Attorney General William Barr stressed Thursday during his press conference that although Special counsel Robert Mueller detailed 10 episodes involving actions by President Trump that might have constituted obstruction of justice, neither the DOJ, nor Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein believed those actions violated the law.
Barr said based on the evidence that Trumps action had non-corrupt motives. The redacted version of Muellers report was released late Thursday. The very few redactions in the behemoth report show the reasons for the decisions, which were based on recommendations made by the intelligence community, DOJ and Mueller prosecutors to protect classified information, sources and methods and information pertaining to ongoing litigation.
The roughly 400 page report is what it is and now it is available for the public. After more than two years and national media consumption of every rumor possible the investigation has concluded that neither President Trump, anyone on his campaign and no American colluded with Russia to influence the 2016 election.
....................
What is left, however, are multiple chapters still left to be written. What will unfold is investigation into what historians will consider one of the greatest political witch-hunts in U.S. history. If justice is served, those responsible will be outed and prosecuted.
Those officials who weaponized the intelligence community, approved unauthorized surveillance on American citizens based on unvalidated information and targeted a sitting president should fear the wrath of lady justice.

Hillary is a sick old drunk who couldn't even beat "Obama" eleven years ago. She was a dangerous person in 1993, but hasn't been for many years.
She was simply tool in 2016, a means to continue a third and hopefully fourth Obama term with her and the First Dude running their international graft operation from 1600 while the whole secret government continued from the Kalorama White House.
When she couldn't even win a fixed election, they threw her away like a broken toy.
Nope. Never said anything about Barr. For or against.
It’s not about Trump. It’s about the fact that in the end the parties protect each other so they can protect themselves. It’s about an entrenched bureaucracy that will NOT change, it’s about careerists that make sure nothing changes. I do pay attention. In all truth he has actually changed ANYTHING in your list. DC is still run by the careerist, the swamp is still full, and his clock is ticking down, and the party of the sitting president still lost seats in the midterm. 6 years from now he’ll, they’ll still be in place, and things will continue on the way they always have. They know it. I know it. You’ve been led to water, drink, don’t, doesn’t bother me.
his inaugural speech was a fine statement of purpose. The problem is his whole plan is to spit in the wind. Oh sure, plenty of folks could have survived that. The fact of the matter is his win followed the normal pattern. A party gets the White House for 2 terms, then the other guys get the shot. Read a great article, right here on FR, back in 2003 about the very strong trend in presidential elections. In that article they said that the Dem nominee, no matter who it was, in 2008 would win. And then they said the GOP nominee, no matter who it was, in 2016 would win.
Not sucking my thumb about anything. Just pointing out reality. Reality is pols don’t get punished. That’s how things work here. That’s how they’ve worked here for a long time. When push comes to shove NEITHER party wants the other to face a reckoning because they know some day they’ll be out of power and they don’t want to face a reckoning. So there’s big talk, half assed “investigations”, and everybody moves on. That’s life. I’m not upset about it. I’m just pointing out to all you folks that insist this time for sure that the moose NEVER pulled a rabit out of that hat.
None so blind as he who does not want to see.
That would be you. Show me a pol that’s actually faced consequences? Until you can do that my point stands. There will be no justice. There will be no reckoning. And you’re just jerking off to wishful thinking.
You apparently read no actual news about what Trump is doing.
So be it.
I see what’s really happening. Has Hillary been locked up yet? Comey? Obama?
According to the hopeless defeatists, Trump is a feebling, bumbling fool without any authority or power, hemmed in by evil geniuses who are controlling him.
Keep a close did on your mailbox because that Publishers Clearing House check will arrive the same day Hillary is charged with a crime.
They have pills for that.
No he isn't but Hillary will still not go to jail and the bad people are still working at Justice and FBI.
I will happily eat crow if she ever is held to account, will you if she isn't?

They have pills for that.
Yea, I heard that too.
Want one?
As I recall old Free Republic from 2000 forward it was of course far more traffic
And split freeper wise on Bush immigration reform which was amnesty more or less
Lorded over to a large degree by sinkspur and howlin and illbay and Dane and bayourod who race baited with complete and utter abandon and who could when the planets were aligned force a zot on those they targeted over amnesty such as myself and others
I do miss the libertarians and the in house intrigue....where is one particular harbor I wonder..he was only one of many lol who stirred the pot of when Freepers actually got to know each other in person
I prefer now I just there were more of us
bump
Different rules for Republicans and Democrats: part of the UniParty facade.
The last two years show that. Manafort: solitary. Podesta: protected.
Does anyone even remember Tom DeLay besides me? That and Nunes: double standards.
“And how many years did it take for the penny ante creeps in Watergate to face justice?”
IIRC a bit less than two years from the day of the break-in.
Great thread, LJ. The President agrees with you.

....big, fat, waste of time, energy and money - $30,000,000 to be exact. It is now finally time to turn the tables and bring justice to some very sick and dangerous people who have committed very serious crimes, perhaps even Spying or Treason. This should never happen again! 1:47 PM - 19 Apr 2019
Trump can walk and chew gum at the same time... he can make the country great AND go after the thugs who thought they had the right to unseat a duly elected President.
