Fake news outlets are claiming that Mueller would have concluded that Trump was guilty of obstruction if DOJ policy had allowed him to do so. --
Mueller phrased and continues to phrase his remarks to facilitate this false conclusion by the press. He also appears to contradict himself, but in a way that casts Barr as the liar when Barr reports what Mueller told him, three times, emphatically.

It concerns me that Barr keeps using the phrase hyper-partisan period. As if he expects this too shall pass.

I'll add, it would be an easy enough position to take. "We and the grand jury found probable cause to believe the presidnt obstructed justice, but DOJ policy preculdes indicitng a sitting president." I mean, Starr found crimes by Clinton but did not indict. I know the legal framework Starr worked under was different from Mueller's, so Starr drrafting but not publiushing or filing an indictment is just academic curiosity - still, nothing prevents the DOJ from asserting it would indict a sitting president, but for the policy, all other elements being met.

"Im sorry I read that whole thing. Im a bit edgy over Barrs seeming bending over backwards to let Bob slide and give him the benefit of the doubt. Barr is NOT a disinterested umpire. Hes been buds with Bob for 30 years, and ditto lots of others. So my apprehension is; Will Barr, et al, finnesse this thing so that Nobody had evil intentions. Everybody meant well. And so every one those bahstids gets a pass."

God, I hope that does not come to pass. If it does, the next generations of Americans are screwed. Welcome to the USSR.

Thanks. One of MSDNC’s hosts showed a clip of the beginning of Barr’s interview and then claimed that Barr said “he would prefer” Mueller conclude that Trump was guilty. A steaming pantload among many others in the media.
