and our institutions to check an autocrat.

14. In that case the Republican Senate would have been holding fair and open hearings.

This is about political power, Mueller was never going to save us. He did his job and now he's fading back into the scenery.

4. Sounds like house Democrats should subpoena Mueller

5. Known, bottom line part is Mueller decided to leave a decision of law up to political appointees

Instead of determining law which he was totally capable of doing.

10. exactly.

6. Didn't I specifically hear that Barr was GOING to consult w/ Mueller about this letter? Or am I

incorrect about that?

13. Barr's letter

is not the report.

Nixon tried pulling the same crap with the Watergate tapes.

15. If Mueller thought trump were guilty, he should have said so explicitly in his report.

16. Hey Mueller! Do you think a face to face interview w/Individual-1 could

have yielded any valuable evidence?

17. This strikes me as rebutting a non-claim.

The letter doesn't claim to have consulted Mueller. I'm unaware of Barr saying he consulted Mueller (and while that could be a gap in knowledge, around here that's the kind of thing that would be bricked and mortared into place within femtoseconds).

There's a claim that the report under a different provision of the rules will have been written with Mueller, but that wasn't Barr's claim and doesn't involve this letter.
