Russian Interference in the 2016 U.S Presidential Election.
"The Special Counsel's investigation did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russian in its efforts to influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election. As the report states: "[T]he investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities." 1
1 In assessing potential charges, the Special Counsel also considered whether members of the "Trump campaign "coordintated with Russian election interference activities. The Special Counsel defined "coordination" as an "agreement -- tacit or express -- between the Trump Campaign and the Russian govermnet on election interference."
I'm still reading the rest of barr's garbage but you get the gist, I'm sure: We are all well and truly fucked. The investigation is and always was a sham. We need to take BOTH houses of congress and The White House in 2020 and not by bullshit blue dog reducible margins - by VETO PROOF MARGINS - if we have any hope of circumventing what now appears to be the inevitable.
