16. IMO the report was truncated as it ended a month after Barr started.

It's pretty apparent he cut it short. trump jr. certainly should've been called to testify about the trump tower meeting where he was expecting to get dirt on Hillary, and of course the White House counsel should've been called.

Never the less there were 10 instances of obstruction outlined in Part Two of the report. Too bad Barr put out his false and exculpatory brief on the report before releasing it, and it is also too bad Mueller didn't get past his obedient Marine mindset of just being the good soldier and said: "Fuck this shit, this orange crook is guilty as sin and I'm indicting his ass."
