Yes, he knew bottling up the report would create an outcry, so they spun the findings with the 4 pager to let Trump take his victory lap and manipulate public opinion. This was so unsettling to the investigators it prompted several to speak out and for Mueller to write more that one formal letters scolding Barr.

Even Chris Wallace -- perhaps the most credible journalist working today -- spoke out against his own network over the issue.



Barr even lied during House testimony about this exact issue. He misled about the President fully cooperating, he's fundamentally misrepresented much of the report and has failed to admit anything in it critical to the President when questioned. Trump has shown if they can just confuse the heck out of everyone and charge forward it's very difficult to pin them down.

This is where the US Constitution is supposed to be the firewall, but the AG is working to undermine the rule of law. He needs to go...
"It's all part of a misinformation strategy to protect Trump."

Where is the Misinformation? I don't see what Barr said, that's contradicted in the Mueller report. Do you?

Could be, that people like you, only care about results, not the truth.

"Even Chris Wallace -- perhaps the most credible journalist working today -- spoke out against his own network over the issue."

Chris Wallace is also reporting that Mueller called Barr, and said that Barr's conclusions were not inaccurate.

If his conclusions were accurate, then we are arguing about tone and suggestions. Who cares.

There's not much here Spence. Mueller declined to indict, Barr stated there wasn't sufficient evidence to charge with a crime.
You want to spend a year shrieking about whether a semi-colon belongs in one spot instead of a hyphon, or debating the use of the word "shall" instead of "may", knock yourself out.
