Mueller report handed over

First reports suggest that it's what Spence would call, a big fat nothingburger.

Unless reports are way off...

meanwhile, the Obama justice dept relied on a garbage dossier funded by Hilary, to spy on an american citizen and to allege he was a traitor. nothing to see there, move along.

it was a very good story for them
to cling to. So what if it bankrupted a ge w fellow citizens who didn’t do anything wrong? They were working for Hilary’s opponent, and therefore deserve to be called traitors on TV.

and it was a long night on msnbc and cnn last night. once again, the trump haters in the media have egg on their faces, and Trump is still there, another victory over them.

Chris Matthews really went off the deep end.

Only conservatives can call an investigation that has how many convictions of Trumps people and call it a nothing burger

But bengiza was clearly Hillary's fault and the outrage over the lie it was because of a video by the Obama administration's. Which ended in no convictions or anything

If people like jim and dangle were honest enough to apply the logic to Muller's report as they did bengiza investigation . Or hilliarys email and lock her up rally cry... they may have some credibility on calling this a nothing burger .. but they do not

They have fell for the Trump narrative of only one question matters did trump collude (singular just him) .. ignoring who is the captain of the ship

The convictions are a tough pill to swallow. Trump seems to be surrounded by a cadre if "grey area" people. However unless I am wrong and I am sure someone will let me know. Nothing has been proved that either Trump was involved with their own personal illegal activity or that the Russians got him elected. So there's that. I have my own idea which I think is pretty darn nifty. Lets have both parties focus on running the country and the world the best they can in an atmosphere of mutual discussion and debate focusing on bringing the best ideas forward to make this a better nation. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Sorry if you just spit your coffee all over your screen.

Not even Barr has delivered the primary report conclusions, you guys must have some really good connections to have gotten such an early look. Even if Trump turns out to be the deaf and dumb recipient of others attempts to gain a political advantage by communicating with the Russians, there very well be damaging information in the report congress will move forward on. New York is still probably his biggest concern, I’m happy that in the near future we won’t have to hear the no collusion war cry.

Let’s keep in mind all the indictments prove the Russians interfered and attempted to collude with the Trump campaign and yet I don’t think this administration has really increased funding and efforts to address the hacking efforts that continue by Russia and others.

Russian help him win the elections ( that was a Republican narrative) influenced the elections happened

Pompeo says God may have sent Trump to save Israel from Iran

If you can find one post I made regarding either bengiza or hillarys emails then you might actually have a point. But you won’t find it because I did not throw a temper tantrum at every mis step. Now, you will throw another hissy fit alleging the investigation is incomplete somehow? That wolf you saw still looks like sheep....and when you point at me regarding honesty,there are four fingers pointing at the man in the mirror. Dishonest,corrupt,immoral...these are all words to describe the dog and pony show the dems have been putting on for years. This time it was even more of a nothing burger than the Kavanaugh charade. What a waste of resources.

for two years, we’ve been told the lie that there were crimes. the indictments handed down, were for crimes
committed during, not before, the investigation. while those crimes
need to be punished, it’s wirth noting that there have been zero i dicemts related to collusion. everyone in the media, again, was wrong. and stupid. and partisan.

i watched
msnbc last night, that’s the extent of my connections. it was almost as glorious as watching them on election night, and when Maddow broke the “scoop” on his tax returns.

Some parts might have been true, but it was considered to be a mix
of truth, half truths, and falsifications. That is what disinformation is and it is wonderful at paralyzing things around it. What we are waiting to find is whether or not DJT asked the RUS for help to defeat HRC.

What were the convictions for? None (yet) were for Trump's people colluding with RUS, they were for lying to FBI.

I'll use Vox so all y'all can think it is legit

Talk about jumping the gun, without even a definitive conclusion reported from Barr, the right and Fox in particular says the fact there are no further indictments; this clears Trump and his campaign staff of any collusion. That is so typical, say it enough times and it must be true. There will be a lot of egg on their face if one of the conclusions is that Trump while not directing the collusion, did unwittingly (which I find hard to believe with the families admitted involvement) collude with the Russians to impact the election. Mueller may also be unwilling to indicte a sitting president and may feel the seeds he has sown with NY and DC, may bear better fruit. His scope was very narrow and the bigger trouble for Trump and his family are outside of that special investigation.
