Now it's time to listen to all the Dems/people that said how honorable and trustworthy and the right guy to lead this Muller was to the opposite of that.


I've seen none of this.

All i've seen is a call to release the entire report, instead of a "summary" of a man appointed by Trump.

Because no one gets on the internet at home? On the weekends?

But, you may well be right. People arent very rational about this whole thing.

Her 14 year old brother, also a citizen, was detained for a short period too, but was released after being forced by CBP to sign a document saying she was his cousin, under threat of being charged with human trafficking and sex trafficking. My link

Yeah, you all know this by now, I think, but you guys seriously need to get rid of ICE.
Screw you all, and have a nice day!

You've just entirely lost your attachment to reality. Even a modicum of reading would tell you this is not what the report says. Do you just grab the headline from your favourite rightwing twitter account and run from there?

Despite the inconclusiveness of the report regarding his alleged obstruction of justice, the president said it constituted "complete and total exoneration".

He would have had to read it first...I highly doubt he had the attention span or intelligence to do so.

I just straight up ignore Nico as a troll now. It's easier.

BK literally the only people who have been calling Mueller and his integrity into question are Trump and his sycophants for the past few months.

Here's a twitter feed to read that delves into how this is not the bad news we all assume it is, and it's not the victory lap Trump and Co want to make it out to be:

Distilled: Barr cherry picked info for 4 pages out of the entire report, and not even one complete sentence from the Mueller report is in it. He basically looked at it, and was like "nothing to see here, guys!"

Subpoena the full report, and get Mueller to testify...and the real fireworks ought to come from the SDNY anyways.

Exactly. My first reaction to seeing the news break was to go and see what Seth Abramson said about it haha

Seems pretty level headed about this stuff.

Some breaking news blurb just announced that Michael Avanatti has been arrested in an extortion scheme involving 20 million dollars.


Crazy how high this guy soared only to crash and burn. A year ago people were talking about him as a potential democratic presidential nominee.

Every time Trump declares that no president should have to go through "this", a person in the back should shout "does that mean you owe Obama an appology?!"

Wow, pretty rare. I wonder if he's gonna address the two survivors of the Parkland shooting and the father of the Sandy Hook victim who all committed suicide this past week and the way trauma and grief ripple and last long after the gun massacres themselves, or perhaps he'll announce a new program aimed at combating the rise of Islamophobia in the wake of Christchurch. Or maybe he's gonna go right into talking about himself. Hard to guess.
