WNU Editor: An eight minute talk where nothing new was disclosed. And the lead story should be that his probe is over, and that he has nothing to add to the report .... no collusion, and no obstruction. But because he worded his presentation that he could not charge the President (so why the entire probe?), and stressed that he's not confident that President Trump didn’t commit a crime, his innuendos will be the lead story for today. Bottom line. When you say this .... "if we had had confidence that (Trump) clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so" .... what he really means is that he did commit a crime, but we cannot prove it. I have met people who have wanted to nail people, and Robert Mueller is clearly someone who wants to do just that on President Trump. But after 500 interviews, 1,200 subpoenas, and seizing millions of documents, he could not because he has no evidence.
He also does not want to testify to Congress. The prospect of facing Republicans and their questions on how he conducted this probe is clearly a road that he does not want to go down. I also expect the media narrative today will be to target Attorney General Barr, and that he misrepresented Mueller's findings. AG Barr's investigation on how this entire affair started, from spying on the Trump campaign in 2016, to the evidence and rational that was used in justifying it, has started. And what better way to discredit what will be uncovered than to discredit the man who is leading it.
So what is next? This is just another phase in the push to get rid of President Trump. Robert Mueller was clear in his remarks today that he wants Congress to now handle this, which means impeachment. And even though the Republican controlled Senate has made it clear that impeachment will not be brought up, and the majority of Americans do not want impeachment, the Democrat controlled House of Representatives will still begin this process and push it to the 2020 Presidential election.
