Barr's final exam at Langley was to show a bloody suitcase full of infant body parts to a group of helicopter moms, and convince them through droning torrents of fake legalese that they had just seen a cute baby in a stroller.

"Where there is evidence of crime, there is NO evidence of crime."

Barr's skill is to make the most heinous, obvious atrocity and crime appear to be beneath the dignity of public or official notice.

As far as going after unindicted co-conspirators, good luck with that. Langley doesn't train for that.

"You don't actually expect me to prosecute all my FRIENDS? They might jostle my brandy at the oligarch club!"

Smoking barrels now, empathy later!

A headshot is an act of kindness in many situations.

After shooting redneck in HEAD, Hero in Blue can retire in luxury at age of 40. A Fucking While Male eliminated, and emphatic taxpayers should feel good knowing that they will pay policepersons pension at 90% of salary for next 50 years. Win-Win! Empathy rules!

The third issue obstruction of justice has been left an open question (by Mueller) for congress now, and perhaps after Trump is out of office the legal system to determine.

Materially hampering an investigation with intent to hide wrongdoing. That’s obstruction. Trump’s tweets don’t constitute any of that, neither so conversations with staffers about his options. Not to mention that he had no wrongdoing to hide, so pretty hard to prove intent there. Remember, both Barr and Rosenstein who was in on this from the beginning and actually appointed Mueller, agreed that there was no case there for obstruction.

Pelosi will never move to impeach him over this unless she finds something vastly more compelling. Hence the endless and illegal congressional investigations of all of Trump’s business practices for the last forty years.

Show her the man and she will try to show you the crime!

Anyway, she’s not stupid enough to try to impeach a sitting President just to clarify a point of law. Because make no mistake, there is no clear law that finds his actions criminal with respect to obstruction. That would have to be decided and appealed and all that, but what it really would come down to is a Senate vote to toss the whole mess out and get on with business. And she knows that. So this is just political theater, as usual.

Mueller never said the only Golden words that matters for him. "I recommend Criminal Prosecution."

As a prosecutor investigator, Mueller's job is not to exonerate anyone. Trump was not on trial, there is no guilt to assume. So Mueller's job was to find guilt and recommend prosecution. Not release a mealy mouthed report that says. Ah gee, we found nothing but he looks guilty, we don't think he's innocent.

Tenpoundbass says

So Mueller's job

Actually, Mueller's job was to look in to Russia's attempts to hack our election. The Trump campaigns possible involvement with Russia's involvement is a side issue that's only part of what he was asked to investigate.

His findings are his findings. IF they looked in to obstruction, and found that maybe there was obstruction, but that they are not indicting the President, then let that be reported and disclosed in all it's detail. That is the details of what obstruction is in this case, what they found, what is the exact extent, and why they concluded it doesn't rise to the level of an indictment. The public deserves to know the details.

Then we can maybe be done with this. . (not that there won't be other investigations of Trump).

What empathy? Government sucks private sector dry like we are milking cows. Too much government is the problem.

The Mueller Report was abominable political vaporware. However, Trump probably just caved to neocons/paleohawks whatever to get this out of his hair and start preparing for the next election. The deep staters told him they would let him borrow their best obfuscation, evasion, and gaslighting artist as AG to hold the gates. The devil's bargain was probably that none of the conspiracy stuff going back through the CIA, FBI, Steel Dossier, Comey et alia, IHLlary etc. etc. will get prosecuted, either.

There'll be the usual drama, veins that lead nowhere, quashed and ignored crimes, but lots fireworks, sturm und drang, but no resulting imprisonments.

I hope that that is wrong, but I am not optimistic.

Nobody did 'nuffin, and they'll just roll on with the now ingrained and standardized corruptions and war mongerings, pushing on to war with Iran.

I personally wonder what new, horrendous false flags they are planning, in order to relieve us of our final shreds of liberty and freedom. The enemy isn't from without, it is from within.

Couldn't have been that bad. I heard she autographed their fisting gloves.

Actually, Mueller's job was to look in to

His job was to recommend prosecution if he found it. Everything else is just cheap political theatrics, more Jive Ass Ass Politics to hold up the massive bloody legal beat down about to befall on the Establishment the Rats and Cockroaches are scurrying.
Trump is right, the Lying Libs don't get a do over.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

Mueller found lots of collaborative enterprise, all of which would be complicated to prosecute.

Mueller found lots of attempts at obstruction by Trump

Trump obstructed a frame up job. Cry America a fucking river. May Obama shit blood as he that mother fucker hangs by his neck in Gitmo for what he's done.

Gotta love the Lefties. Gov't-forced empathy lol...no wonder they're the party of slavery. The new F word is Freedom.

Empathy Rules. Raise taxes so we get another TSA anally probing all citizens.

Dressed like that, she was clearly asking for it!

They were probably a mite more aggressive, because at her age and experience they just weren't getting enough traction.

Bolton et alia. will probably be detonating a nuclear weapon on American soil to blame Iran and provoke war. We are finally at the fork in the road where our own government's duplicities cause us to regard every nominal atrocity as a false flag of the Administrative Deep State until proven otherwise.

Biden is already slurring words and making Gaffes, such as calling Theresa May "Margeret Thatcher".

If elected, He'll be about 79 years old... on Inauguration Day!

Progressives are taking shots at Joe Biden, seeking to blunt the former vice president’s rise in polls by arguing he is too conservative to be the party's presidential nominee.

The criticism has come from rivals to Biden on the campaign trail as well as liberal groups seeking to put a dent into his poll numbers.

They are casting Biden as an establishment figure out of touch with the grass roots of his party, highlighting his work on a Clinton-era crime bill and the Iraq War, among other issues.

The criticism suggests some angst on the part of progressives, who fear Biden might beat out candidates such as Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who have more liberal voting records than the former vice president.

The latest Hill-HarrisX poll released on Monday found Biden winning 46 percent support and holding a 32-point lead nationally over Sanders, who won 14 percent.

Progressives also say they are worried that Biden will lose to Trump, even as the former vice president makes electability the centerpiece of his campaign.

They argue a dyed-in-the-wool progressive has the best chance of energizing voters against Trump, and that Biden could fall to the wayside just as Hillary Clinton did in 2016.

“I think that people’s initial, and main concern is that he is out of step with the primary electorate and is going to have the same problems that Clinton did with motivating the base and being the best candidate to run against Trump,” said one Democratic strategist. “And then that got turbocharged by him jumping out to an early lead, and all of the [news] articles about people being focused on ‘electability’ and that again is going to be another Clinton campaign redux.”

Sanders is drawing a clear distinction between himself and Biden in interviews.

Buttkreig: "America Never As Great As Advertised".

Previously in April, he said “The country as a whole is effectively segregated by race and the resources are different. There is a direct connection between exclusion in the past and exclusion in the present,” Buttigieg explained.

Then die it is.

“In fact, year after year, Mr. Trump appears to have lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer.”

We're # 1, We're # 1, USA, USA, USA

I "lose" money on my real estate income each year too.

Its true you can show a tax loss and still cash flow with commercial real estate due mainly to depreciation, That amounts to about 3% a year. But this seems way, way beyond that. And beware when you sell the guberment claws back those tax losses as ordinary income, that is a bitch. Of course if you take BK that clears the slate but then you cant get loans...or can you? Calling Deutsche Bank

Trump just doesn't want people to read the line item deductions for 'urinating hookers' and 'Putin gratuities'.

Yes, historically the US has not been much of an exporter. In WW2 those weren't washing machines and toasters going to Europe.

Mostly, we've made our own consumer goods and exported wheat, barley, copper, etc. - raw materials.

People don't understand the reason we were the Arsenal of Democracy in WW2 was because International Harvester could go from making 1000s of tractors to 1000s of tanks. RCA went from making AM Radios to making Radars.

Unfortunately, Coldwell Banker Paperwork and Facebook Ads cannot be transformed into Tanks and Radars. But in China, where they now make Tractors and Radios, they sure can.

Well of course he did. He is so modest he doesn't want the a report made public that is a "total exoneration" it might make the Dems feel sad about all the nasty things they have said about him. Such a fine Christian gentleman. His halo glows a bit brighter today.

Trump sent a vid of himself jangling the keys of the Oval Office washroom laughing and singing "They're mine, ALL mine!" to annoy and exacerbate the hearings.

It's OK, but it needs lots more 'wanton' and 'lascivious'.

"We need those redacted names so that 'soon to be prosecuted' Democrats can start making preparations to flee to non-extraditable countries with the numbers of their offshore and Swiss bank accounts penned to their palms!"

"Strange, Obama has been talking about becoming an Indonesian Muslim again!"

Is IPA ok?

One of the shooters was a tranny and big liberal and Obama supporter.

People with mental illnesses shouldn't have guns.

I absolutely agree that mentally ill should not have access to guns or knives.

We have homeless running around with knives, and most of them have knives. Shit is legitimately unstable.

Trump has been busy stacking the 9th Circuit with conservative judges. He didn’t forget how they treated him at the start of his Presidency. He just added judges until the panels are going to be more often conservative leaning than not.

Not that this decision was in any way partisan or unlawful. It was a good and right and reasonable decision, considering that Mexico is not a dangerous country for asylum seekers, and we have no obligation to house everyone in the world who seeks asylum.

This is good news, as it gives Mexico proper incentive to not allow migrants entry into Mexico in the first place — they will be Meico's problem. Best for Mexico to turn them around at the (much smaller and so more defensible) southern Mexico border.

That's awesome news, that means 43% plan on reelecting him.

Trump is winning again! 85 percent polled believe that IHLlary is guilty of treason. "She's a treasonous cunt. But, she's OUR treasonous cunt!"

That is a big drop. What happened?
