The Libs are apoplectic; grasping at straws. They'll never give up, just continue the Lib Narrative. So we'll get another year and a half of The Libs and Lib Media on a wild goose chase.

Obstruction is the new Collusion.

(This is paraphrased from Mark Levin)

They'll be digging into his bank accounts, digging into his taxes. His lawyers can say there was No Collusion with Russia. And the Libs will say, But there was Obstruction. He'll fight that every step of the way to protect the office of the president, to protect us and the Constitution. The Libs will be calling for Impeachment, but there was no high crimes and misdemeanors.)

Media-Democrat complex whines over AG Barr’s press conference on Mueller report release

[www.foxnews.com]

The caterwauling over the press conference called by the Justice Department so Attorney General William Barr can formally announce the release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report is another unabashed demonstration of the real collusion played out over the last three years: the media and the Democrats.

“Extraordinary” is undoubtedly the word that fits the report’s release. “Utterly routine” is just as surely the apt description of the press conference.

The Justice Department always holds press conferences to announce major decisions, particularly about prosecutorial judgments that are being made public. Here, there is patently more reason than usual for a presser.

First, the report involves something that would ordinarily not be made public. When the Justice Department does not charge a person with a crime, guidelines call for prosecutors to remain silent. When the FBI – which serves as our nation’s domestic security service as well as its premier law enforcement organization – has conducted (or is conducting) a counterintelligence investigation of a foreign power, as it has (and is) in connection with Russia’s efforts to meddle in American elections, such matters are classified and not spoken of publicly. Departure from these protocols warrants an explanation from the attorney general.

Second, Mueller’s report is said to be nearly 400 pages in length. Clearly, it will be read closely by the press, legal analysts, Trump administration advisers, members of Congress and their staffs, and some members of the public. The vast majority of Americans, however, will not read the report – certainly not the entire report. That does not mean most of them are indifferent to it as an important news and public policy matter. In such circumstances, it is standard fare for the Justice Department to hold a press conference and issue a press release.

Third, the report has been redacted to account for (a) grand jury material, (b) classified information (particularly about methods and sources of intelligence), (c) the desire not to compromise ongoing investigations, and (d) the privacy interests of peripheral people somehow connected to, but not charged in, the investigation. Obviously, the manner in which those redactions are conveyed in the report is something that needs to be explained. Since the attorney general is ultimately responsible for the redactions, his thinking on the matter ought to be welcome.

Fourth, Special Counsel Mueller did not make one of the main prosecutorial judgments his appointment called for – the decision whether there were legal grounds and sufficient evidence to warrant obstruction of justice charges against the president. Since that conclusion is not part of the report, but Attorney General Barr and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein have declined to charge based on the report, the press conference is an opportunity to elaborate on the rationale for this decision, aided by the public release of the facts uncovered by the investigation.

Fifth, while the Mueller probe is over, Justice Department investigations attendant to the probe are not. They merit a status report. A number of Mueller cases have been spun off to other Justice Department components. The Justice Department inspector general is looking into controversial aspects of the FBI and Justice Department’s investigative decisions and tactics; and a Justice Department prosecutor, Utah U.S. attorney John Huber, has a parallel ongoing investigation.

Moreover, Attorney General Barr has indicated that he will be directing an investigation that focuses, among other things, on the factual predicate that purportedly justified the Obama administration’s highly unusual decision to use foreign counterintelligence authorities (and other investigative powers) to scrutinize a political campaign – a probe that would not be limited to the FBI and Justice Department decision-making but that would assess the actions of, for instance, other intelligence agencies. (Note that former CIA director John Brennan’s own account, he played a key role in spurring the investigation. To say the least, it is highly unusual for the CIA to enmesh itself in a U.S. political campaign.)

This truly is media-Democrat complex collusion. Does anyone doubt that, if Attorney General Eric Holder – instead of, say, stonewalling to the point of being cited for contempt of Congress – had held a press conference about to announce a report on the Fast-and-Furious scandal, the press would have been there with bells on – armed with their Obama administration talking points?

How remarkable to hear Democrats and their media friends – authors of the years-long “collusion with Russia” narrative that is increasingly exposed to be an effort to rationalize Hillary Clinton’s defeat and undermine Donald Trump’s presidency – bleat that it’s the attorney general who is spinning.

If they’re moving their lips, they’re projecting.

So looks like The Libs can take the Mueller Report and stick it up their a*s...

Absolutely No Legal Basis for any Collusion and NO OBSTRUCTION.

FACT - If the report found NO Evidence of Collusion, therefore NO Crime; then there could not be Obstruction of something that did not exist.

'Volume II Is Crap': Levin Blasts Mueller for '200-Page Op-Ed' on Obstruction in Report

[insider.foxnews.com]

Mark Levin said Friday that the second part of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report on Trump-Russia collusion is "crap" and simply an "op-ed" on the former FBI director's thoughts about obstruction of justice.

"Obstruction was not the purpose of the investigation," Levin, host of "Life, Liberty & Levin," said. "He didn't have an obstruction case against the president of the United States or he would've brought [one]."

"That is why we have a court of law. That is why prosecutors, dammit, are not supposed to write essays like this."

Levin said that there is little of litigatory significance in Mueller's discussion of instances involving ex-Trump White House Counsel Donald McGahn and others.

"Volume II [of the report] is crap. Volume II was written for slip-and-fall lawyer [Jerrold] Nadler and slip-and-fall lawyer [Adam] Schiff."

Levin said that Mueller knew the media would "run with" the salacious context of the second volume of the report.

He said that the obstruction-related material consisted of "he-said-she-said" allegations that "no prosecutor" would ever think to bring before a judge.

Watch more above.

********

"The Mueller report found NO evidence of Collusion, the original Mandate for his "Special Investigation." So, if there was no such underlying Crime of "Collusion," there was nothing about which to "Obstruct."

So looks like The Libs can take the Mueller Report and stick it up their a*s...

Jennifer Tourette Syndrome?

Sure hope Barr investigates the Obama Cabal for his spying on the Trump Campaign and The Libs attempted Coup against the President of the United States.

Levin Sounds Off on Mueller Report: $35 Million, 200 Pages to Say 'No Collusion'

Says 'impeachment report' written for Dems, media.

[insider.foxnews.com]

Mark Levin reacted to the release of the Mueller report in an extended opening monologue on "Life, Liberty & Levin."

He called out Mueller for writing more than 200 pages on a "phony" narrative about Trump-Russia collusion, but never alleging a criminal conspiracy.

"There’s no collusion, says the Special Counsel. That takes one sentence. It doesn't take 200 damn pages! It doesn’t take $35 million dollars," said Levin, arguing the report was written for CNN and MSNBC and for top House Democrats like Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler.

The report quickly triggered calls from some Democrats for impeachment proceedings in the House of Representatives, specifically over Mueller's findings on possible obstruction of justice by Trump.

Levin said Mueller's findings were essentially an "impeachment report," and the actions of the mainstream media and Democrats are a "disgrace."

"There was no reason to appoint Mueller and Mueller found nothing," he said, arguing that should be the headline, but instead the media is turning to the obstruction of justice narrative.

Levin said the White House could have asserted executive privilege to prevent current and former staffers from talking to Mueller's team, but the president did not.

"He's the only president in modern history who did not once assert any presidential privilege, including executive privilege, to prevent documents or people around him, including his own White House lawyer, from talking to Mueller," said Levin.
