He's busy memorizing Weismann's report, and that ain't easy for an old guy to do. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barr is afraid of something. You think that Barr's gambit is worse than Mueller announcing that he's going to make a statement without informing his superior first?

Barr is afraid of something. If Mueller doesn't stick to the report - if his testimony adds to it, or changes it in any way - it impugns his entire investigation. They're certainly not afraid of him diverging from the report. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barr's letter is to help Mueller in his ability to refuse to expound upon what is in the report. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeginnersMind Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) Let’s hope this is finally the end of an important inquiry turned spectacle. Mueller clearly has nothing new to share and already will be sticking to the report. If someone wants to start impeachment for obstruction, they are not getting more from Mueller than they already have. Pelosi has indicated that she has no appetite for impeachment, a position I hope she sticks to. Edited July 23, 2019 by BeginnersMind 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2019/07/23/the_mueller_reports_footnotes_to_contradictory_119658.html It was in the footnotes, for example, where the FBI appears to have misled the FISA court in its application to spy on Carter Page – obscuring its reliance on opposition research, the Steele dossier, financed by the Hillary Clinton campaign. The more than 2,000 footnotes included in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Trump-Russia collusion allegations are also illuminating. Most of the citations are matter-of-fact support for claims made in the main text. But a close reading reveals that many of the footnotes raise more questions than they answer, especially regarding Mueller’s methods and intent. Some footnotes show that key allegations often rely on the flimsy say-so of media accounts; others show a willingness to accept the claims of anti-Trump critics at face value. Mueller and his team also used the footnotes as the place to include unsubstantiated gossip and speculation. Mueller has made it clear that during his scheduled testimony before Congress on Wednesday, he will not discuss his investigation beyond the “four corners” of his official report. But those four corners encompass not only the main text, but thousands of footnotes. If Robert Mueller is going to defend his document, he will have to be prepared to defend the footnotes too. It is there where the strengths and weaknesses of the Mueller report are most clearly on display. Come Wednesday’s hearings, the advantage may go to the questioners who know where to look. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The case was almost tossed, no one on the prosecution side could say this guy broke a specific law and they acknowledged they had no evidence that the Turkish government paid him, and still the jury found him guilty. Remember Flynn worked with the government to make the case against them. They tried to throw him back into the mix of this case when his new counsel starting making waves in the FBI perjury matter, but Flynn wasn't defendant (he was bait).

Deranged Rhino Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 (This goes in multiple threads -- but especially this one and the DS ones considering how often I was told I was nuts for saying what I knew to be a fact, verified by people who are paid to know) This means the entire G-Pop stuff was entrapment, unjustified -- which, since they have been VERY clear the past two years that G-Pop was the start of the whole shebang, means the CI investigation was baseless from the start. Everyone is *****. 4 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Laughing at this news as if it's nothing only proves you didn't read the report -- or much of anything about the origin of the counterintelligence investigation into Trump's campaign, which the FBI had been using as a shield/justification for their FISA *****ery for over two years. If you disagree, explain to board how Mifsud being proven to be a western intelligence asset who was tasked with introducing GP to Russians is not utterly devastating to the entire foundation of the narrative which has been pushed on the public. Every single news outlet referred to him as a Russian tied asset for years -- and Mueller did as well. Oops. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
