    I suspect you're just trolling at this point, but again, here's the relevant paragraph from the summary with my own emphasis added:

    "After reviewing the Special Counsel's final report on these issues; consulting with Department officials, including the Office of Legal Counsel; and applying the principles of federal prosecution that guide our charging decisions, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and I have concluded that the evidence developed during the Special Counsel's investigation is not sufficient to establish that the President committed an obstruction-of-justice offense. Our determination was made without regard to, and is not based on, the constitutional considerations that surround the indictment and criminal prosecution of a sitting president."

    You're basically accusing the entire DOJ, including a number of anti-Trumpers and Obama hold-outs, of perpetrating a cover-up. It's absurd.

            It's not an investigator's job to exonerate anyone. It's a prosecutor's. See Comey/Lynch.

                Mueller neither condemned nor exonerated but left it an open question to be decided by the Attorney General due to insufficient evidence; the Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General, after consulting with the heads of the Department of Justice, chose not to press charges for the same reason cited by Mueller: insufficient evidence to make a case. That's all the exoneration Trump needs.

                  Nothing is being kept in the dark. There's just nothing there to shine a light on.

                      All of that is speculation.

                        No it's not. It's clearly spelled out in Barr's summary. Did you even bother reading it?

                        • It is kind of ironic that all of a sudden Mueller is the republican's best friend and the democrat's worst enemy. A month ago it was the opposite.

                              Oh, I don't think he's the Republicans' best friend, and certainly not Trump's. I just think he knew better than to stick his neck out with phony charges when he had to answer to an AG who was willing to take his head off. Now if Jeff Sessions was still AG, I think things would have played out significantly differently.

                                I was referring to the white house and conservatives (including you and me) saying what a snake Mueller is and how he is misusing his powers and we can't trust him, etc, while the liberals were claiming he was honest and on their side and was going to stick it to Trump and then we will see what a traitor Trump was. And now we conservatives are defending Mueller and the liberals are hating him.
