The Barr Letter says Mueller did not make a determination of whether Trump obstructed justice. It sets out both sides. But Barr concludes— on his determination — that there was no obstruction. How did he do that without trying to interview Trump? Full report now needs to come out

The American people are entitled to see the Mueller report, and its underlying documentation, for themselves. They do not need or want the Trump Administration to summarize, sanitize, or spin the report. They simply want the truth.

I'm not sure why people ARE NOT BLOODY READING the entire thing and ARE NOT UNDERSTANDING what is going on. I couldn't have been clearer today. THIS IS BARR'S SUMMARY it is NOT Mueller's report. Mueller LEFT CONCLUSIONS TO DOJ, BARR REFUSED TO INDICT TRUMP AND LEFT IT TO CONGRESS

Recall that Barr sent an unsolicited 20-page memo last June to the DOJ that excoriated Mueller's probe of whether Trump obstructed justice, saying it was based on a "fatally misconceived theory," per @sgurman @aviswanatha. Trump tapped Barr as AG in Dec.

No, @NikkiHaley we do not “have to acknowledge that” Trump publicly delegitimized the investigation ON A DAILY BASIS. He sought to fire Mueller, derided Rosenstein, and tampered with witnesses. You will always bear the shame of how you normalized a criminal presidency.
