So, there are two words that always need to be kept at the forefront when
discussing anything like this...intent and precedent.
They will continue to come up as we hear about this and they have
been coming up all through the last two years.
I don't want to compose a long post here so I am going to just point
to a few things in the event that Pat or Marc read this.
1. This report shows without question that Trump had intent to break
the law, over and over and over and over again. He had intent to obstruct
justice, over and over and over and over and over again.
2. It shows he lied about what he was doing, over and over and over
and over again.
3. It shows that several laws were not broken ONLY BECAUSE people
disobeyed Trumps orders when he asked them to do things that were way out
of bounds.
4. It shows Bill Barr intentionally attempted to mislead the American
people and openly lied about what is in the report both in his initial
written summary and then his outrageous bogus news conference on the day
he released the redacted report.
5. It shows a pattern of potential criminal activity in the 14
referrals to other prosecutors listed in the report, 12 of which we do
not yet know what they involve because that information was part of what
was redacted.
Mueller specifically states in the report that it is Congress that needs
to address the president's abuse of his office and authority and that he
will make no such finding.
He clearly sets the standard for the report at exonerate or not
exonerated when it comes to Trump. This is explained right at the start
of the report and that if they could exonerate Trump with what they found
they would state in the report he was exonerated.
The report states that due to the evidence they uncovered Trump could
not be exonerated. It lays out the evidence and substantial information
pointing to Trump's intent to make it clear that Congress now needs to
address Trump's abuses and assess them as high crimes and misdemeanors
that require impeachment proceedings.
This is what the report finds. Because Mueller's findings on Trump were
he was not exonerated this means it is now the job of the Congress, their
oversight function, to now have a series of hearings about the evidence
in the report and move to impeachment proceedings if they determine Trump
abused the office and his powers.
According to the Mueller report, he did, numerous times. We have a
clear path to impeachment.
This is also in part why all findings and evidence in the report need
to be presented to Congress without redactions.
