Barr's letter to Congress about Special Counsel Report

This is Barr's characterization of the Mueller Report - not the Report itself!

This is the same Attorney General who has already submitted an unsolicited 17 page critique of the Mueller Investigation to the White House in June 2018 - which is widely viewed as the overriding reason as to why he received this appointment!

Barr's letter to Congress fails to provide even 1 direct quote from the original report to substantiate the Mueller shares this interpretation - a grave omission given that this Attorney General has already "telegraphed" his personal opinions and biases!

Yeah considering AG Barr sent an unsolicited 18 page memo to the Justice department saying that Mueller couldn't find the President guilty of obstruction, the right thing in this case is to share the actual report at least with Congress. From what I understand, Barr based his determination that Trump didn't actually conspire, so he couldn't obstruct because there was no base crime to cover up. That looks like it might be accurate as far as the law is concerned, but imo any attempt to interfere in a criminal investigation should be impeachable, and we won't know if Trump did or not because the evidence has not been released.
