If so, it won’t make a difference, because Democrats are still going to lose their minds and claim there’s a coverup and conspiracy and stuff, because they still can’t get over Hillary losing to Donald, and they still feel that he totes colluded and obstructed in the same manner a fan of a football team believes they can win the Super Bowl despite being 2-6. It could totally happen, right, guys?

Mueller report will be lightly redacted, offering detailed look at Trump’s actions

The Justice Department plans to release a lightly redacted version of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s 400-page report Thursday, offering a granular look at the ways in which President Trump was suspected of having obstructed justice, people familiar with the matter said.

The report — the general outlines of which the Justice Department has briefed the White House on — will reveal that Mueller decided he could not come to a conclusion on the question of obstruction because it was difficult to determine Trump’s intent and because some of his actions could be interpreted innocently, these people said. But it will offer a detailed blow-by-blow of the president’s alleged conduct — analyzing tweets, private threats and other episodes at the center of Mueller’s inquiry, they added. (snip)

While the report’s light redactions might allay some of their concerns, Democrats are likely to bristle at any material that is withheld. What the Justice Department and Trump’s lawyers might view as modest, lawmakers might see as overly aggressive. The redacted version of the report is expected to reveal extensive details about Trump’s actions in office that came under scrutiny, but it is unclear how much the public will learn about how the special counsel’s team investigated the Kremlin’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 election and Russian contacts with Trump associates.

Mueller wasn’t able to come to a conclusion because there is no proof for prosecution, and, in our version of a legal justice system, this means Trump is innocent. But, this matters little to Democrats. You have the Washington Post Editorial Board saying that the redactions (which are required by law) do not deserve the benefit of the doubt.

(The Hill) Democrats say Barr has acted as an agent of President Trump in his role overseeing the release of the report, which will mark the culmination of one of the most-watched probes in recent political history.

Essentially, Democrats are trying to knock down the report they’ve been waiting for which they expected would be The End Of Orange Man.
Democrats are hoping to use the report to bolster their sprawling probes into Trump’s administration, businesses and campaign.

But if the roughly 400-page document contains little evidence implicating Trump on obstruction of justice, the probes are certain to lose steam and thwart their plans to dig into every facet of the administration heading into 2020.

Let them. Trump will just bludgeon them with this, as it will bolster his witch-hunt claims, and this over-reach by unhinged Democrats will help them lose House seats they just won. Really, if you want to know what the Mueller report really means, just look towards the NY Times: they’ve pretty much given up on it saying what they want it to say. They lead with a few obligatory pieces on the webpage and on the paper front page, but, they are basic. There are no editorials or opinion pieces.

There was no collusion, and no proof of obstruction. But, it’ll be fun when the spying on a presidential campaign investigation ramps up.
