Mueller Report - To be released this weekend

[anodyne]

It's late enough on Friday.

MSNBC BREAKING - Barr has Mueller Report

[bowies]

Oh god.

I’m not taking it as a good sign that it was buried on a Friday afternoon during March Madness.

[pitta12]

Yeah, I am not feeling good about this. Let the disinformation campaign begin...

[badgergrl]

ANd no indictments of Jared and Ivanka.

[Jalapeñomel]

‘It’s the end, I think.

[picksthemusic]

My nerves are all frayed. I’m not sure I wanna know.

By Mueller, their cases (cuz you know they have one) would be handed onto local authorities

[bcv513]

Well fuck. This doesn’t feel good

[Jalapeñomel]

Trump reverses NK sanctions:

I am hoping it's his first interim report, but yeah.

[pitta12]

Some dude in a MAGA hat is protesting behind Julia Ainsley (MSNBC) right now with a sign that says "FISA Abuse" and shouting something unintelligible over and over again into a bleach bottle he converted into a makeshift megaphone. I just don't know if I am up to all of the impending onslaught of bullshit.

[anodyne]

Barr letter to Congress.

Conclusions coming this weekend

[bowies]

Barr said he will be sharing information with Judiciary committees this weekend. Double not good.

ETA: If Mueller is sharing why he declined to prosecute some things, let’s hope those reasons are jurisdiction and DOJ policy against prosecuting sitting presidents.

Because Kim sends him love letters

[Bernadine]

I don't know how to feel.

[penguingrrl]

I have a bad feeling about this. This scumbag is going to get away with treason and be re-elected on top of it. This may be the end of the US.

[MrsAxilla]

Why so glum? I don’t think we have enough info to read too much into this.

[anodyne]

I just realized Joy said Rachel will be back "soon" last night, not "tomorrow "

Rachel just tweeted that she's on tonight.

Yeah, I agree.

No more indictments. And it’s been a shitty week and I’m projecting.

But for all we know he farmed out any indictments to me had to local federal or state prosecutors.

Or that there have been indictments but they're sealed.

I never expected a Federal Indictment for them while he is in office I hoped for one but strategically it’s best if that’s left to NY to avoid pardons.

I am still hopeful Mueller farmed them out to NY.

[morecoffeeplease]

I go back and forth. I am a pessimist but I also feel like 22 months is a long time to investigate if there wasn’t anything.

[bowies]

I’m slightly encouraged that McConnell is already spinning his ass off.

[msmerymac]

Can we retitle this thread?! This is big.

[pixy0stix]

I know nothing about how indictments usually work, but I'm going to guess more come after the report is published. My feeling is that he felt like he put the squeeze on the people who could provide him a lot of information for the report.

Changed

[cous0226]

What about Don Jr? I want a fucking indictment for him.

[TamiTaylor]

I’m super dumb at this stuff so grain of salt and all but...
Could it be just that he’s done investigating but they are not done with indictments?
