That was also in the report. He still wants Congress to deal with it. They still won't. That's not new.

Wow really makes you wonder why he said that he wasn't innocent, especially since he said earlier that he wasn't allowed to say Trump was guilty

this is mueller's fault for being a coward in the report. even if the doj says you can't indict they could've said "yes the president obstructed justice".

I never forget a face, but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception.
It is just amazing how ardent they are about the presumption of innocence when it comes to the President but it often means gently caress all when it comes to most anyone else. It is such a farce how the legal system is being framed as some sacred institution when it clearly is not.

Interesting strategy here, trying to convince the public that Mueller hosed up.

Wait, didn't Mueller find that they did these illegal conspiracy actions, but they didn't have mens rea? So the answer is "Yes, they did these things."

if he lost every republican vote he got he'd still have won due to the minority voter numbers.

No? His victory was way too close for that. He needed huge minority turnout, depressed Republican votes, and some crossover to win. He literally needed everything to go right, it's Alabama.

mueller was well within his purview to write that "if the president was a private citizen he would've been charged with obstruction" and didn't. he's a failure and i hope one of the democrats points out what a dereliction this was.

He wasn't on Trump or Barr's side, he was just a lovely bureaucrat who refused to step up when the country needed someone to not be a lovely bureaucrat. He could have completely Barr-ed the investigation if he was on their side. Instead, he tried to not make anybody mad and refused to push back against obstruction while tip-toeing around saying anything harsh.

Sure frames a solid two years' worth of media "hero shots" of a "concerned" looking Mueller attached to each "huge story" about the investigation in a different context, right?
