Following are some possible next steps as Washington continues to wrestle over Russia's role in the election, the conduct of Mueller's investigation and other aspects of the Trump-Russia saga.Barr said he wants to release as much of Mueller's report as he can, as long as it does not undermine legal proceedings that should be kept secret, such as grand jury interviews, or interfere with other ongoing investigations. He is now going through the report to determine what can be released.

The Democratic chairs of six House of Representatives committees said on Friday they expected that evidence to be turned over on request to their panels, which cover everything from taxes to banking. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, a Republican, has said he wants to investigate whether top officials at the Justice Department discussed forcing Trump from office, and is pressing the FBI to hand over documents relating to their surveillance of Carter Page, a foreign policy adviser on Trump's election team.

What's next for Trump? He stays the course and continues to fight for America. The 'progressives' hope to transform the melting pot into the world's litterbox!

Here is the thing - the House Judiciary Committee makes the determination of Obstruction - not Barr. As such, at least on that score, it doesn't matter what Barr says.

Plus Stacked Courts....next move...declare himself Emperor!

I'll miss his rage tweets about the Mueller investigation.

That's not up to Barr, that's why we have a congress.

'no sustainable evidence'...quite different.

Mueller submits report on Trump investigation to AG Barr, no new chargesSpecial Counsel Mueller wrapped up his nearly two-year investigation into Donald Trump and Russia and sent his report to Attorney General Barr. Now do Hillary. 'without any indictments involving Trump and Russia collusion' which was the point of this investigation How can Mueller indict Cohen for lying to Congress, but Don Jr. and Kushner get a pass? The House has said (in so many cryptic words) that both of them lied and they turned their testimony over to Mueller...I don't understand; justice for some, but not for all.
