Main findings of Mueller report will not be released Saturday: U.S. official

Democrats on the U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee scheduled a 2 p.m. conference call to talk about next steps and messaging, congressional aides said. The 235 members of the Democratic caucus in the House scheduled a 3 p.m. call, a senior Democratic aide said.

Trump had no public events scheduled on Saturday and played golf, White House spokesman Hogan Gidley said. “He’s fine,” Gidley said, when asked by reporters how Trump was feeling. “He’s good, he’s good.” Gidley declined to say whether Trump had talked about the Mueller report while golfing. The big question is whether the report contains allegations of wrongdoing by Trump or exonerates him. Mueller investigated whether Trump’s campaign conspired with Moscow to try to influence the election and whether the Republican president later unlawfully tried to obstruct his investigation.FILE PHOTO: Special Counsel Robert Mueller departs after briefing members of the U.S.

The White House has not received or been briefed on the report, spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said on Friday, adding that “we look forward to the process taking its course.” Trump has denied collusion and obstruction. Russia has denied election interference. Trump said on Wednesday he does not mind if the public is allowed to see the report.

Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer, the two top Democrats in Congress, said the investigation focused on questions that “go to the integrity of our democracy itself: whether foreign powers corruptly interfered in our elections, and whether unlawful means were used to hinder that investigation.”U.S.

This is misleading: 'Mueller did not recommend any further indictments, a senior Justice Department official said, signaling there might be no more criminal charges against Trump associates. '

I have to think that if the top line conclusion was 'no wrongdoing', it wouldn't be hard to summarize. The crimes of Manafort, Gates, etc have already been detailed in public, so that doesn't need to be summarized. And redactions probably aren't necessary to show innocence.

'Senator Chris Coons...said Trump and his core team could still face legal risks even if the report does not find that they committed crimes. ' Seriously? So in other words - we will find it even if it doesn't exist... MuellerReport

The Mueller report will be the Mueller report. I don't believe for a second that Mueller would let Trump skate if he knew of crimes committed, but lacked a cooperative witness or rock solid evidence. He must have options. Maybe via SDNY.

Barr has to edit and redact it to death

Thank you U.S official 😃

Why ruin everyone's weekend?

I'm beginning to think Mueller is John Kerry.

How Mueller kept a lid on Trump-Russia probeOperating in secrecy in a nondescript glass-and-concrete office, the team of prosecutors and investigators since May 2017 has unearthed secrets that have led to bombshell charges against several of President Donald Trump's aides, including his former national security adviser, campaign chairman and Mueller and the judge knowingly violated the fruit of the poison tree by using the illegal source that was and is the completely unverified Steele dossier, they should both go to prison and all verdicts vacated.
