Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday blocked efforts by his Democratic counterpart to pass via unanimous consent a resolution to make public special counsel Robert Mueller's report, the second time Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has tried to do so.
McConnell objected this time saying he wants to give Attorney General William Barr and Mueller time to complete their investigations and because Barr has committed to make as much of the report public, but he shouldn't be rushed. "It's not unreasonable to give the special counsel and the Justice Department just a little time to complete their review in a professional and responsible manner," McConnell said on the Senate floor.
Hey CNN, why not follow this story up with the real information. Ask Mitch or investigate how releasing the full report might effect Kentucky recieving a Russia Aluminum Mill.
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😖😖😖😖😖
I wonder why he's trying to protect the Russian traitor
Nothing new. Same old crap...
Damn shame.
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 How on 🌎 could anyone vote for a Republican is mind boggling.
McConnell is the David Pecker of David Dukes
Pig
LAWMAKERS ,HA ! PATHETIC HUMANS, attempting murder right in front of us, Again ! Why are there not more people OUTRAGED !!!
Party before country. Always.
Sounds like COLLUSION to me!!!
Why should the report not be public. Trump is a public servant... he serves us, not the other way around. So bring the report about our servant out and make it public.
Gee Mitch. Why would you want to hide the Mueller report?
davidfrum If there is nothing to hide, show the report. Easy!
When DJT says frog MM jumps.😊
Mitch needs to focus on getting more federal judges appointed.
🤮you wonder where Mitch’s wife stores her Drug shipments? In that pouch under his chin.
davidfrum Gotta wonder why they would want block access to a report that 'completely exonerates the president'
Retire McConnell! You've lost your moral compass.
Smart man. He knows the damage it will do to his president. Even Kentucky is soon to take him out for good.
Yea he doesn’t want the people to see the truth they say the president is cleared let the people make that judgment for them selves we are not children we are American adults we have the right to see for ourselves not you make that decision for the PEOPLE AMERICANS DESERVE THAT?
davidfrum The fix is in
Jail birds of a feather flock together.
ReleaseTheFullMuellerReport , it will speak for itself.
brooklynmarie I miss the old days when Mitch still had teeth.
He’s amazing!
I wish we could get some video of him hugging the flag so we know he still loves America.
davidfrum He just does what he damn well pleases, answers to no one. Founders could not have imagined
davidfrum It’s gonna come out anyway, turtle senatemajldr
Don’t Release it. They trusted Mueller All along. Now they Don’t trust him! Dontreleasethereport MAGA MAGA2020 QANON WWG1WGA DarkToLight
Who is he to decide what the American people want. There you go treating us like children.
Special place in hell for him
I’m shocked someone hasn’t gone off the deep end on this guy. He repeatedly spits in America’s face. Ridiculous
davidfrum 100% unacceptable. We the people will have that fucking report.
davidfrum What a joke of a political system the United States of America has the land of the free what a joke what a joke what a joke
davidfrum Something to HIDE, Mitch?
davidfrum Cowards do tend to cower
Mitch McConnell showing his true colors. Yellow, like the chicken he is.
The criminals continue the crime! If there was any doubt about if it was a clean decision from Barr, McConnell has just told the American people that it’s a con job!
And in a week the Democrats be blocking the FISA Warrant applications
sendgrandpahome
Why can't we have Democracy in our government? Clearly Mitch McConnel thinks he alone should decide. Why? Why does this one corrupt Republican get to decide what Americans see or not. He is afraid his own connections will show.
senatemajldr What are they hiding if it's so great for Trump? Cover up!
Representation of the people by the people. The voters of Kentucky are to blame. They can own the honesty and transparency he brings, all the while their coal jobs shrink. Traveling through Kentucky two times in the near future, my feet will not touch the ground. No $$
CNN now part of the Trump machine since purchased by AT&T. MSNBC has better programming anyway.
Not suspicious at all
Mitch needs to be removed.
Really? They needs time to review confidential and security information. You Fake New keep lying no stop. Sad.
Right. There are laws in this countey. AG Barr has a duty here, under the law, he is not a conduit. Dems are just searching for a bone since they've been lying to everyone for two years. Desperate for something they can use. Pathetic.
And extreme Trump supporters wonder why everyone else thinks there’s sketchy stuff going on. Christ man, if there’s nothing there, then just say “go ahead, read it & feel stupid”, release it & call it a day
TRAITOR BLOCKS REPORT THAT COULD INDICT/INCRIMINATE HIM AND HIS FELLOW GOP COLLEAGUES?
McConnell amdvthe Reps are scared of something!
Makes me dislike him even more if that’s possible
draiochta14 Corrupt f**ks!
You Dems put us thru this for 2 yrs. No evidence of collusion. no proof of obstruction. You can wait . You allowed this travesty to our democracy . It is time you all take a back seat while we go after the real crimes.. You all don't deserve to demand anything now
Why block when there is nothing to hide and you think there was no collusion?
Cause Schumer is a schmuck!
Traitor
What's He Afraid Of?
Not surprising. He's virulently anti-American, believing the lower classes should be servants to the rich, and should have no say in the government at all. 😠😡
Don’t give the Democrats Crap; they are Evil and can care less about the American People. They shouldfocus on doing their jobs
A Trump appointee tells America that Trump didn't conspire or obstruct, how exactly is this news. Most of Trump's appointees have been fired, indicted, and convicted Barr is just another liar appointed by a traitorous, corrupt, racist, misogynistic, xenophobic Coward
And the cover up protection of trump continues. The GOP is not interested in doing the right thing. Mitch needs to go.
No problem, it will get out anyway and McConnell is out out out
cnn💩 🛏
Of course he did because that’s what ya do when you’re hiding sh*t and covering up corruption
I wonder why 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
That clown will go down as one of worse human being on earth.
He specially said it wasn’t needed because the special counsel and AG were working on it to get released. Really CNN let it go!!!
Its already been shredded.
Pure cover-up
'No collusion ', 'Release the findings', why are these errand boys not obeying orders
Trump can now declassify all of the FISA warrants!
We the American people paid for this investigation we have a right to see what we paid for ReleaseTheFullMuellerReport
Guilty
Why not it been proven he is innocent, what is there to hide
Why senatemajldr if it’s such a wonderful report for your boss, let us see it, too
This is most likely false just letting everyone know. Don’t need to wait another 2 years to find the lies any more...
Not what innocent people do senatemajldr realDonaldTrump
How do people still take what comes out of these people seriously anymore? Lol.
Because, of course. All he knows how to do is thwart the will of the majority.
More political BS
So want to vote out Mitch he blocks everything and most republicans policies are not for all Americans ReleaseTheMuellerReport vote Democrat 2020
Rich old white guys club
The real collusion!
If this report totally exonerates the president, like they think it does, why won’t they prove it and release the full report? Everything these GOPers do is always so shady. And they wonder why we question them and their motives.
Y Mitch?
Totally unpredictable. Keeping everyone on their toes
OMG Democrats are gonna take the bait. GOP will keep Mueller report sealed until October 2020. Democrats will GRASP it as their saving grace. They’ll redo the whole conspiracy while Trump “moves on”. Then they release it 10/2020. And it’ll be nothing. Again.
I feel sorry for people who watched CNN it's like watching A 3rd world program
BREAKING: The Wall Street Journal reports that the alleged co-conspirator with Michael Avenatti in the federal extortion case is celebrity attorney Mark Geragos. Geragos is a CNN legal analyst and also represents Jussie Smollett.
Hiding something?
Is there anything someone is helping Trump to hide?
Of course he does... our government is an embarrassment of a shit show. firethemall
Trump says release the Mueller Report so why did Majority Leader Mitch Mc Connell block Democratic proposal to like to report go public?
So senatemajldr is actually against realDonaldTrump preference
Why hypocrite?
I will vote for Trump in 2020 if I see the report that proves he is innocent as Republicans claim. Kidding, i wont vote for criminals.
'course he did. Transparency and sunshine would show Mitch as this (with all due respect for Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley):
Good because it's private and confidential and will cause more harm than good.
Never mind that such a resolution would be a flat out violation of the law.
Hans, Germany / I'm disgusted beyond words. What's the point reading any of it with your eyes closed? You betrayed your voters may God have mercy on you. MullerReport ShameOnYou
Again with this uncircumcised face! Where is a stroke, an aneurysm, a widow maker, or a drunk driver when you really need one?
