Special counsel Robert Mueller said on Wednesday that his report"speaks for itself" and that even if he were to testify before Congress he wouldn't provide any information"beyond what is already public."
"I would not provide information beyond what is already public in any appearance before Congress," Mueller said.Mueller, a former FBI director, said he did not plan any further comment on the investigation or the report. The special counsel made it clear that he felt constrained from the beginning of his probe by Justice Department rules that prohibit the indictment of a sitting president. The method for charging and removing a president, he said, lies outside the criminal justice system, referring to the Constitution's provisions for impeaching and convicting a president.
Mueller, who also said he is resigning to return to private life, did not take questions from reporters after his roughly 10-minute statement.
After a very extensive investigation Mueller could not specifically identify a single action where the president had colluded with Russians or obstructed justice. Mueller a criminal participant in a presidential coup was trying to implicate Trump in absence of evidence of a crime
...... But you CAN impeach him for his multiple crimes
So Mueller thinks Trump could order the entire House murdered and still wouldn't be indicted? Mueller is a joke
CONGRESS: Impeachment is not an option we could consider. Why, there must be a consensus FROM BOTH PARTIES under the law. Impeachment cannot take place strictly along partisan lines.
did anyone ask 'was there a crime you wanted to charge him with?' No? Then shut up.
NEENER NEENER CANT TOUCH TRUMP!
IF HE KNEW AT THE BEGINNING IT WAS NEVER AN OPTION 2 CHARGE A SITTING POTUS THEN WHY WASTE THE TAXPAYERS $$$ What was he paid to do exactly? Our country is innocent UNLESS YOU PROVE GUILT. = IT COULDN'T BE PROVEN. Knowing he couldn't prosecute he probably sat there collecting $$
You are wrong to say that Mueller said he would not testify before Congress. He SAID he would not say any more than what was already in the report. We still need his testimony before Congress, so the American people see his responses in person.
It's not 'policy.' It's unconstitutional.
Mueller: Trump is a criminal but we can’t charge him while he is a sitting president.
which is why we have the impeachment process.
He said there was 'Insufficient evidence.' He is trying to keep the Left from killing his family by claiming that he couldn't charge the President. Insufficient Evidence = NOT GUILTY You're Welcome.
If his office was confident that the President did not commit a crime, he would have said so. 'Charging the President with a crime was, therefore, not an option.' - Question, can that President be charged AFTER he steps down?
