It's the end!

O’Rourke warned that America may not see another year if details of Russian interference in the 2016 election included in the Mueller report are not made public, saying, “This is an unprecedented attack on this country and on our democracy, and we are owed the facts. And if we do not receive them, 243 years in, there’s nothing that guarantees us a 244th.”

And apparently it was never about Russian collusion because, you know, no evidence of Russian collusion was found I guess.  :facepalm:

Ken Starr (remember him?) has produced a very interesting analysis of the situation. Not of the contents of the report, but of what is supposed to be done (and what is NOT supposed to be done) with the report.

https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/03/ken-starr-muellers-report-shouldnt-go-congress/585577/

It would be very interesting to see the reaction of progressives if this were handled in the same way the Starr report was handled post-report.

Slight tangent, but it has been interesting to me to see how this woman is suddenly being trashed in the media. One minute she's a CBS star reporter, then the minute she questions the MSM, she's a nutjob hack. Sort of like what happened to Sheryl Attkinson.

I consider it an example of just how quickly the left can turn on their own and throw a once useful useful idiot under the bus.

Today: "Mueller was always just a side show! The real action is with the New York AG!"

Andrew McCarthy has been saying that for awhile now

In the moral, catatonic stupor America finds itself in today it is only disagreement we seek, and the more virulent that disagreement, the better.

As Starr's article points out, though, the regulations have changed since his report, so if Mueller's report is handled the same -- it will be a violation of the law.

The excuses so far I've hear so far

The investigation was too limited.
The investigation didn't have enough time.
The investigation wasn't handled right.
No evidence was found of Russian collusion because the investigation was never actually looking for Russian collusion.
Evidence of Russian collusion was not found because of Russian collusion.
Mueller is a Russian Agent

Did I leave any out?

Putin must be laughing his arse off at us.

There is one school of thought that Pres. Trump wants the report made public even more than the dems.  He is giving them the chance to make fools of themselves clamoring for transparency so that when he shows them that transparency works two ways that there will be little they can say about it.  Things are either gonna get real interesting or real frustrating … stay tuned …

Watch the dems do whatever they can to keep the report private and then blame Trump for that.  I'm sure the MSM would gladly play along.

It's time for Trump to have the Justice Department appoint a special investigator to look into the DNC's contacts with the Rooshans during the campaign. IMHO, there's a lot more to suggest actual collusion on the part of the Democrats than there ever could be to show collusion on the part of Trump and his campaign.

It’s official.

No evidence of collusion.

The AG sees no evidence of obstruction of justice so no investigation or charges forthcoming.

Trump wins. Again.


For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

As to the "obstruction" bullshit, if there was no underlying crime what the *expletive deleted*ck would they have been guilty of obstructing?

I had the misfortune of having to work today.

For some god awful reason I have the inability to change the channel on the TV in the grooming room, and I was stuck sitting around in the grooming room for most the morning.

Meet the Press made my blood pressure rise. In fact, this whole week has been hell on me, what with that retarded The Today Show.

I had hoped... I know it was futile, but I had hoped that this would *finally* get them to STFU about Russia, but it hasn't. If anything, it's made the liberal news double down on this *expletive deleted*it.
What's worse is that they were talking today that the report *might* show evidence that, though there is no collusion with Russia, there was collusion with other countries.  :facepalm: So basically, they're setting up that Trump was colluding with some other country instead of Russia and then they'll scream about that for two years.

As far as I can tell, Trump's only "colluded" with supermodels and rich party people, and that wasn't to win any election...

Trump is colluding with America, that is the worst crime someone can commit in the eyes of the left

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

OUR COCKTAIL THIS WEEKEND IS THE MUELLER REPORT:  It costs millions to make, takes two years to be served. Rumors and expectations about it are stoked to fever pitch. Arrives as an empty glass.  Every news source claims it’s the finest Russian Vodka. Rachel Maddow most affected.

    Mueller spent two years investigating obstruction of justice and found evidence that “does not exonerate” Trump. Barr took two days to set aside that evidence.

    The entire report must be published and evidence provided to Congress so the American people can judge for themselves.

    Mueller did not find sufficient evidence to establish conspiracy, notwithstanding Russian offers to help Trump’s campaign, their acceptance, and a litany of concealed interactions with Russia.

    I trust Mueller’s prosecutorial judgement, but the country must see the evidence.
