I haven't seen a copy, all I have seen is the Barr report. Once I see the Mueller report then I can draw a conclusion if I feel that the White House was surprised by it.

further indictments to the states? Mueller's report did not conclude there was no obstruction, Barr concluded that.

Because Barr draws HIS OWN conclusion on obstruction and preempts both Mueller and the Congress!

So really even if the full report were provided and it showed collusion which we have already seen clearly, their machine for excusing all manner of atrocity is already there going 24/7 in all levels of the government and of course FOX news.

That's why they are all in such a rush to tell us, "Nothing to see here! Move along!" And, they were saying that before Barr even put out his bullshit letter. It's pretty obvious they knew what's in that report all along, and that they don't want us to know what's in it.

Why Lindsay Graham was with Trump all weekend? The same Lindsay Graham who met with Barr in private prior to the Senate hearings.

You can smell the set-up all the way down here in Florida. My bet: Whitaker leaked to the WH that Mueller wasn't making the decision on indicting for obstruction. They then selected Barr because they knew he would go to bat. Trump used his influence over Graham to make sure Graham got Barr to do it. Now they will fight disclosure of the report because they know that Barr's summary is highly misleading and was written as a cover.

because it will be tied up in the Nazi courts for a long time.

Are there any Daniel Ellsbergs out there?
