When Attorney General P. William Barr released his four-page summary of Robert S. Mueller III’s report on the Russia scandal .. Republicans went into paroxysms of joy ...

So naturally, they immediately began pressing for the entire Mueller report to be made public as soon as possible so that all Americans could gaze in wonder at its contents and understand the purity of Trump’s innocence.

Actually, no ...

Every Republican on the committee voted not to subpoena the unredacted report and supporting materials, to say that they don’t need to see all the information ...

... There are, almost without question, lots and lots of things in the report that will make Trump look bad, even if they aren’t criminal and even if they aren’t startling new revelations ...

1. Because they have known from the beginning the kind of man he was and

they needed his lack of concern for the country to pass all their shitty legislation that they could before he is found out. It will show them for what they are.

They could not have found a more vile, detestable, and corrupt cult leader.
