@jedshug
To all the Trump defenders who said for 10 days, If Barrs letter was unfair, why isnt Team Mueller saying so?...
This one is for you.
Team Mueller says hi and they are calling Barr out.

12/ UPDATE:Muellers team tells @nytimes
:
1. Barr unfairly represented the report;
2. they wrote summaries for Barr to use!
3. Thus the DOJ excuse here (the summaries contain privileged material) is a joke. No way Muellers team makes that mistake.

(5,812 posts)Barr is an idiot. He had to know that what he was doing would not end well.

(53,771 posts)Daddy Bush off on Iran-Contra so he thought he could pull it off again, thus the letter to trump that got him hired.
Seems he's lost his loathsome touch though as that cover-up summary was so obvious. How dumb could he be that he thought he could issue that, then a totally gutted report with all the incriminating parts blacked out and everyone would just sit still for it.
He'll be exposed as the hack he is who needs to be re-retired back to pasture.

(51,585 posts)Even if he could spin it for a short time he knew he'd eventually be exposed. Why would he even want the job to cover for the fucking moron knowing he wouldn't likely be able to get away with it and the moron would get pissed off at him?

(2,855 posts)and the instant he said it I went to myself "YES - OF COURSE!" -- so obvious. Of course there is a summary prepared by Mueller, and most likely suitable for and INTENDED for public release. HOW COULD I NOT HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT. So obvious now!

(37,648 posts)I don't know. I just don't know.
The fact remains that the Mueller team did not recommend indictment. For anything. We don't know why, for sure. (Who believes Barr, at this point?) So I don't know what to think.
