conclusions in the first few pages of each Volume.

First here is what Mueller said Wednesday:

"And as set forth in the report, after that investigation, if we had had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so. We did not, however, make a determination as to whether the president did commit a crime."

This is what he said in his report Volume 2, page 2:

Fourth, if we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President
clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we would so state.
Based on the facts and the
applicable legal standards, however, we are unable to reach that judgment. The evidence we
obtained about the President's actions and intent presents difficult issues that prevent us from
conclusively determining that no criminal conduct occurred. Accordingly, while this report does
not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.



Further, the last line above, was directly quoted in Barr's Report. It's everywhere, has been for over two months, yet people act like it is new.
