Mueller Is Finishing up, and the ‘Resistance’ Has Nothing
CNN’s report that special counsel Robert Mueller could wind up his investigation and deliver his much-anticipated report as early as next week has the anti-Trump ‘Resistance’ seemingly struggling to sustain a consistent narrative.
Some speculated that Mueller could have been pressured by recently-confirmed Attorney General William Barr to end the investigation prematurely.
If #Mueller says he’s done and was allowed to follow the evidence, then let’s see the report. America will welcome it. But if he’s been forced to stop investigating, there will be hell to pay. We’re not powerless anymore.

▪️Did Barr pressure Mueller to “end” his investigation?
▪️What will Barr reveal to Congress? https://t.co/3IyDy9n01d— Katie Phang (@KatiePhang) February 20, 2019
Wait, has Mueller completed his report or is Barr shutting it down?

As a senior member of @HouseJudiciary I believe AG Barr must make the #MuellerReport public so all can learn how #Russia meddled in the 2016 election & whether that crime was aided & abetted by @realdonaldtrump or his campaign #TrumpRussia #Collusion https://t.co/SmTO4OnqfV

Only Mueller should decide when his investigation is complete. And when he's done, the public should see his full report. Not a summary. Full stop.

The full Mueller report needs to be made public. Period. Full stop.

Some took the James Clapper approach, managing expectations by acknowledging that the report could be “anti-climactic,” but arguing that Trump should still be impeached nonetheless.
We don’t need a report from Mueller or more evidence to impeach him. He’s already committed thousands of impeachable offenses. It’s time to #ImpeachTrump.

In fact, Mueller report or no Mueller report, it is absolutely evident that no American in our history has betrayed the country as egregiously or damagingly as Trump and that it is vital that we recognize this fact or the risks of further damage will be compounded.

Re: CNN report on Mueller, it makes me realize how much more of a credibility problem CNN gave itself yesterday. When you come out with news you bring on a GOP operative on the editorial side, don’t expect anyone to immediately buy what you sell as fact and not spin.
