The Trump regime cover-up of the full Mueller report continues, and five days after declaring in massive headline font that MUELLER FINDS NO TRUMP-RUSSIA CONSPIRACY, the NY Times once again that it may have been had by Trump.
The still-secret report on Russian interference in the 2016 election submitted by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, last week was more than 300 pages long, according to American officials with knowledge of it, a length that raises new questions about Attorney General William P. Barr’s four-page summary.
Mr. Barr wrote to Congress on Sunday offering what he called the “principal conclusions” of the report — including that Mr. Mueller had not found evidence that the Trump campaign took part in a conspiracy to undermine the election. But he had notably declined to publicly disclose its length.
The total of 300-plus pages suggests that Mr. Mueller went well beyond the kind of bare-bones summary required by the Justice Department regulation governing his appointment and detailed his conclusions at length. And it raises questions about what Mr. Barr might have left out of the four dense pages he sent Congress.
Democrats, who like all other lawmakers have not seen the report, have all but accused Mr. Barr of covering up damaging information it contains. They have specifically focused on an apparent difference between the views of Mr. Barr and Mr. Mueller on whether Mr. Trump obstructed justice. Democrats have demanded that the attorney general make the full report and evidence public.
The American officials spoke anonymously because they were not authorized to discuss details of the report, titled “Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election.”
The Justice Department has continued to decline to publicly give an official page number, though a senior Justice Department official told reporters on the day it was received that the report was “comprehensive.”
Getting the idiots at the Times and other media outlets to finally admit that the Barr Letter is not the Mueller report is something that took almost a week, while Trump is busy doing victory laps and his party is calling for the resignation and/or blacklisting of as many Democrats as possible over the "vindication" of Trump by "the Mueller report".
Maybe House Democrats can make this happen, but it's going to take the American people demanding this daily for it to actually occur. Republicans know they can block this as long as they want, because Americans won't tear themselves away from Netflix or cat videos long enough to stay home from work and fill the streets.
Everyone believes somebody else will take care of it.
That's not how this works.
