No Collusion!

Wow, that's quite an admission for you! Need a hankie?

Read what he's really saying: the implication is Trump is guilty even if it can't be proven.

Yeah, I know - I ignored that for the Drama Queen rant it was. Now he'll accuse me, again, of being dishonest because I "snipped" part of his rant.

The liberals are peppering Barr with questions implying that Barr is speaking as "the President's man" rather than the AG of the Nation. It's rather sad. One of them pretty much accused Barr of preventing Mueller from speaking, and Barr calmly and politely responded that he has no objection to Mueller speaking out.

Barr is really doubling down on "no collusion" in his press conference this morning -- yes, there were Russian attempts, but, no, the Trump campaign was not complicit.

Barr nailed it, and the President did not assert executive privilege even over areas of the report where he could have.

It's really funny, because I was channeling you when I typed that! I just had to turn on "hate-filled idiot" mode.

I appreciate that.

One thing liberals keep forgetting is that it's easy to go on the offensive when you're innocent.

Attorney General William Barr: "In assessing the President’s actions discussed in the report, it is important to bear in mind the context. President Trump faced an unprecedented situation. As he entered into office, and sought to perform his responsibilities as President, federal agents and prosecutors were scrutinizing his conduct before and after taking office, and the conduct of some of his associates. At the same time, there was relentless speculation in the news media about the President’s personal culpability. Yet, as he said from the beginning, there was in fact no collusion. And as the Special Counsel’s report acknowledges, there is substantial evidence to show that the President was frustrated and angered by a sincere belief that the investigation was undermining his presidency, propelled by his political opponents, and fueled by illegal leaks. Nonetheless, the White House fully cooperated with the Special Counsel’s investigation, providing unfettered access to campaign and White House documents, directing senior aides to testify freely, and asserting no privilege claims. And at the same time, the President took no act that in fact deprived the Special Counsel of the documents and witnesses necessary to complete his investigation. Apart from whether the acts were obstructive, this evidence of non-corrupt motives weighs heavily against any allegation that the President had a corrupt intent to obstruct the investigation."

Reporter: "Why do you call this unprecedented?"
Barr: "Is there a precedent?"
Reporter: "No."
Barr: "Then it's unprecedented."

He was so calm and "in control", and the liberal media didn't have a clue how to handle that.

How about some cheese to go with your whine?

Reporter: "There’s a lot of public interest in the absence of the special counsel and members of this team. Was he invited to join you up on the podium? Why is he not here? This is his report, obviously that you’re talking about today."

Barr: "Not it’s not. It’s a report he did for me as the attorney general. He is required under the regulation to provide me with a confidential report. I’m here to discuss my response to that report and my decision to — entirely discretionary to me — to make it public since these reports are not supposed to be made public."
