By Greg Miller Greg Miller national security, intelligence, terrorism Email Bio Follow May 1 at 7:10 PM The contentious hearing Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee was on the findings of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, but his voice was absent — as it has been for the last two years.
Trump himself sought to preempt the Senate hearing on the Mueller report, tweeting Wednesday morning a conclusion that Barr has repeatedly endorsed: “NO COLLUSION, NO OBSTRUCTION.” Trump’s tweet also called the investigation “the greatest con-job in the history of American Politics!” The March 27 letter expressed dismay that Barr’s public description of the report had failed to “fully capture the context, nature, and substance of this office’s work and conclusions.”
The sequence was an extension of a pattern established throughout the 22-month probe: Mueller methodically but mutely pursued lines of inquiry, while Trump publicly blasted the special counsel’s team, aiming to discredit its work and convince at least some voters that the inquiry amounted to a partisan conspiracy against his presidency.
That reputation for rectitude was largely responsible for the bipartisan support that greeted Mueller’s appointment as the special counsel in 2017. But as he settled into the job, he seemed even more determined to remain out of public view.
That's called doing his job. ☺☺
No collusion no criminal referral, end of story. That was Muellr's sole purpose. There is no reason to investigate the investigation again.
Perhaps he misread Mueller’s silence.
More lies from the Washington ComPost FakeNews EnemyOfThePeople
There was either collusion, or there wasn't. End of story.
fake news
Why didn't you say this when it first came out?
Just because you want it that way doesn’t make it so.
You guys keep doubling down on this line if bullshit. How do any of you have jobs?
We the People see through the FakeNews BS.
The report had been released, anyone can read it, how is that spinning? In fact he didn't have to release any of it. This is ridiculous, Mueller found no collusion and this is what the left comes up with? Meanwhile the American people just want to go on with their lives.
Bill Barr, you will be remembered like the Nixon punk AG.
Yah, so horrible, an employee of the Executive Branch, working on behalf of his boss.
WASHINGTON COMPOST you're in ethical reporting has lost you all credibility. The recent letter release. Dispicable.
The entire report was made available (and Mueller participated in the redaction process), so people can interpret the report for themselves - without input from Barr, the WaPo, or anyone else.
The report is released. It is in English (well written, by the way) It’s redactions are very light and annotated. It was distributed over the internet to the entire world instantly after release. It says there was no conspiracy with US. It declines to indict for obstruction.
I know you're just hoping people won't read the report themselves, or watch Barr's testimony.
You really are the enemy of the people.... the whole report has been out 🤦♂️
When will this end 50 mil 100 Mil. This reminds me of a very very bitter divorce and the losses R the children. In my world the citizens of America.
Give it up, WaPo.
The report is available. Read it; no excuses
Total despicable
We can read. No collusion. U have lied to your readers for 2 years. Fake news.
Mueller delivered an open ended report to his boss, AG Barr. Barr consulted with legal experts on his staff & did what a BOSS does; he made a decision. He took the time to redact Grand Jury material prior to release of the entire document. Now Dems you have 438 pages in ur hands
fakenews
WAPO
He seems to have forgotten he works for the people not trump!
Um the whole report is public
Wapo has zero credibility on this issue. They’ve been running incorrect stories on the Russian “collusion” topic for years. It’s Wapo’s reputation that’s up in flames.
What do you do when your attacked by Hirohito from Hawaii?
After 2 years, $30 million, 19 lawyers, 40 FBI agents..their conclusion was no American colluded with Russia. Despite innumerable smears by WaPo.
Barr was given a chance to prove that he would work to protect the constitution and our democracy, Mueller tested his integrity to do so, and he failed repulsively.
Any More corruption to be revealed
Um trumpie just said at a rally 'there is no Russia '. Barr leaves out mo exoneration. Collusion found and obstruction found. This isn't new. Didn't anyone get trump has lied h Is entire adult life? Page 6 1985 lies...it never stopped. He is a con man liar.
He is the attorney general. He is interpreting the truth. Trump was not indicted & you guys can't handle it.
Section IV pg 173 last sentence then section V pg 174. It's complete now. Go fornicate solo.
Um, how about we ask Mueller?
I think the DEM senators at the SJC have discovered that its not much use throwing water at a rottweiler with the expectation that you might scare him off...
He can interpret one way, others like Fake News, interpret it differently. Who know. Who cares. Why is this news? mediaisdead
Trump already had the advantage; no interpretation needed. Unless, you’re heavily biased and refuse to have the narrative you worked so blindly on the last 2 years come crashing down from the weight of reality.
Well, duh, the TRUTH is to the benefit of Trump.
The AG is Trump’s lawyer. Not AG for the American people. The recent hearings have shown us that much 😂
Barr interprets the Mueller report to the advantage of the rule of law. Dems are mad, because they can't intimidate Barr, into breaking the law, in favor of the dems.
Careful what you ask for wapo. It’s meuller time lol! 😂
The thing he got grilled by another AG Senator Harris. He couldn't find the exit door.
This guy has a big sign on his forehead 'MAGA'
Why would the report need to be interpreted when it has already been released? You sound desperate.
Anyone. Likeness?
Mueller....who has shown no hesitation to charge others....did not touch Trump, family or anyone close! Why not? Because Mueller knew he was investigating a hoax and a fraud...from the very start! Mueller is a corrupted swamp rat!
It’s time you got the facts on whether this fat today shut the investigation down, as it’s pretty clear he did
Guess your paper is the next on rhe chopping block? You have become the USA Today, written for children.
What? — it was the “MUELLER REPORT” 400+ pages, how is that silent?
He interpreted the report....by releasing the entire report to the public?
What are you talking about? The whole report is out and it's written in English.
Give up Democrat!!! Mueller said he did not disagree with Barr’s letter but his concern was what the press was saying. How is that Barr’s fault? Hilarious watching Barr school those stupid Democrat clowns.
CONGRESS MEMBERS HAVE ACCESS TO THE REPORT!!! They aren't reading it because everyone knows what happened. NOTHING
Barr is the first breath of fresh air in years! The Washington is full of lying 'journalists' who have no morals and a fanatic left agenda. WRONG WRONG WRONG all you do is print WRONG stuff. Do some research!
He leaked the memo. Didn’t he?
FakeNews EnemyOfThePeople
Because the Dem Congress rewrote the Independent Counsel law after the Clinton debacle
Dear : It may or may not have an affect on your reporting but, FYI: Attorney General Barr released “Muellers,” Entire Full report with less than 10% redactions for the world to see👀. The same report, you reported, would bring down the President. Again...FYI.
You meant he spun the report
WHAT!!!? OMFG you guys should move from a newspaper to a pretzel factory. You must think your readership are idiots. Or maybe they are. ... what am I saying... ? 😂😂😂
Why does it have to be to the advantage of Trump The report is what it is !! Too bad Dems you lost another match!!
Well shows no collusion in the report, so yeah that’s an advantage for Trump.
He didn’t even read the report
Then just read the report ding dong.
What a lying scumbag load. Barr answered every GOPig question immediately, without hesitation. Barr didn’t even answer the Democrats’ questions with anything but, hemming and hawing and, “I don’t recall” when asked simple questions. Unbelievable.🇺🇸
Wrong he asked Mueller if he approved and he didn’t answer. So he lost his chance
FakeNews
I’ve been wondering why reporters haven’t been camped outside mueller’s house. There has only been that one reporter hounding him after church on Easter...
We have the report you dolts! Don’t your readers read?
Whoever tweeted that needs to be committed.
Without having read it.
Barr Sucks
We can read the report for ourselves. We know how criminal Trump is. AmericansForImpeachment
Shameful
Barr said, the report is release with few redactions so now the public can read it and make their own mind up.
I read the report myself and don’t intend to read the Barr letter. Why does anyone even care about that when you have the source material available for free?
Why is mueller silent? He found no collusion or obstruction.
If only there was the report to read....oh wait!
Mueller PARTICIPATED FULLY in all the redactions on the report. His staff participated fully as well. It’s really tragic at this point that you are continuing to insult the intelligence of millions of Americans with this coordinated seditious nonsense that you’re all complicit in
Mueller is following protocol, his report was submitted to the AG. But twice he’s tried to defend his work thru letters to Barr...to no avail. Who is it who must give Mueller permission to come forward, tell us what the report actually says
Dear Jesus, when will this national hissy fit end? It's over, people. Just let it go.
Imagine not getting ratio’d every time.
The entire report, with Mueller’s help redacting. You’re lying to your audience. Granted some of them prefer to hear what they want over actual truth, but the rest of us think you’re SHIT journalism.
Mr Mueller needs to testify in Congress.
Just doing his job without bias or politics. What a concept. What will the spin be when Mueller confirms?
He released it. You can read it online. He just knows weissmann got the 9-0 beat down on made up obstruction in past cases so he has reason to believe the obstruction charges are bullshit. But more importantly no collusion which you guys have been yelling about for years.
You are literally making stuff up.
Embarrassing
Hey , you of all people (Bezos owned) should know that the Mueller report is available to everyone who wants to read it on Amazon. Americans can interpret it for themselves, no?
Fake news at its worst!
Oh f right off.
Mueller doesn’t have to speak. He and his team authored almost 500 pages of decision. Next stop: Nellie Ohr’s criminal referral 😎 Who rats first? DeepStateCorruption
that senator for Hawaii is a vulture...made my day.
LIARS! Blatant LIARS!
“Uh,....no, .. I didn’t review the evidence before I made my determination.”
Because silence speaks volumes
The report is public, you lying hacks. You truly are the enemy if the people.
You people are disgusting. Eventually your CIA free ride will come to a harsh end.
Mueller’s report spoke. It found that OUR POTUS was not guilty of collusion or obstruction.
You are being paid by the DNC. Fake news!realDonaldTrump
The report is public. Interpret away fake news😂
iamforeverblue2
Why's it have to be interpreted? He released the whole report.
Republicans want a dictatorship. SHAME
Barr us slimmy person.
Ummm..... the entire REPORT HAS BEEN RELEASED FOR EVERYONE TO READ!!!! 🤦🏼♀️ FakeNewsMedia
I don't care to be treated like a fool anymore by Barr. It is so obvious that Barr is acting for trump. I need to hear what Mueller has to say.
Unacceptable! Congress must act.. now! Remove the Treasonous Scums from our government! Lock them up!
Silent? No. Stop lying. This is YOUR PAPER!!
Who has the last word? When will chicken come home to roost?
Traitor..Barr
RESIGN..BARR REPRESENTS DONALD TRUMP.. HE IS VIOLATING HIS OATH TO THE REPRESENT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.. RESIGN IMPEACH
No wonder your rag is referred to as TheWashingtonCompost
Bring on the IG!
Mueller chose not to help Barr with summary, and appears only to be concerned with media treatment. Nothing here. Move along.
With mueller silent, Barr does his job to the disadvantage of the filthy commies who attempted this coup
And you remain complicit.
No, Mueller is silenced. Barr looked like a dupe surrounded by friendly faces. Too chicken to face the truth of the House tomorrow
So, do your readers, not to mention our esteemed Congress-people and Senators lack basic reading comprehension skills The report is PUBLIC. I'm pretty sure Mueller wasn't planning on doing a Schoolhouse Rock-level interpretation of it. Barr is irrelevant-ppl can just READ IT.
FAKE FALSE NEWS
The entire report is released for the public to read
But I read the report. The Mueller Report, right? Yeah...I read that.
To the advantage of the truth*. WaPo are nothing more than a far left propaganada firm. I have no doubt they would help enemy combatants commit terror attacks against our country if they thought it would help the Democrats win.
Without reviewing the evidence!
What a joke this fish wrap has become!!
This was a lie from the very beginning.
To the advantage of the truth
Lock him up
Mueller blinked he knew what Barr would do.
Barr asked Mueller to add anything to the report or to edit. Mueller declined. Which means fakenews.
This is so ridiculous. Barr hasn't even given his opinion. We have the report Mueller found no credible evidence of any crime committed by Trump. There is really nothing else you need to know. Quit throwing a fit because you didn't get the answer you wanted.
Keep throwing pebbles st Goliath
“With Mueller silent, Barr interprets the special counsel’s Russia report — to the advantage of Trump.” You think?
Facts are facts. Now move on.... I'm sure the liberal bozos have another bogus hunt they want to sniff out.... Next...
Rename your rag to the WaPoo
You HAVE the whole fking record! That's what Mueller wrote. Or can't you clowns read?
Where the heck is Mueller? Speak up
Are you the national enquirer now? You’ve seriously lost it if that’s your take.
Mueller was charged with conducting an investigation. He completed, wrote a report and has done his job. All of you Liberal dingbats just can’t get over it. Move on realDonaldTrump is your POTUS still😂😂😂😂😂
reporting outright Lies Mueller Is not tied up and gagged somewhere. WashPo refuses to accept NoCollusionNoObstruction
His silence makes up for two years of your “Collusion” propaganda.
Well now that we have a grasp of the completely obvious lets move on shall we?
Somebody did something. HAAAAA
Justice and truth make Barr sick to his stomach. He should resign for health reasons--the health, wellbeing, and future of our nation.
Next headline: Mueller misinterprets key findings in Mueller report
Yeah mueller had no say in this at all😂😂😂 this is laughable
To the advantage of Pres Trump? So now speaking the truth is the advantage of? Do you pull, ever think before you speak?
You are so confident your readers are ignorant of the truth...and apparantly they are. Barr released the whole report and specifically asked Mueller if he thought that his interpretation of the report was wrong and Mueller replied no...he was upset at the media coverage.
I mean seriously, do leftists need the Mueller Report written for them in crayon in a coloring book format to understand it? What?
Do you practice some form of techniques that provide out of the mind experiences where entire alternate realities are considered before the actual reality you live in? Mueller was fully involved in the redaction process. What part of that do you/democrats not understand?
Hey ...if collusion was there y'all would be screaming it. Guess what. IT'S NOT THERE! accept it, just like you need to accept lying cheating Hillary lost.
Wapo propaganda
YEP! He did what Mueller refused to do: he made a decision. He knows abt the 24/7 attacks from y'all, how you treated Trump for the past 2 yrs, all the accusations, the crap reporting, printing of leaks, calling him a traitor. You got what you earned. Barr isn't playing your game
And the WaPo wonders why no one(except morons)takes them seriously.
Wtf....the report is out. Read it yourself. It doesn’t matter what Barr said.
Barr didn’t interpret it. He admitted he ignored evidence making clear that he came with intent to drive a predetermined outcome. He is not to be trusted & he must be removed from office unscrupulous
Lol. Did you guys even watch it? Do you think we Didn't? Wapoliars
When all else fails, read the report yourself.
If only people who were not illiterate had access to the report to read it themselves.
so much for objectivity, I suppose.
WP Smoking something bad. IMO.
Mueller already spoke - in his report, that in its entirety was supposed to go to Congress, but was held back by his BOSS. Good grief. You're expecting way more than what is deliverable. He also still works for the DOJ.
Comey testified almost immediately after he cleared HRC with an Obama controlled White House and Lynch controlled AG Office. Proving democrats always cave to republicans even when they hold the power
It's done. It's over. Stfu!
The report is publicly available. Your BS narrative is shot.
Do we need a audiobook read by Mueller?
Stop propagandizing Post! Enough already‼️
Because the report didn’t lean toward any other conclusion
No collusion. No conspiracy. No obstruction. Finished. WaPo = TDS + fakenews
wapo = zero integrity, just like the owner. Lie & cheat.
They have a copy. They can read it for themselves. No interpretation necessary.
If only we had a copy of the report.
Couldn't you morons simply.........read the report for yourselves? There's a flipping PAPERBACK VERSION of it you can get at Barnes and Noble. Journalism dies at the Washington Post.
Barr is a disgrace, but that's not newsworthy, as everyone knows it. The Trump effect. In years to come those that are not yet born will look back and despise humanity. I do now, it will take Trump voters a little longer, if ever.
Mueller left AG Barr in a a bad place without deciding on the obstruction issue. It was left up to him and their hero Rod Rosenstein to decide. They did, now live with it. It’s OVER.
With The Wapo silent, Hillary was allowed to sell uranium to the Russians and destroy an illegally used hard drive when SecState.
Mueller supports BARR..you lost
You guys know he released the whole report, right? I mean, you can download it or read it online... You do understand that, don't you?
Bullshit
You're lying. I read the report. No collusion, no obstruction
doug_muench … No problem, hope you’ll be able to read english and understand what’s in it….
For the moment. Mueller will speak. Game over.
Does this actually work? Keeping 'no news' in the news until elections.
The content of your article directly contradicts your bullshit headline. You guys have less credibility than TMZ
Well, read the report...Mueller tells you no collusion. Those are his words.
BS
Wrongly tho
That's funny, Scumbag Graham still stuck on Hillary ...& lecturing on a Senator's Q.'s? From a guy who called his own President names & lost his own marbles during the S. court hearings? Talk about a deadhead who lost his way....& people actual vote 4 tis guy?
Where is Mueller? Gag order?
What a bullshit headline.
I interpret it the same way Barr has. I don’t need you, Mueller, media or other politicians to tell me what it said. You know why? He released the 400 pages to the public. You spin it your way I will read it mine.
LOLOLOLOL😂So, NOW, Democrats hate Mueller ....Democrats are NUTS!
Another Trump troll.
Cry me a river. Rag.
gregpmiller Mueller thinks he is being honorable. He isn't. Not honorable to keep silent when democracy is at risk.
The communist democrat party cannot weasel their way out of the spy ring in government, orchestrated by them and they will lie and fight with interpretation lies It's too late The truth is out Its time for limits and consequences for the conspirators
Well, Mueller will have to defend the 30 millions or risk being attributed to the likes of a wack job. He needs to testify and fast.
They agree it's over
Tired of all this trump BS! ReleaseUnredactedMuellerReport Question Mueller and his team then ImpeachTrump EnoughIsEnough
Silent or silenced?
This country is being screwed like never before but also never again
WHO will believe this load of FAKE NEWS? Barr interprets the special counsel’s Russia report ? You can read the report yourself I have it's ALL correct .Just take the L already professional whiners. Funny how this fake front took how many weeks to manifest? Muller is scrambling.
Time for Mr. Mueller to start yapping.
Remember dems..if we get out of this mess, answer to no one in GOP and everything is a national emergency
I have big pp
Dems still sitting around looking for a report?...Raid the AG's office.
gregpmiller Clearly Congress/Dems have no power & attempts to oversee Executive Branch is laughable! GOP has left the bldg.
...interprets... Hmmmm.
When Mueller says the same thing, what will democrats next go to move be 😁
That's your take. FFS.
WE NEED MUELLER!!!!
Well, the conclusions of it advantaged him to begin with so... there’s that. It’s available for all to read 😉
