The Mueller Report should not be the last word...

Instead, it should be used as the starting point for the Congress to get to the truth about what happened before and after the election of 2016.

The Mueller Report will lend credibility to all other investigations. The investigations should be used to educate the people of this country.

After all the rocks have been turned over, and we can see the full picture, then we should make the decision about whether or not to impeach?

At this time, it is more important that we have all the facts.

The Mueller Report was limited in its scope. The Congress should complete the job that Robert Mueller began.

The investigations should continue full blast, over all Republican protestations, until all guilty parties are brought to justice.

Mueller was assigned a task of paramount importance, to investigate interference in American election by
a foreign power. It is an issue which can not be under-estimated for it's importance. Mueller seems to have worked hard and leaked nothing. I hope his report will not be white washed by the new Attorney General. The public deserves to see entire report.

Human nature. But today gave me real hope. It is obvious that as he has found non-Russian related crimes he has handed them off to other investigators. Cohen saying he was in contact with the SDNY and not Mueller proved that to me.

His report, if we see it will be a bomb shell. But that is not the end.

Other prosecutions are under way.

And you will see hearings like today’s on a regular basis.

We will never win in the courts but the ballot box. This is a good start.

There are still a lot of questions to be answered.

We knew going in that Mr. Mueller was working in a context that does not allow for indicting Trump. Thus, it is very similar to the dynamics of the Watergate investigations. His report will build the foundation for Trump's impeachment. More, he has handed off numerous cases to other federal prosecutors. It's the end of the beginning.
