I may be stupid, but I'm not a moron

Three-hundred pages. 3-0-0. And we’re to believe that William Barr digested the totality of the 300 pages and found just what he revealed in his 4 page summary.

As the truism holds, the cover-up is always worse than the crime. With this revelation, we’re back to a feedback loop, where the crime is awful, and the cover-up makes it worse.

One also has to wonder how long Barr had Robert Mueller’s report in hand. Again, the idea that he was able to compile that letter in 36 hours beggars belief. And if Bar did have the report for longer, did he tip off his boss?

Of course, at a bare minimum, what needs to happen is that Barr release the report to Congress, without allowing the White House a chance to amend it. Today the cover-up is in full view of the public. Does Barr really want to go down with the Trumptanic? I expect very little out of the man who smoothed over the Iran-Contra scandal. But Trump is a different kettle of fish. It is somewhat likely that the Mueller report lays out that Trump is in office illegitimately. At the very least, its length belies anything close to an exoneration. This is not Iran-Contra, not even close.

As always, the first news reports are chaotic and foggy. Now, a few days after Sunday, we’re getting a clearer picture. And the picture isn’t good for the Trump regime.

Boggles my mind that so many immediately, with a 4 page summary by a trump paid to serve his holiness crony, leap up and declared Mueller a traitor. They hadn't read the 300 plus page report, none of us have, yet Mueller was tarred, feathered and thrown under the bus.

1. Is the report 300 pages, or 400, or 700, or almost 1,000. I've heard all four numbers.

In any case, there is no way Barr could have thoroughly reviewed the contents and then written his exculpatory letter in 36 hours.

Release the entire unedited report and supporting evidence NOW!

6. The only source for the 700-page claim thus far is Fox News.

Most reports are saying 300-400. From what I've seen, no one has made the 1,000 claim. The figure came from a question a reporter asked Nadler.

"Nadler, who described his exchange with Barr in a 10-minute phone call Wednesday afternoon, said the attorney general revealed to him the length of Mueller’s report — which Nadler described as “very substantial.” But Nadler declined to disclose its length, saying he wasn’t explicitly authorized to disclose it. Pressed on whether he considered “very substantial” to be fewer than 1,000 pages, Nadler said, “I would think so.”

2. first i heard it was under 1000 then 700 pages.. so its 300?

..thats still hefty reading..

[sheshe2]

7. The numbers are over the place...

However pretty sure it was well over the 300 count. The AG and trump admin are screwing with us.

[TreasonousBastard]

3. Well, I remember that the almost 900 page Warren report was pronounced...

the Truth within days of its publication.

Speed reading, innit?

[PeeJ52]

4. Don't forget, it's probably double spaced. With big margins and room for footnotes...

probably really only maybe 164 pages...

5. Mueller was getting too close to the truth so Barr shut him down.

Flynn, Gates and Cohen are still cooperating; the grand jury term has been extended for six months; Stone doesn't go to trial until next fall; there are still enormous amounts of data that were seized when Stone was arrested. Barr didn't want any of that evidence to be included in the OSC report, which has far more political impact than individual prosecutions. Call me paranoid but something is very stinky here.

8. Barr did his job

Block and cover for the big orange loser.

They have been gaslighting us the whole time. He conspired with them in the open...we all saw it!

Lock both Barr and Trump crime family up !

10. +1, Red Don and all his kids weren't interviewed either

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. If they were targets they wouldn't be interviewed.

And the other investigations might still turn up something.

Don't forget how they finally got Al Capone.

[Sneederbunk]

9. Did Mueller produce a summary? Did Barr reconfigure that summary?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

14. That's one of the many things we don't know.

But I'm damned sure Barr didn't read however many hundreds of pages the actual report consisted of for the first time, and then draft that letter in just a weekend.

11. Just keep hoping the entire report will be leaked before 2020.

There were so many leakers of confidential info under Obama. Surely someone with a copy wants to save the Republic?

[Sneederbunk]

16. There is much hope because the report is now

in the possession of an administration that leaks like a sieve.

13. +100
