2. Barr is gaming it

He just relieved a little pressure and kicked the (tampered) report down the road. Subpoena the report. Now. And make Barr testify WHAT he’s doing about the actual Russian election tampering that he acknowledged. He swore an oath and apparently cannot live up to it.

tRump is not innocent. The only reason we have not seen the report is because he is guilty of conspiracy and obstruction. They are only stalling for time to propagandize, spin, cover up, and stall until 2020 if possible.

any help reading. My concern, like others, is that Barr needs until Mid April to manipulate the original report with his editing of Bob Mueller's actual words; Barr's liberal use of redactions of so-called classified data; and Trump's Executive Privilege of anything that remains which might be damaging to him.

of information likely to be scrubbed or redacted: 1) Secret of Classified info; 2) Grand Jury testimony; and 3) Executive Priviledge info (private conversations between the President and his legal team).

Barr thought his magisterial bearing and arrogance would let him slide by. Nope.

10. Rep Schiff haf more to say this Friday Afternoon

Adam Schiff (@RepAdamSchiff) Tweeted:
Congress has asked for the entire Mueller report, and underlying evidence, by April 2. That deadline stands.

In the meantime, Barr should seek court approval (just like in Watergate) to allow the release of grand jury material.

Redactions are unacceptable. #ReleaseTheReport

11. Nothing paranoid about it except for Trump and Barr.

Schiff's response apparently went viral enough that a poll was not needed for Barr to rethink his actions. I think.
