No Obstruction is deader than fried chicken.


Mueller stated very clearly that no matter what they found, they had determined very early that they could not indict a sitting president.

1. He DID say that had they had evidence to clear Trump, they would so have said. They did not.

2. He utterly knee-capped Barr’s assertion regarding “non-traditional prosecutorial decision, leaving it up to Barr. He said no such thing at all. He mentioned, “under our constitution there is one means to charge …” — That is Congress’s job, not Barr’s. Again, demonstrating Barr lied his ass off.

3. Obstruction relates to number one, “finding sufficient evidence” is near impossible when the main people are obstructing, lying, won’t talk, etcetera.
