Thursday is shaping up to be an interesting day. The long-awaited Mueller Report is scheduled to be released. On March 24th the AG had announced the results of the Mueller investigation. It exonerated PDJT and his campaign of all wrongdoing during the 2016 election campaign. It confirmed what PDJT had said all along.
On Wednesday, it was announced that, at 9:30 AM on Thursday, the AG will hold a press conference followed by release of the report between 11 and 12. This set the Democrats’ hair on fire. Leading the charge was Rep. Adam Schiff who had teased America for two years with comments. These comments made it seem like he knew “classified” stuff that showed without a shadow of a doubt that PDJT was guilty. All of that vanished along with his credibility when AG Barr announced “No collusion.”
Just been informed by DOJ that we’ll receive Mueller’s report only after Barr gives a press conference.
Once again, Barr wants to shape the public’s perception of the report.
This is on top of reports DOJ secretly briefed the White House.
This is not justice. Just PR.

A question for Rep. Schiff should be, “Why wouldn’t the AG give a press conference?” Most likely he will describe the process from beginning to end, including the redaction process.
The problem here for the Democrats is that the truth will be out again (No collusion with Russia) without them having the ability to try to diminish it by twisting certain portions of it to their advantage. As the NYTimes pointed out a while back, it is all about “building a narrative.” The Democrats want to build a narrative in the public’s mind but, they can’t do this until the report is released.
Big Corporate Media and the Democrats managed to force the Justice Department to engage in a two-year-long wild goose chase. For two years the Democrats had their turn at building a narrative through leaks, innuendo, etc. The MSM hired former Obama administration officials who, as recently as a few weeks before its release, were saying that people in the White House would be indicted.
John Brennan said,
“I wouldn’t be surprised if for example this week on Friday, not knowing anything about it, but Friday is the day the grand jury indictments come down and also this Friday is better than next Friday because next Friday is the 15th of March, which is the Ides of March,” Brennan said. “And I don’t think Robert Mueller will want to have that dramatic flair of the Ides of March when he is going to be delivering what I think are going to be are his indictments, the final indictments as well the report.”
“I do think also if anybody from the Trump family, extended family is going to be indicted, it would be the final act of Mueller’s investigation because Bob Muller and his team knows if he were to do something, indicting a Trump family member or if he were to go forward with indictment on criminal conspiracy involving U.S. persons, that would be that would basically be the deathknell of the special counsel’s office because I don’t believe Donald Trump would allow Bob Mueller to continue in the aftermath of those types of actions,”
Rep. Jerry Nadler joined the Democratic outrage. The House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) tore into Attorney General William Barr, accusing him of “waging a media campaign on behalf of President Trump” ahead of the release of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report.
Of course, Rep. Nadler is “deeply troubled.” The public will hear from the DOJ before they hear from the Democrats. How can that be fair? (SARC) The Dems have lost control of a narrative that they owned for two tears. And that is the point. It’s all about the Dems spinning a narrative to try to salvage some credibility with the American public.
The Democrats always project their own malfeasance and fears onto others. Rep. Cummings is doing that here. Just how much trust will the American people have in the Democratic Party after this?
Other Democratic representatives demanded that the full report be released, that the public has a right to see the full, unredacted report. The Democrats have been spreading this false idea for some time. AG Barr in conjunction with SC Mueller have removed info from the report (classified, grand jury, ongoing investigations, etc.) that is required to be removed.
So-called journalists joined the outrage party.
And there were others who echoed this line of thought.
Rep. Collins pointed out the obvious.
The level of outrage on the Democratic side of the aisle may be unprecedented. It may indicate their level of fear about untoward conclusions that the American public may reach about this whole sordid affair. They desparately need to sell a narrative to the American public, the truth be damned.
There may be something else they are concerned about. Is this what they fear?
John Soloman:
One text message has always stuck out in my mind… And that is the text message from Peter Strzok to Lisa Page after coming out of one of the meetings… And the text says, “The White House is running this.” I covered law enforcement for 30 years. The White House does not normally run counter intelligence for Justice Department investigations. That text remained in my head for a long time. And over the last few weeks I’ve been reporting, I think Victoria in the last segment had something really important. She said January 1, 2017, there was at least one White House meeting. I think next week we’ll be talking about a meeting one year earlier where the origins of the Trump collusion case begin. A whole year earlier.
So Solomon is saying that the Plot may have been undertaken with President Obama’s knowledge a lot earlier that has been reported elsewhere. And what about that trip that former President Obama made to Germany to “visit” with Angela Merkel recently? What was that all about?
