Speaker Pelosi has promised a full investigation

Attorney General William P. Barr is expected to release special counsel Robert Mueller’s report to Congress and the public on Thursday morning, a Justice Department official said Monday.
The nearly 400-page report is the most anticipated political report in the last 20 years as both Republicans and Democrats scramble to defend or attack President Trump in the wake of its release.
Mr. Barr summarized the special counsel’s findings last month in a four-page letter to Congress. He wrote Mr. Mueller concluded there wasn’t evidence to indicate Mr. Trump or members of his campaign conspired with Russia to win the White House. Mr. Barr and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein also concluded there was not enough evidence Mr. Trump obstructed the Russia probe, a decision Mr. Mueller’s team declined to make.
Although Mr. Barr’s summary apparently clears the president of the most damning charge, collusion, there is still much debate over the obstruction issue. The attorney general said there is not enough evidence to charge Mr. Trump with obstruction. But he also did not give him a pass, saying the report does not conclude he committed a crime but does not exonerate him.
Nonetheless, Mr. Trump has already claimed “total exoneration” based on the four-page summary.

OMG, will this never end...……….
“Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends....”
Dan Bongino postulates that the entire Mueller probe was never going to be about “collusion” but was intended from the start to be about “obstruction”.
In his opinion (and there may be some creedence to it) collusion would be a “black and white” issue...there is either proof of collusion, or there isn’t. In his words, like a bank robbery, the bank was either robbed or it wasn’t.
Obstruction is a judgement call.
See my post above. I understand your point, but just as lying to a federal investigator is still prosecutable as lying, obstruction to an investigation, even one investigating a setup, is still obstruction.
At least, that is how the left sees it. Scum, all.
Mueller said Trump did not obstruct his investigation.
Any other form of obstruction requires evidence of a crime. There is no crime. What exactly was obstructed?
Nothing was obstructed. You know it and I know it.
But reality is not the currency of the Left. What is reality is not important, it is what tool may be used to bring down Trump (or any non-RINO Republican, and even them too sometimes as Bob Packwood illustrated)
We see it for the sham it is.
