Alan Dershowitz Discusses the Conniving Political Duplicity of Team Mueller…
Alan Dershowitz is exactly correct on the point; but he’s incorrect on the Mueller team’s motive.
Team Mueller didn’t punt the Obstruction issue to the Attorney General because Mueller’s a coward…. Team Mueller punted the Obstruction issue because they specifically wanted to create room for The House to work an impeachment angle. It was a political decision.
AFAIK and I could of course be totally wrong, the proper procedure is for the SC to send the report to the AG and Barr and the DAG RR were the ones to say “no obstruction” since there was no crimes committed and therefore no actual case.
If I’m wrong totally or partically, someone please edify!
One
Question
Only....
Exactly how does one "obstruct" an investigation that did not, after two years and untold cost and burden to the entire nation, prove any offense?
(You will, of course, pardon my lack of civility if I add a very loud and offensive "DUH!!!"....)
GOOD COMMENTS ON THAT CTH ARTICLE:
“Actually I think Barr did make the call–as he says, along with Rod Rosenstein, to not charge after SC Mueller left the question open.
His logic about whether to charge for Obstruction of Justice is impeccable–no crime, most purported “actions” in public (probably tweets), and overall any action does not meet the guidelines used for such charges.
The fact that the Left would ignore that is not surprising–remember that rules are for “the little people”—or anyone not in their sphere.
And again, Barr was absolutely correct to retain Rosenstein so that he can be on the hook for this decision, as well as helping to find the 6(e) and other materials from Mueller’s report that cannot be made public.
DeGenova told us that Barr was a good guy and I”m seeing the evidence to back-up DeGenova’s claim.”

“Barr putting “difficult issues” in scare quotes is a slap at Mueller. Barr is (gently?) mocking him, saying, in effect: “difficult”? Really??
He then proceeds to explain why it’s not a difficult issue.”

“Dershowitz is trying to curry favor with Trump because he knows he’s exposed with the Epstein case.
If he can prove he’s been helping to inoculate Trump he goes hopes he will himself be inoculated for his trips on the Lisa Lolita Express.
That’s his game. His only game.”
