BREAKING: Barr to Hold Press Conference Ahead of Mueller Report Release
Townhall.com ^ | April 17, 2019 | Katie Pavlich

Attorney General Bill Barr announced Wednesday afternoon he will hold a joint press conference with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein Thursday morning at 9:30 et. At that time, Barr will speak about the release of the long awaited Special Counsel report from the Justice Department.

Earlier this month Barr released a four page letter outlining the principle findings of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s nearly two year long investigation into the 2016 presidential election: no collusion with Russia and no obstruction of justice from President Trump during the investigation.

"The Special Counsel's investigation did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russia in its efforts to influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election. As the report states: "[T]he investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities," the letter states.

Sessions was such a zero even Delta House wouldn’t pledge him.

He doesn't sound like he's from Harrisburg.

My statement for Mr Barr:

Although it has been a divisive, contested process that has strained the unity of this nation, I am grateful to the Mueller team for their conclusions and their findings, much of which has provided the basis for investigations into probable crimes committed by the DNC and other players. More information regarding subsequent followup by the DOJ will be forthcoming. I will not be taking any questions. Thank you.

I believe you’re right on the mark, he’s sick of it and wants it to just go away.

Barr does not impress me. He is of the swamp. What impresses me is not necessarily relevant. Opinions vary.

I enjoy forums where profanity is permitted. I left out a word or two... children and whatnot.

He has said nothing, in fact Barr a week ago said that he told Mueller, who he is friends with, if you have anything to say, anything at all about the findings, feel free to go on TV or wherever you want to discuss it and Mueller said NO..he wants no part of this nonsense anymore, if he had something to say he would have said it

I’m already impressed with Attorney General, Barr, on his anti-catch and release ruling.

I saw this opinion piece today by Rod Rosenstein and his high praise of Bill Barr.

Interesting...

Beer buddies create doubt? It's sooooo common in those professions.

Barr is doing just fine. You can tell by the panic of the Dems.

Barr and Mueller’s people have been doing the redacting....so it’s not just the work of Barr. And he’s gonna tell the Dems...”you go after me...and you’ll be going after Mueller and all the Dem lawyers who worked for him during this “witch hunt”.

Notice how the Dems dont want Mueller in front of Congress/Senate, why is that..I thought they consider Mueller some kind of God, yet they dont want to ask him any questions about his precious report why is that..oh we already know why because they know if they brought Mueller in front of America he would say there was NEVER any collusion, the whole thing was BS from the start

There is only one Dem lawyer I want to go down Weissmann! Mueller did his job by running the clock out.

Great. It is about time an AG supports the President who is the real victim of this witch hunt.

I want the bastards who did this coup against our country to pay for their crimes

They have done irreparable damage to our country and it’s standing in the world

They have sabotaged American foreign policy , damaged our relationship with Russia and screwed up a potential deal with North Korea

I have personally lost life long friends over my refusal to condemn President Trump and to try to be a voice of reason and truth in the face of egregious lies

I want payback

I think the fact that Mueller has not said ONE peep since the report has come out means he knows there was NEVER anything there to begin with, he wants no part of this bogus BS anymore

Mueller also knows that he has legal jeopardy for his dirty deeds with Uranium One. (let alone the corrupt crap he did while at the FBI that probably has a statute of limitations). Has he cut a deal with Barr to play nice while Barr goes after the corrupt FBI/DOJ/CIA/NSA/Obama Admin critters?

Payback is more than warranted for the traitors behind this attempted coup, every last one of them.

I want to know WHEN did Mueller know there was no collusion?
At the start? Before the mid terms? WHEN?

I like the idea of issuing a high profile arrest on the same day. Like arrest a congresscritter for leaking or Comey for leaking.

Then the media would cover that and not make fake news be reading the chicken bones left in the mueller report.

Ah but Rosenstein threw him a bone by expanding his investigation after the fact.
