I feel like Nintex is illiterate or something.

The report basically says what everybody more or less expected.

Tons of contact with Russia.
-  Manafort was feeding them information that helped them target their disinformation.
- Both sides did it because they thought they were helping each other out.
- Trunp campaign was trying to get Hillary’s emails through any means possible, legal or no
- probably worse shit that was successfully covered up by a series of lies and obstruction
- Trump worse than Nixon in cover up.

That’s basically the same thing everybody thought it would show.... they were just hoping for more indictments. But it’s clear that the people saying Don Jr. should get indicted were very close to the mark, as the report goes into a fair amount of detail flat out explaining he probably committed a crime, but it would be hard to prosecute.

One thing that is pissing me off as I read through the report, is that given how evasive and uncooperative Trump was in his written responses, Mueller definitely should of subpoenaed him.

Especially when earlier you make note and essentially state outright that evidence being destroyed and poor cooperation stymied investigative leads.

I believe Mueller made it clear in the report that the reason he didn't subpenor Trump was because the White House would have fought it forever and it would have put the whole investigation on hold forever and the report would take years (more years) to finish. It seems clear to me that Mueller thinks he already had more than enough for Congress to take over and start the impeachment process and the delay in getting an interview with Trump wasn't worth it/necessary.

I think that is clearly correct.

However, it also seems that Mueller(based on how Democrats are mostly reacting), likely misjudged the politics on that and because of that we are not ever going to have Trump’s feet to the fire on matters pertinent to both obstruction and conspiracy.

I suspect it would be boring, he would just be spamming Aaron Mate and Glenn Greenwald tweets and trying to dance around his prior endorsement of the Seth Rich conspiracy. While claiming he didn’t call Mandark a coward or put me on ignore for frustrating him over calling out his conspiracy bullshit.

His political aptitude was Filler/Nintex levels, he just wrapped it up in bloviated language and wank daddery.

Especially when earlier you make note and essentially state outright that evidence being destroyed and poor cooperation stymied investigative leads.

I think John Favreau or somebody mentioned that a likely reason not to do that is because it would go to the courts to decide which would delay the final conclusions of the Mueller Report until we're a lot closer to November 2020. Basically tainting the report as a reverse-Comey.

As it is now, the report outright says that there are 10 obstruction charges possible and it's up to Congress/America to figure out what to do with it.

Impeachment is impossible and a failed impeachment just looks bad for Democrats so probably the best thing to do is to repeat over and over that he's a criminal and keep trying to pass legislation that broadens the scope of investigations into the president and those campaigning to be president. Maybe take away their immunity from prosecution?

Reuters, about those armed vigilantes from yesterday:

Quote
They post near daily videos showing members dressed in camouflage and armed with semi-automatic rifles holding groups of migrants, many of them Central American families seeking asylum, until U.S. Border Patrol agents arrive to arrest them.

The real story here is that the Border Patrol knows about an armed group of rednecks kidnapping people on the border, interacts with them, and does nothing about it.

California Republican Rep. Duncan Hunter and his Democratic challenger Ammar Campa-Najjar traded Twitter barbs Thursday over a video Hunter posted in which he appeared to suggest he was crossing the southern border into Mexico.

Campa-Najjar sent an email to the Times of San Diego, with the subject line: “Hunter breaks the law violates parol,” meaning parole.

Hunter and his wife, who at times has also served as his campaign treasurer, were indicted by a federal grand jury last August and pleaded not guilty to the charges at an arraignment days later. They were released on $15,000 bond. He will face trial later this year.

According to the Times of San Diego, Hunter’s bond forbids him from traveling outside the continental United States.

In the video, Hunter eases himself over a railing before proclaiming, “That’s how easy it is to cross the border in Yuma, Arizona.”

But Hunter, the legally embattled Republican from California’s 50th District, did not actually cross into Mexico at the border as he appeared to claim in the video. The railing was a vehicle barrier positioned roughly 75 to 100 feet away from the Colorado River — the actual U.S.-Mexico border in Yuma.

“It looks pretty tough to cross. Let me see if I can do it,” Hunter says in the video, before sweeping his legs up and over the waist-high vehicle barrier’s horizontal bar and plopping down on the other side.
Quote
Hunter spokesman Michael Harrison lambasted Campa-Najjar, saying the Democrat was seeking media attention and drumming up controversy.

“Congressman Hunter remained in the U.S. … I recognize our opponent is trying to create a headline, but I would encourage him and others to look and review a map,” Harrison said, per a reporter for POLITICO California.

Campa-Najjar fired back that Hunter was the one trying to stir the pot by claiming he was in Mexico.

Hunter either broke the law and violated the conditions of his release or was pulling a political stunt, Campa-Najjar said, according to the Times of San Diego.

Hunter faces trial in September on 60 federal charges related to spending more than $250,000 in campaign funds on personal expenses such as a family vacation to Italy and dental work.
https://twitter.com/Rep_Hunter/status/1118944290816831489

Border Patrol spokesman Vincent Dulesky in Yuma confirmed that in a phone interview.

“What [Hunter] crossed was a vehicle barrier,” said Dulesky, who helped lead the Wednesday night tour. “That is approximately 75-100 feet from the border — the border is actually the river that’s west of that.”

He said 10 years ago, border agents were having trouble with “drive-throughs,” so vehicle barriers were installed.

“It has now become a hot spot because that’s now where the majority of the pedestrian traffic is coming through because obviously it’s easier to transverse,” he said.

“But it’s not the boundary between Mexico and the U.S. — that’s another 75 feet west of that actual area.”

After being informed of this, Campa-Najjar said in a final email: “Can Hunter’s spokesperson please show Hunter a map? He was the one who falsely advertised he was 15 meters from Mexico. He also needs to be shown the Colorado River, which is a secondary barrier he’d need to cross to actually get to Mexico.
