Mueller Report Released – Spin cycle begins

Both Democrats and Republicans are already spinning their talking points concerning the Mueller report even if they have only had time to skim the over 448-page document, or more likely, have not read it at all.

Trump’s legal team issued a statement minutes after the report’s release online, calling it “a total victory for the President. The report underscores what we have argued from the very beginning — there was no collusion — there was no obstruction.”

Speaking at a White House event around the same time as the release, Trump said it was “a good day.”

Charlie Kirk, the Founder & President of Turning Point USA tweeted:

The Mueller Report provides evidence that the Russian Internet Research Agency used their efforts to SUPPORT @BernieSanders

Will there be a two year investigation into Bernie Sanders for what the media has been calling collusion for the past two years?

CNN headline and the accompanying story cherry picked an except without reporting the entire statement: “Everyone tells me if you get one of these independent counsels it ruins your presidency…it takes years and years and I won’t be able to do anything.”

CNN’s chief legal analyst, Jeffrey Toobin, stated during a CNN panel discussion: “He was frustrated, and that’s evidence of guilt! That is not evidence of innocence. Happy people don’t obstruct justice! ”

Presidential candidate Eric Swallwell appearing on MSNBC called for A.G. Barr to resign and said that the “President needs to acknowledge that Russia attacked us and calls the Trump a ‘double digit obstructer.’”
