Here we go... Mueller speaks!
http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/mueller-to-make-1st-public-statement-on-russia-probe/ar-AAC5ohl?ocid=ientp
We are finally going to hear directly from Special Counsel Mueller.
After all that has transpired, I can't wait to hear what he has to say.
Grab the popcorn, political fans!
Edit, post news conference:
Looks like a nothing burger, which is disappointing.
Mueller basically said he isn't going to testify in front of Congress without a subpoena and he wants to be a private citizen again.
More or less he reiterated what the Mueller report says. No Collusion, inconclusiveness on Obstruction of Justice, but that the forum for that is not within the purview of the Justice Department.
He implied strongly that any action against the President must be done via Congress and Impeachment.
Now I guess we wait and see what Congress says about this.

SPC Martin Wiesiolek - You make so many assumptions. What a sad life you must lead. Try reality some time. It really is much better than living in delusions.

I hope the standard in the United States is still a person is innocent until proven guilty. In that case, Pres Trump is not guilty of collusion with Russians. In which case, it is difficult to make a case for obstruction of justice, because there is no underlying crime the investigation of which was obstructed.
It's time for Congress and the President to move on to doing the work of the People. If nothing else gets done, We the People should expect Congress and the President to pass and sign budgets and authorizations. We should hold them accountable at the ballot box if they don't get this job done. Lots of other stuff would be nice like immigration reform, infrastructure improvement, health care reform, passing the US-Mexico-Canada Trade Treaty. We need a budget and authorizations so the Government can continue to work without continuing resolutions and other non-solutions to the problem.

CDR Ron Miller
Muller said he could not exonerate him for obstruction - and listed at least the 10 obstruction acts he committed - (I.e. guilty) but was prevented by the OLC rule to indict. Facts matter. Listen to what Muller said, read what the report stated. GOP or DEM the constitution and rule of law should mean something. Just heard McConnell chuckle that he'll appoint a SCOTUS doing a 180 on his violating the Constitution by not having a hearing and vote on Gorsuch. No need to reply, everyone is entitle to their opinion and I know 45's supporters believe what they are told.

CDR Ron Miller - Ron, investigators do not "exonerate" anyone. They either bring charges/indictments forward or they do not and they move on. Mueller and team did not indict a single person for collusion (not a crime), conspiracy or obstruction. Not a single person. If he had the evidence on anyone on team Trump he could have and would have done so regardless of standing DOJ opinions that a sitting president cannot be indicted.
Mueller listed 10 incidents but then did not raise a charge and the AG elected not to bring one forward either as the did not rise to obstruction and factually speaking, there were no underlying crimes to obstruct.
These are matter of law not just Trump supporters opinions or believing what they are told to believe. That is an easy way for you to ignore what has happened perhaps but it does not change what actually happened.

MSgt Steve Sweeney - Poor Steve, no collision, no obstruction, Mueller gone, special counsel office closed and now you have to rely on Chunky Nadler, Hairplugs Schumer and Dazed and Confused Pelosi to try to deliver you Trump on a platter. You are teamed up with a bunch of losers but I am sure you are right at home there mister E8, just couldn't make it all the way to E9, just too hard eh. Those NBC gigs are just too tough aren't they.
