Mueller Report on Scribd
Now that President @realDonaldTrump‘s campaign press conference is over:
It’s time for Congress and the American public to see the #MuellerReport.

AG Barr has confirmed the staggering partisan effort by the Trump Admin to spin public’s view of the #MuellerReport – complete with acknowledgment that the Trump team received a sneak preview. It’s more urgent than ever that Special Counsel Mueller testify before Congress. https://t.co/waoGzLntlt

It is clear Congress and the American people must hear from Special Counsel Robert Mueller in person to better understand his findings. We are now requesting Mueller to appear before @HouseJudiciary as soon as possible. pic.twitter.com/Mmo6PA4KPt

The AG is supposed to serve as the country’s top law enforcement officer – someone who stands up for the rule of law & defends the US Constitution against all enemies, foreign or domestic.
William Barr is standing up for only one person: the President of the United States.

The American people deserve the truth.
Not spin from a Trump appointee.
Release Mueller’s full report now.

We want to hear from Director Mueller himself. pic.twitter.com/O1DYnsAKlm

AG Barr’s press conference was a farce and an embarrassing display of propaganda on behalf of President Trump. Barr works for the people, not the president. They deserve to know Mueller’s full findings because nobody—especially not the president—is immune from accountability.

The House Intelligence Committee has formally invited Special Counsel Mueller to testify on the counterintelligence investigation.
After a two year investigation, the public deserves the facts, not Attorney General Barr’s political spin. pic.twitter.com/PWIXvl7MLv

Barr is acting more like Trump’s defense attorney than the nation’s Attorney General. His press conference was a stunt, filled with political spin and propaganda.⁰ ⁰Americans deserve the unvarnished truth. We need Special Counsel Mueller to testify publicly in Congress.

The President spent years trying to impair the independence of the Justice Department. He’s getting that now.
Regardless of what we learn in Mueller’s report, this press conference represents an unprecedented breach of that independence, and terrible damage to our institutions.

It isn’t the job of the Attorney General of the United States to protect the President, to provide political spin, or to engage in a cover-up.
AG Barr’s job is to enforce our laws and protect the integrity and independence of the Justice Department. He failed the country today.
