The Mueller Report is finished and the results are known. There was no evidence whatsoever of Russian collusion by Trump or anyone associated with him. There was no evidence whatsoever of any conspiracies amongst Trump and his people. And there was no objective evidence that Trump made any attempt to obstruct justice , even though Mueller – in a spectacular act of weasel-wording – chose to say that this lack of evidence ” did not exonerate ” Trump , and the decision should be made by the Attorney General of the United States. And that decision was ( drum roll )… that there was no obstruction of justice.
We should be in a celebratory mood over the Mueller Report , but we’re not. After all , we’ve known the charges were baseless since before Trump was even sworn in. Nor can we take any pleasure in the notion that Mueller’s Report is going to change the dialogue in the media or in Washington DC , because it won’t make a damn dime’s worth of difference. MSNBC , CNN , and the roughly five thousand Democratic presidential candidates are already out there proclaiming that this two year , $40 million dollar investigation doesn’t clear Trump of anything. As AOC notably said ( and we paraphrase for intelligibility ) ” it’s more important to be morally right than factually accurate.”
This comes as no surprise and , at this point , not even much of a disappointment. But what does concern us – a lot – is what comes next in terms of bringing to justice the many high-ranking officials , including Obama , Hillary , and various intelligence heads , who tried to destroy the American election system and , failing that , subsequently attempted a Presidential coup d’etat.
That’s the type of thing traditionally sorted out with fair trials and firing squads , although we’d be satisfied to see long , long jail sentences. Obama did a pretty good job of emptying his friends and allies out of our containment facilities at Guantanamo Bay , so we know there’s plenty of room down there for those enemies of our nation and Constitution who no longer deserve the privilege of living on American soil.
