Why isn’t the Mueller report being released?

Are you still weeping because the right leaning judge knows your hero is a crook and knows the report shows evidence of his corruption? While you're on here holding Trump's water, he's probably at Mar-A-Lago giggling about how he conned people into voting for him.

Actually I laughing at your failing in your attempt to defend a statement lesh made up.

The rest of your partisan tripe is dismissed.

Dismissed! Oh, you want to be like Mycroft! I get it. Maybe he'll take you to the next Birther meeting. You'll fit in.

You're just flailing now tres.

You should have stopped before you posted that link in support of lesh's statement, when actually it didn't even come close.

I'm flailing because you're crying over some man who doesn't even know you're alive? That's classic!

If you want to be like Mycroft, you can. You're well on your way, actually.
 
How long has it been since the report's completion? A week now?

However long, there's no legitimate excuse for it taking this long, for there really is no precedent for a federal special counsel/independent prosecutor reports taking this long to release.
Besides being wrong you are just engaged in silly impatience.

No matter how much you want to compare, dissimilar investigations are not comparable.
And any investigation done under an Independent Counsel as set forth in the expired Ethics in Government Act, is not relevant. The Counsel there was able (not required) to report to Congress what they deemed relevant, which is different than making a confidential report to the AG as now required.
So there is no comparisons to be made there either.

Furthermore, things are required by law to be redacted and since this started as a counter inelegance investigation you also have the additional requirement to protect sources and methods.


If you think this is an actual issue then dispute what AG Barr says.

Red:
I'm sorry, but that the "protecting counterintelligence sources and methods" line does not explain why the House and Senate Intelligence committee members, along with other members of Congress who have all the security clearance needed to read anything that may pertain to sources and methods, have not yet received the complete Mueller report.

You have no valid argument. It is an additional process that needs to happen prior to his stated release.
All you are doing is displaying irrational impatience.

You're still flailing tres. Your last two posts were attempts to make this about me, you've failed.

You were wrong in your attempt to defend lesh's statement and lesh was wrong in the attempt to make up something Napolitano said to bolster his/her agenda. Hell lesh didn't even defend the statement.

Stop digging tres.

I suspect the chairman of the HPSCI will soon remind the DOJ of this little law...

(e) Construction of authority conferred
Nothing in this chapter shall be construed as authority to withhold information from the congressional intelligence committees on the grounds that providing the information to the congressional intelligence committees would constitute the unauthorized disclosure of classified information or information relating to intelligence sources and methods.

Irrelevant to the time it is taking to prepare for release.
They can request what they want after it is submitted.

They can and will request it when they want... The DOJ has no legal basis for withholding any of the information from the HPSCI... None...

Whatever they are "deciding to release" is irrelevant... The HPSCI is entitle to get the FULL report when they request it from the DOJ.

If anything I am amused by your apparent misunderstanding of the power and authority of the HPSCI. The DOJ does not need to prepare anything for the HPSCI. They will get a FULL copy.. no reactions...

Apparently you do not know much then with such a false claim
But way to deflect by making irrelevant commentary to the time it is taking AG Barr, with the assistance of the Special Counsel, to prepare for release.

Again, there is nothing to prepare for release...

Maybe we should discuss 50 USC 3092

(2) furnish the congressional intelligence committees any information or material concerning intelligence activities (including the legal basis under which the intelligence activity is being or was conducted), other than covert actions, which is within their custody or control, and which is requested by either of the congressional intelligence committees in order to carry out its authorized responsibilities.

To put this in context. 4 pages is less than the typical high school book report, and it was written by someone specifically hired by the accused to downplay the report as he's got a long history of getting criminals off the hook.

More crock from you!

A quick historical review of Mueller on Debate Politics will show that liberals were fawning all over him............... when you all thought he was going to hang Trump.

My god....you people never stop and it's getting pretty disgusting.
 
Again, there is nothing to prepare for release...
1. You have no clue as to what you speak.

2. If you think that you do, you need to take it up with AG Barr and Mr. Mueller who is helping him prepare it for release.

What you find droll has no relevance.
That you can not admit you have no valid argument is not my issue. It is yours.
 
There's a huge difference in seeing the report and seeing ever single word in the report. Your poll means nothing. Barr just announced today how he was handling it.

"handling it"

And we should trust him?

WHY?

He has said he will release 400 pages...of a 700 page REPORT?

Yeah, what the hell. A career lawyer and the nation's highest law enforcement office is full of **** and your expertise rules.

Who said it was 700 pages? Barr said it was "about 300 pages".
 
The nation has been eagerly awaiting the Mueller report for two years now. It came out, and is apparently over 300 pages long. Barr released a four page summary of it, and that was that.

President Trump has said he has no problems with a full report being released. Is the justice dept worried about sources and methods being compromised? If so, they could just release a classified copy to Congress.

The longer they keep this eagerly awaited document from people who want to see it, it seems the worse it’s going to be for them. So what’s the hold up?

Barr released a summary of Mueller's conclusions, its required. The important thing is Muellers did not conclude that Trump commited a crime.
