Notations From the Grid (Special W-End Edition): On @POTUS Watch Re #MuellerReport

The Mueller Report is out — and it has been making the headlines. President Trump has been fundraising off it. We here present a sampling of all the discourse throughout the past few days as the report continues to be analyzed & discussed — as the debate may switch to impeachment even though it will not happen due to the total control the Republicans have in the United States Senate:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 18, 2019
Contact: Emily Phelps | press@indivisible.org

Washington, DC — The Indivisible Project’s national policy director Angel Padilla released the following statement in response to the release of the redacted Mueller report:

“The Mueller report is finally out thanks to the efforts from Indivisibles and grassroot activists who were relentless in their demands for transparency. Still, we are disappointed in the heavy redactions placed on the report and the many questions left unanswered. Congress must now press Barr to provide them with the full report and continue to investigate.

“It’s clear the White House would prefer to keep the public in the dark, and that Barr was specifically chosen for this reason. We fully support House Democrats utilizing their oversight and investigative powers to continue to get to the truth and to make it clear that no one is above the law.

“As we look to 2020 and beyond, one of Indivisible’s main priorities is to protect and expand our democracy by fighting for more transparency, more accountability and a bigger voice in our own government. The Mueller report is just one part of this fight. Nevertheless, we will continue demanding the truth.”

President Trump is spending the week-end at his Estate in Florida as the implications continue — he has been lashing out on Twitter at one time attacking folks who took notes — as the White House Counsel Don McGahn noted now Real Lawyers took notes. A Culture of dishonesty was what the New York Times documented — and has been releasing clips of Fox News commentary as well.

As we went to Press, here was the latest out of Congress as the ramifications of the report continue:

Late last month, President Trump met with a group of Republican senators on Capitol Hill. He discussed a lot of topics, but his most memorable comment came when he called Trump-Russia special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation “two years of bullshit.”

Now, the public has Mueller’s 448-page report, and it tends to support the president’s assessment.

We wish all a great Easter Weekend.
