📌Openly that Trump’s conduct is not impeachable.
📌The witnesses lack credibility.
📌It is perfectly appropriate for the president to use his powers to aid his campaign effort

Trump was elected w/ RU’s help & they lied abt contacts incessantly, why?
Barr & Mueller are forbidden to talk abt prosecutions filed under seal at various jurisdictions & abt active GJ matters & active inv’s.
Unsealed indictments will reveal Mueller’s Report.

Per RR: you can’t speak disparagingly about a person if they have not been charged with a crime (re: Comey re HRC)

📌Chatter est’d 2 week delay is consistent w/ the likelihood indictments cannot be unsealed until Congress has rec’d the MR
📌Barr: the WH will get the MR before the public, in case it wants to make redactions.
📌Trump‘s legal team cannot redact indictments.🤗
