Quick thoughts on Mueller report
1/ No more indictments = good new for White House. All that talk of other members of Trump world getting hit by Mueller is done.

2/ A massive row with Congress is coming. Democrats will want the underlying evidence sitting below the report. Whatever Attorney General hands over is unlikely to be enough.
3/ This Is Not The End. While Mueller is done, other federal prosecutors continue to investigate. NY looking at hush money payments, insurance schemes. Those lines of inquiry are independent of Mueller.
4/ Big fight now is what Mueller found + decided on Trump. Any evidence of criminality or not? Evidence of wrongdoing? Can Congress see it? What exactly did he conclude?
[Central to this is the Justice Dep guidelines that a sitting president cannot be indicted. Did that factor into Mueller's thinking?]
Needless to say extremely little is still known about report and info on its conclusions is coming from the [Trump appointed] Justice Dep. Lots more to learn.
