NEW: Stuff sure is moving quickly now. The DOJ says there will be TWO versions of the Mueller report tomorrow. One for the public and another for select members of Congress. What's the difference? The special version for lawmakers will have fewer redactions, @kpolantz reports.
This stems from the gag order on Roger Stone's case, according to court filings. The filings confirm that there is information about Roger Stone in the Mueller report, and that it will be redacted. Why? His trial is coming up this year and they can't prejudice potential jurors.

16/ "Special Counsel Mueller did not indicate that his purpose was to leave the decision to Congress," Barr said. "I hope that was not his view, since we don't convene grand juries and conduct criminal investigations for that purpose."
17/ Those comments gave the impression that Mueller might not have mentioned Congress at all.
18/ Mueller never explicitly said that Congress should pick up the baton where he left off. But he did directly nod to Congress' unique powers to hold a President accountable for misconduct.

MINI-THREAD: Here's my analysis of the widening divide between what Attorney General William Barr said publicly about the Russia investigation and special counsel Robert Mueller's actual report. Here are the four major ways Barr twisted Mueller's words. cnn.com/2019/04/19/pol…
1/ One thing was crystal clear from Barr's press conference: No collusion! The attorney general's willingness to echo President Donald Trump's favorite two-word mantra was evident throughout his remarks.
2/ "The special counsel confirmed that the Russian government sponsored efforts to illegally interfere with the 2016 presidential election but did not find that the Trump campaign or other Americans colluded in those schemes," Barr said Thursday morning.

THREAD: The Mueller report coming out Thursday.... the long wait is over.... here are 9 unanswered questions that the report might finally answer. cnn.com/2019/04/14/pol…
1) Will we learn anything new on collusion? We already know Mueller's bottom-line: the investigation "did not establish" a criminal conspiracy of collusion. But the report could have new details on Trump-Russia contacts, who knew about them, and more. cnn.com/2019/04/14/pol…
2) Did Mueller see "collusion" as a crime? There is no specific US law that says "collusion" is a crime. So which potential criminal violations was Mueller looking at when he investigated Trump associates for collusion? The legal theory will be intriguing. cnn.com/2019/04/14/pol…

🏆Congress🏆

🏆Power of Oversight🏆

Upon carrying out its Constitutional obligations of oversight, it is up to Congress—not Bill Barr and not Robert Mueller—to determine if Trump is fit to be president and whether or not any of his behavior rises to the level of impeachment.
🏆Congress🏆

Mueller:

“The conclusion that Congress may apply the obstruction laws to the President’s corrupt exercise of the powers of office accords with our Constitutional system of checks and balances and the principles that no person is above the law.”
🏆Congress🏆

Sounds like an impeachment referral.

The Mueller report paints a very damning portrait of Trump.

It paints a picture of someone who knew RU was interfering, invited that interference, & then did everything in his power to stop the inv’n into that interference.

[Pg 11] Previously CLAS 'scope' > [Rod Rosenstein] to [MUELLER]
The scope memo [highlighted w/in Mueller report] confirms the dossier was the tool used by [RR] to justify Special Counsel & was the primary vehicle to which [RR] tasked MUELLER.

scribd.com/document/40672…
If dossier was known to be unverified & fake, how then was an investigation started to begin with?
At what point did #MUELLER determine there was no collusion? [18 mths ago? (Oct 17)]

Rosenstein Has To Answer For Appointing Mueller As Special Council

radio.foxnews.com/2019/04/19/joh…
Was #investigation kept ongoing as a talking point to rig midterm elections?

Was investigation kept ongoing to retain #BLOCKADE to essentially restrict POTUS from unmasking & informing the public as to #TRUTH abt what really happened?

Seth's @SethAbramson lengthy thread on his take away from Barr's planned release of the redacted #Mueller report, the event's leading up to it, with links to related items. Definitely worth your time to read carefully. #GeeksResist #TheResistance #HeroesResist #VeteransResist
UPDATE 1: My friend Bryan @ "Why Now?' posted a blog with links to various related items of interest. Please check them out also.

UPDATE 2: Digby @ Hullabaloo posted an article w/ a possible reason Mueller let Don Jr. off the hook so easily! Explanation by Election Law expert Rick Hasen. It was a bad decision by Mueller IMO.

Mueller report, a warning:
They have spent every single day since Mueller was appointed, on every single TV network, in every single national print / text outlet, on every national radio news outlet, sewing doubt about Mueller and his investigation.
-- more
2. Now the plan is, get the report, after a month or six weeks of Kabuki Theater, and use it as the basis for further action.
If the #BlueWave wasn't really a #BluePuddle that action would be Impeachment, but that's not polite, and they might say mean things to us, so ... Nah.
3. So, we get the Mueller report, and then the whole country goes on saying,
"He did this."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not."

Tucked away in this article is a highly significant revelation (no doubt made inadvertently) by two anonymous DOJ officials. 1/10 tinyurl.com/y696fjj7
I have argued for a long time that the question to ask about when the MUELLER REPORT will be submitted and released is not: “When will Mueller have ALL the evidence he could obtain?” 2/10
The appropriate question is: “When will #Mueller have ENOUGH evidence?”--that is, enough evidence for Congress to proceed with impeaching Trump and removing him from office and indicting people for campaign collusion. 3/10
