We’ve learned today that AG Barr deliberately distorted significant portions of the #MuellerReport.
The #MuellerReport paints a disturbing picture of a president who has been weaving a web of deceit, lies and improper behavior and acting as if the law doesn’t apply to him.

Alabama’s new law is heartbreaking. Imprisoning doctors and punishing women over access to vital, legal medical care is a staggering violation of both basic morality and constitutional rights.
Every woman has the right to basic reproductive health care – yet Republicans have trampled over a long-standing constitutional right in their haste to push a radical anti-woman agenda.
This clear and intentional violation of the Constitution directly imperils the health of countless women, and cannot be allowed to stand.

.@SenateMajLdr McConnell’s declaration of “case closed” is a stunning act of political cynicism and a brazen violation of the oath we all take.
The Special Counsel report laid out eleven instances of the President’s obstruction, and left a raft of unanswered questions about coordination between the President’s campaign and Russia. These are not trivial or political questions – they go to the wellspring of our democracy.
On every issue that matters in people’s lives, the Administration and a complicit Republican Senate are waging an unprecedented, unwarranted, unconstitutional and utterly dangerous campaign of stonewalling.

Today, @SenSchumer & I had a constructive meeting with @realDonaldTrump agreeing on a big and bold initiative to build the infrastructure of America.
The purpose of the meeting was to find out the amount of investment the President was willing to agree to. We were pleased he suggested $2 trillion. We agreed to meet again in three weeks, at which time we will hear the President’s ideas for how he would pay for such a package.

THREAD ➡️ The #MuellerReport paints a devastating picture of a corrupt President who surrounded himself with criminals and obstructed justice at every opportunity.

But there's a key element missing from the report: its national security implications.
The #MuellerReport is clear that the FBI took note of the counter-intelligence implications, which were omitted from Mueller's draft. We don't have a public accounting of the national security risks of Trump associates' behavior.
The #MuellerReport's scope is narrow. It tells the story of Russia's systematic efforts to interfere in our election, as well as the extent of the Trump team's involvement, and explains Mueller's prosecutorial decisions—but it doesn't answer the following questions:

#MuellerReport No Collusion? Russian interference in 2016 election confirmed, but AG Barr's weasel words absolves the President of collusion via Wikileaks as "under applicable law, publication of this material would not be illegal unless the publisher was involved in the hacking"

AG Barr’s handling of the #MuellerReport has been regrettably partisan, including his slanted 3/24 summary letter, irresponsible testimony before Congress, & indefensible plan to spin the report in a press conference today—hours before he allows the public or Congress to see it.
This has resulted in a crisis of confidence in AG Barr’s independence & impartiality.

We believe the only way to begin restoring public trust in the handling of the Special Counsel’s investigation is for Mueller himself to provide public testimony in the House & Senate ASAP.
The American people deserve to hear the truth.

House Judiciary Committee unanimously (22-0) approves measure directing DOJ to give Congress all records on FBI obstruction of justice and counterintelligence probes against Trump #ReleaseTheFullReport #ReleaseTheFullMuellerReport uk.reuters.com/article/uk-usa…
When the full Mueller report finally becomes public (as it surely will, Barr's herculean efforts to suppress it notwithstanding), will journalists and pundits cover its contents as breathlessly as they have the Barr memo? #ReleaseTheFullMuellerReport

💥AG Barr's letter to Congress: "Robert Mueller has concluded his investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election and related matters…I may be in a position to advise of the Special Counsel’s principal conclusions as soon as this weekend” via @etuckerAP #MuellerReport
The #MuellerReport was skewed in Trump's favor from the start b/c Mueller can't indict Trump & he can't disclose non-indictable wrongdoing. Congress has taken up that broader universe of fact-finding. Notably, Trump hasn't provided a single document. Many investigations continue.
As I said from Mueller's 1st days, focusing solely on criminal conduct misses a whole host of unprecedented wrongdoing we don't even have vocabulary for let alone laws against. Trump campaign's conduct w/ Russia may not be indictable, but is wrong & threatens national security.

AG #Barr: "disgusted" by what he's discovered (so-far).
"in all my years, in all my life, I never would have thought [ ] be possible within the halls of these prestigious federal agencies."
Press conference coming?
They will claim political attack.
