My takeaways:
1) Mueller could *not* exonerate the President,
2) for obstructing an investigation into a hostile foreign power's interference in our election.
3) That interference was serious and sustained.
4) If Mueller could have cleared the President,
he would have.

5) DOJ guidelines prevent indictment of a *sitting* President.
6) Congress is the *constitutionally mandated* body to hold a *sitting* President accountable.
7) If Congress calls Mueller, he will not go beyond the report. (which still has value.)
