1. If it weren't for the Office of Legal Counsel's memos stating a sitting president cannot be indicted, would you have charged Donald Trump with obstruction of justice?

2. Of the 11 instances of obstruction outlined in your report, how many do you believe meet the legal qualifications for indictable obstruction of justice and why? rantt.com/20-questions-c…
3. Is President Trump's statement that your report found "no collusion, no obstruction" accurate?

Why ask this: This should get Robert Mueller to say no, and get an answer on video that would directly contradict President Trump's lies.

4. Did your report exonerate President Trump?

Why ask this: Getting Mueller on the record, and on camera, echoing what he stated in his report about President Trump's lack of exoneration will be an excellent soundbite to fact-check President Trump's lies. rantt.com/20-questions-c…
5. Your report contained more than 100 pages of contacts between the Trump Campaign and Russian nationals, and states that the Trump Campaign was receptive to Russia's election help. Why didn't you charge the Trump campaign with a criminal conspiracy? rantt.com/20-questions-c…
6. Was your ability to effectively probe a potential criminal conspiracy between the Trump Camp and Russia impaired by Trump associates—including Bannon and Erik Prince—who used encrypted apps and deleted messages or those who lied to your investigators? rantt.com/20-questions-c…
7. Do you agree with Attorney General William Barr and former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein's decision to clear President Trump of obstruction of justice?
rantt.com/20-questions-c…
8. Did you intend for the Attorney General or Congress to make a determination on your findings?

Why ask this: Mueller's report: "Congress can permissibly criminalize certain obstructive conduct by the President.” His answer to this question will be key. rantt.com/20-questions-c…
9. In your May statement at the DOJ, you said: “The Constitution requires a process other than the criminal justice system to formally accuse a sitting president of wrongdoing." What would that process be?

Why ask this: To get Mueller to say “Impeachment"

10. [Read excerpt from Mueller report about Manafort giving Kilimnik polling data and discussing battleground states.] Why did former Campaign Chairman Paul Manafort give this briefing to suspected Russian Intelligence Operative Konstantin Kilimnik in 2016?rantt.com/20-questions-c…
11. What happened at the June 9, 2016, Trump Tower meeting between Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, Paul Manafort, and Russian operatives?

Why ask this: Important to have Mueller himself read the details of this meeting into the record on video. rantt.com/20-questions-c…
12. Your report details how the Trump Campaign strategized around Wikileaks releases of Clinton's stolen emails. Who was Trump speaking on the phone with in the Summer of 2016 when he was told "more releases of damaging information would be coming.” rantt.com/20-questions-c…
13. What happened on July 27, 2016, after Trump said: “Russia if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing”?

Why ask this: Get Mueller to say Trump asked Flynn to find the emails and Russia hacked Clinton's office. rantt.com/20-questions-c…
14. How many Trump Campaign officials shared Russian propaganda on social media and what are their names?

Why ask this: Get Mueller to name Brad Parscale, Kellyanne Conway, Michael Flynn, Donald Trump Jr., and Donald Trump himself. rantt.com/20-questions-c…
15. Why didn't you subpoena President Trump when he declined an in-person interview? rantt.com/20-questions-c…
16. AG William Barr claimed that the OLC memo did not factor into your prosecutorial decision even though it did. Barr claimed you found "no collusion" when you didn't investigate the concept of collusion. Do you believe Barr misrepresented your findings? rantt.com/20-questions-c…
17. Did Attorney General William Barr or then-Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein take any action to limit the scope of your investigation, impede its progress, or order it to be ended early?
rantt.com/20-questions-c…
18. Why didn't you probe President Trump's finances?

Why ask this: Donald Trump's alleged history of money laundering for Russian oligarchs has been widely documented. We need to know why Mueller didn’t probe this when looking at Trump’s Russia ties.
rantt.com/russian-oligar…
19. What happened to the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation into whether President Trump is a Russian asset? Will the American people ever see its findings? rantt.com/20-questions-c…
20. Do you believe the US government is adequately prepared for Russia’s interference in 2020?

Why ask this: With Trump and his allies downplaying the threat of election interference, and openly inviting more interference, this is a vital question. rantt.com/president-trum…
Well, those are my questions.

If @HouseDemocrats (@HouseJudiciary and @HouseIntel) want to most effectively highlight Robert Mueller's findings and counter the Trump Administration's lies, I hope they find time to ask a few of these.
