-Original statement
If something is false say so. I can think of instances where something is factually true but inaccurate. I am not going to get over my skis either way.

(32,030 posts)Mueller has been almost totally silent for this entire investigation. The fact that he felt the need to say something about this "report" says something.

(3,344 posts)We'll just have to wait and see what happens.
But I'm getting tired of waiting for Mueller. Indictments need to come soon!

Just what it means is unclear at the moment.

(812 posts)This gives the trump supporters, Faux news et al a fig leaf or a straw (choose your metaphor) to call into question the ENTIRE set of investigations.
Inaccurate reporting is inexcusable especially when slapped in the face or butt (choose your anatomy) so fast.

(41,987 posts)Some statements? All of them? False? Not exact? Its impossible to tell.
Its not hard to imagine how hell use it though.
Stay the course. Just stay the course.

(27 posts)No disrespect to Mueller, but if hes sitting on evidence confirming Trump has committed numerous impeachable criminal offenses, including conspiracy to interfere in national elections and/or is current threat to national security, at what point does he have an obligation to inform of THAT?
This one clarification is not helpful in that context. If thats not accurate, then wtf is? The nation may be in peril and we have no idea. Trump wants to leave NATO ffs.
Im glad Cohen is appearing, but again, subject to Muellers censoring of information that the nation may NEED to know.

(14,319 posts)Many of us here are torn. Of course we want to ITMFA, but we also realize that in practical terms we get one shot and one shot only. The case to impeach must be airtight and overwhelming, so much so that even this Senate would have to convict; otherwise the consequences of a reinvigorated Trump could be catastrophic even more so than what we see now. So Im inclined to give him some more time, but ... tick tock.
A lot is riding on Muellers professionalism and impartiality, including whether we still have a country when all this is done or we descend into civil war. I wish that were only hyperbole.
