If not, no, I do not have a link. Try MSNBC and CNN.

I was hoping there would be a link to Mueller actually making this statement outright. That's all I was asking for.

Not Guilty/Acquittal/Insufficient Evidence is NOT EQUATABLE WITH INNOCENCE.

Innocence has NOTHING to do with the standards of judging criminal wrongdoing. So even when someone is found not guilty, etc., they aren't necessarily "innocent". They are neither guilty or innocent. Just "not guilty".

Trump is NOT NECESSARILY exonerated. He'd have to prove all the charges didn't happen and that's an impossible mission.

Not enough evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt. Surely, the actual report from Mueller will explain. We have only seen Barr's words. Not Mueller's report. Next fight, getting the full report!
