My thoughts for today, and those of a friend:Mueller is too much of a boy scout and there is a DOJ

directive that says that DOJ cannot indict a sitting president, any sitting president. I did not expect an indictment.

I expected what happened today... nothing more, or less. As to collusion, how do you prove what does not exist in law? However, CONSPIRACY has a very high bar to be proven. And the people NOT charged, are quite experienced at avoiding charges.

The report did not exonerate Trump.

Then they should give all the evidence to the House, which decides on impeachment. If impeachment is the only was, the House is the only "law enforcement" on the POTUS, who is not above the law. It should all go unredacted to the House.
