Ostensibly saying nothing that wasn't in his 450-page report on Trump and Russia, he did suggest a lot, according to Dana Milbank in the Post today.
Mainly, Mueller in effect called on Congress to proceed promptly on impeachment. Admitting that DOJ rules prevented him from pondering whether to indict Trumpsky, he nonetheless "INVITED THE BELIEF [my caps] that he didn't charge Trump ONLY because he couldn't."
Mueller "rebuked a president who constantly, maddeningly, refers to Putin's interference in the 2016 election as 'the Russia hoax.'"
He practically begged the American public to DO SOMETHING about that outrageous interference -- getting "their political leaders...[to] soberly weigh [Mueller's] evidence that Trump obstructed his investigation."
"Instead, Trump laughs about the whole thing with Putin [while] Repubs quash bipartisan efforts to protect the 2020 elections from another attack..."
Please, readers, let me, Justine, paraphase Congressman Justin Amash (RMich), the ONLY Repub. lawmaker calling for impeachment -- Mueller having done what he could, the fucking ball is now in OUR court.
Impeach the bastard NOW!
