Justice Department regulations. They don't usually release full report about investigations which didn't lead to prosecution.

barely an excuse let alone a justification but "becauze it's ze rules" is always convenient

Counter-question: if they did release a full multi-tome report, would you actually read it?

maybe
the web is vast someone would read it right?
and hopefully someone in their Congress would

I think the Democrats / Left are pushing for its full release because they didn't get the result they wanted and they want to have it so they can ignore the official conclusions and say that Trump is guilty anyway.

so the Dems want to ignore Barr's altered version & they want the unaltered version because they don't want the truth? awesome logic

so again what's your Government hiding?

It's becoming clear that smear campaigns are their go-to tactic when dealing with political opponents. They've been trying to smear Trump since 2016, they tried to smear Kavanaugh,

yeah man how dare they "smear" those in power (Government is sacred)

And a few hours later, oh. look:

The Critical Part of Mueller’s Report That Barr Didn’t Mention

Mueller’s full report has not been made available to the public yet, so it’s not clear whether it sets forth everything the special counsel’s office learned over the course of its nearly two-year investigation—including findings about conduct that was perhaps objectionable but not criminal—or whether it is more tailored and explains only Mueller’s prosecution and declination decisions. But national-security and intelligence experts tell me that Mueller’s decision not to charge Trump or his campaign team with a conspiracy is far from dispositive, and that the underlying evidence the special counsel amassed over two years could prove as useful as a conspiracy charge to understanding the full scope of Russia’s election interference in 2016.

Which is nothing but a long-winded way of saying that regardless of the report, we think he's gotta be guilty and we're going to keep at it.

Whitewater, and it kept ongoing with Ken Starr, and beyond.
I warned you 2 years ago you would not like it if dems acted like repubs, if they sunk to your level.
Get your diving suit on.

The report did not vindicate trump on obstruction, so looking into that is fair game, even the AG who got his job via writing a 17 page report on why a president cannot obstruct justice could not give him a free pass on that issue.
If keeping on after Clinton was ok, so is keeping after trump.

Which proves MG's point, both sides are flip sides of the same coin, playing games with politics that affects millions.

Someone's PC is showing

Jussie Smollett charges dropped, actor won't be prosecuted on charges he faked attack

In a shocking announcement Tuesday morning, the Cook County State’s Attorney’s office said it will not be prosecuting Jussie Smollett, who was previously accused of faking an anti-black, anti-gay hate crime in Chicago in order to drum up publicity for his role on the TV drama “Empire.”

Fox News has learned the judge granted a nolle pros, which essentially means that the case has been dropped and that he will no longer be prosecuted for the alleged crime.

There is no legitimate reason on the face of the earth this guy should not be prosecuted.

Reverse discrimination at its finest.

That's right. Innocent until proven guilty be damned

just like there's no reason the Trumps shouldn't be prosecuted (except for daddy being a billionaire & president that is)

Does the POTUS Immunity status safeguards the Pres from any further prosecution after his term is concluded?

Say, theoretically speaking, if Trump shoots someone on the 5th avenue will he get away with it?

[Annoyed]

That's not the case at all. They're just dropping the charges. Not even gonna have the trial.

[Annoyed]

Absolutely not. To both questions.

And what the hell does Trump have to do with Smollett? Or is this just another excuse for an ant-Trump rant?

[Chaka-Z0]

Absolutely not. To both questions.

Trump: "I Could Stand In the Middle Of Fifth Avenue And Shoot Somebody And I Wouldn't Lose Any Voters"

And what the hell does Trump have to do with Smollett? Or is this just another excuse for an ant-Trump rant?

It doesn't, was responding to Soul.

As for Smollett, there's obviously a missing piece in the puzzle if they dropped charges but didn't explain why.

[Annoyed]

Trump: "I Could Stand In the Middle Of Fifth Avenue And Shoot Somebody And I Wouldn't Lose Any Voters"

Maybe not. But he would definitely be incarcerated if convicted. He can't pardon himself from state level offenses, only federal, and I'm pretty sure that most states have laws against murder.

As for Smollett, there's obviously a missing piece in the puzzle if they dropped charges but didn't explain why.

The piece isn't missing. They are just being politically correct.

[jelgate]

I call BS on Annoyed. Just another conspiracy theory
