8:20Now PlayingAttorney General William Barr has the final copy of the Mueller Report, but so far no one outside of Trump’s inner circle has been allowed to see it. Other than a short, 4-page snippet from Barr, we don’t know exactly what’s in there, but that hasn’t stopped the victory laps, the cries of conspiracy, and the back-patters to declare that they were right all along. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what we know, and more importantly, what we don’t know about the Mueller Report.

So I'm not sure if anybody actually is aware of this, but on Friday evening, Robert Mueller actually submitted his final report to Attorney General William Barr. I'm being sarcastic of course, because everybody knows that this happened and apparently also everybody knows what's in that report in spite of not having seen it yet. Now we did on Sunday get a four page CliffsNotes version summary from Attorney General William bar where he said, hey, Donald Trump did not collude with Russia. That is what the Mueller investigation found. Also a, they weren't sure if he obstructed justice. We're going to go ahead and pump that and a do nothing about it. But nonetheless, we know for a fact William Barr, the attorney general has seen the report. There's probably a few other people in the Department of Justice who have seen the report. We know Robert Mueller has seen the report as well as obviously members of his team.
But beyond that, that's probably it. And yet in spite of that all over Twitter, conservatives, liberals, everybody was telling us something different about a report they haven't even seen. So let's start with what we do know from bars letter. First and foremost, he quoted Robert Mueller where he specifically said this, a report does not implicate Donald Trump and a crime, but it also does not exonerate him. Now, in spite of containing that phrase does not exonerate him. The word exonerate is exactly what Donald Trump used to describe the report. It exonerates me. Fox News is saying it exonerates him. Trump's followers are saying it exonerates him when it literally says the opposite. It says it does not exonerate him. That's one thing we do know. We do know that Robert Mueller says we couldn't put the pieces together for collusion. There's not enough evidence to say that yes, the Trump campaign worked with the Russian government to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election, at least according to bars summary, so we can go ahead and put that in though we know it column, we know Robert Mueller is not going to be issuing any further indictments.
We knew that Friday night there are no more sealed indictments. Indictment time is done, so we put that in the, we know it column. Now let's move over here to the, we don't know at column cause there's a lot over here and in spite of the, the number of things that we have over here and though we do not know this yet, I have seen far too many as I'm sure anybody who's been on social media far too many people say that, nope, I told you I was right all along. I knew this wasn't going to happen. Then you have other people saying, no, this is a big conspiracy, raw William Mars covering it all up. We don't know the truth. He obviously didn't collude. Everything's awful. There's some kind of thing happening and we're going to subpoena, we're going to get the documents, we're going to have big hearings about it and we're going to continue to draw out this drama for another two years if we have to.
