    Any hate you're perceiving from her is just her returning the bile that Fox has been throwing at her. They have been mocking her and her (quite popular) platform ever since she won her election. Fox thrives off of generating hate - to the point of crying over Obama's dijon mustard and War on Christmas. It's about time Dems start calling Fox out by name.
    Oh boy another accusation that I'm a fox news Trump supporter...these never get old.

    Pretend what? I defend Trump on a bunch of attacks, but I didn't vote for him. I don't support him. I don't even like him.

    You can't just dismiss me because you don't like it...

    I agree, but theres still a lot of legal wiggleroom. Consider this sentence from Barr's letter to congress

    As the report states: "[T]he investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities."
    As you probably know, the capital T in brackets indicates it wasn't the first word in the sentence. Why not include what came before it?

    The first underlined part raises the question, did anyone from the Trump campaign coordinate with any Russians outside of the Russian government, but with ties to Russian governement? Looking at you, Konstantin Kilimnik.

    The 2nd underlined part; did someone from the Trump campaign coordinate with anyone with ties to the Russian govt on any other matters, such as the timing of the release of stolen documents?

    Obviously Barr is an inteligent and experienced lawyer. He's going to choose his words carefully. Like you said, we simply won't know until and unless we can see the entire repot.

    Tax returns? Yes. He said he is willing to go to the Supreme Court to keep them hidden.

    Now why would someone go to such lengths to do something like that?

    And it still made money. Making this argument over and over, doesn't mean shit when Manafort alone had $46 million worth of assets seized. That and you didn't say shit about the Email and Benghazi investigations that cost more than that and got no one.

    I hope this type of behavior is only experienced on some very limited american elite bubbles and\or with some online personas.
    Because this is how the USA gets a second Trump term.

    The only things mods count as conspiracy theories is stuff like flat earth and moon landing denial. We've been told that everything else is "a valid political opinion."

    Probably because Trump told him to. Because he knows that Barr's assessment is bullshit and that Congress would prosecute for obstruction of justice because we know he did that, several times. That is about the only excuses that are valid.

    And again, as it was a criminal investigation, all we know is that the evidence didn't rise to "beyond a reasonable doubt," about coordinating specifically with official members of the russian govt. We don't know what standards of proof short of that were met.

    I just can't see how it would benefit him politically at all. At least if he let the full report out or feigned "support" for it he could save some face. This just makes things very very suspicious from my simple minded point of view.

    There is a reason that Trump was quiet all weekend about being faux exonerated by Barr. Because he knows that he is in trouble if the whole thing is released.
