One Take On Mueller Report

For John, BLUF:  Not every Progressive is drinking from the same polluted Russiagate pool.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Glenn Greenwald on the Mueller Probe

The Mueller investigation is complete and this is a simple fact that will never go away:  not one single American was charged, indicted or convicted for conspiring with Russia to influence the 2016 election - not even a low-level volunteer.  The number is zero.

Compare what cable hosts (let's leave them unnamed) & Democratic operatives spent two years claiming this would lead to - the imprisonment of Don, Jr., Jared, even Trump on conspiracy-with-Russia charges - to what it actually produced.  A huge media reckoning is owed.

Maybe this 17 February 2019 article by Professor Victor Davis Hanson, from American Greatness, sums up what happened:  "Autopsy of a Dead Coup".

I just listened to CNN give its headlines at 0830 and there is apparently no self-recognition of the fact that the basis of the probe, the Trump Campaign collusion with Russia, didn't pan out.  If we spin it to Russian meddling in US elections, then that is older than I am and is not Trump specific.  It was time for some humility, but it was "Orange Man Bad" the whole way.  Sad.  Very sad.
