      It means that he is in a position to give his findings to Barr--and through Barr, to the Congress and the public.

      Yes, there is a question about whether Barr will allow the transmission, but a precondition for that to happen is that Mueller finishes the investigation and reports his findings.

      So it is in no sense a bad thing it Mueller is now finished. It is a moment we have been waiting for for the better part of two years--a moment we had good reason to worry would never come.

      It is a moment we should all welcome, whether we believe the president friend or fiend, whether we believe that there was "NO COLLUSION!" or whether we believe the president conspired with a foreign power.

      An investigation is not a permanent state of affairs. It is an effort to answer questions.

      I confess I am perplexed by how it can be over with so many apparently open threads--a subject I addressed today with @SykesCharlie on @BulwarkOnline podcast:https://www.stitcher.com/s?eid=58900763&autoplay=1 …

      That said, I trust Bob Mueller. I trust his staff. I trust the FBI personnel who conducted the investigation. And if they are comfortable referring ongoing matters back to DOJ, then I am comfortable with it too.

      And if Mueller is ready to tell us he is done, I have not a shred of interest in the investigation's being prolonged a day longer than it needs to.

      We may or may not have a fight on our hands to find out what Mueller has concluded. I'm happy for that to be the fight. It means that Mueller has apparently gotten to finish his probe to his satisfaction. That's a huge win. And we should pause a moment to value it.

      What makes you so confident this report is on Mueller’s terms and timetable?

          I perplexed why some place such great weight on Mueller & Barr’s friendship as sign that Barr will do right by Mueller’s work. Look at how many friendships have unraveled already, or look at McCain and Graham for an example of friendship failing as an ethical compass.

          My guess is they already had copies of the relevant material from other sources and simply had to match it against the equipment seized from Stone.

          The wrapping up of the Mueller investigation within days of the new AG taking over seems to be quite a “coincidence,” to say the least.

          Which is 1 reason I think it might just be that Barr asked for a status report, which would make some sense with Barr just coming in, and then it was misreported as indicating Mueller will be done because "Mueller's report" is coming.

          Thank you for asking this question! We deserve to know the answer. In addition, I'm not willing to trust that something nefarious isn't going on here. We've been told Barr is a "by-the-books" kind of guy but his past does NOT bear that out (ex. Iran-Contra pardons!).

          Please go on tv and talk about this and If you can give us assurances that you will find out what is going on. I'm so worried that Barr has shut it down. This after a week on the job. I don't believe in coincidences.
