      Mueller rejected the Trump team's argument that a president cannot possibly illegally obstruct a DOJ investigation: "Article II of the Constitution does not categorically and permanently immunize the President from potential liability for the conduct that we investigated."

      The Mueller report includes a lengthy analysis on this question, which Mueller acknowledges has not been "definitively resolved."https://twitter.com/ddale8/status/1118906949192515584 …

      Am I misreading this, or does this imply that Mueller did in fact consider the OLC opinion in his decision not to reach prosecutorial conclusions? pic.twitter.com/IY7oBixaRK

      A lot of redactions in the Contacts with the Campaign about WikiLeaks section. It does say Gates said, after WikiLeaks began releasing docs, Trump told him there was more coming, and the campaign planned a "communications campaign" around possible releases of Clinton emails.pic.twitter.com/7NBoXCkzx1

      Here's a fuller quote on the conspiracy issue: "The investigation examined whether these contacts involved or resulted in coordination or a conspiracy with the Trump Campaign and Russia...Based on the available information, the investigation did not establish such coordination."pic.twitter.com/vipJ1QUHY9

          In Trump's submission, he said his request for Russia to obtain Clinton emails was "in jest and sarcastically, as was apparent to any objective observer"...yet Mueller reports that Trump repeatedly asked people affiliated with his own campaign to find the emails, and they tried.pic.twitter.com/e1bz9p9252

          Mueller says Kushner texted "waste of time" during the Trump Tower meeting, then asked his assistants to call him as an excuse to leave; Don Jr. said nothing could be done about the Magnitsky Act while Trump was a mere candidate but that they could revisit the issue if Trump won.pic.twitter.com/Pxqjs3Bo44

          Mueller says Manafort had Gates provide internal campaign polling to Konstantin Kilimnik, a longtime employee the FBI says has ties to Russian intelligence. Mueller says he "could not reliably determine Manafort's purpose" in doing so.

          Mueller also says Manafort "also twice met Kilimnik in the United States during the campaign and conveyed campaign information." The second meeting, in Aug. 2016, was to get Manafort a message from former Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych about his "peace plan."pic.twitter.com/Q9Hcq6kfXV

          Mueller: Manafort said it was Viktor Yanukovych, not Oleg Deripaska, who was "the guy who gave you your biggest black caviar jar"...and that there was an actual big black jar of caviar. Lots of media reports assumed this was a reference to Deripaska.pic.twitter.com/7t4qFzXC3R

          Mueller: Though phone provider records show that Steve Bannon and Erik Prince "exchanged dozens" of text messages around the time of the Seychelles meeting, there were no messages available for investigators to read on their phones. Both men said they didn't know why that was.pic.twitter.com/jCVDKBkIIB

          Mueller went into detail about his reasoning for not laying charges over the Trump Tower meeting. He considered them under a law that prohibits foreign campaign contributions and forbids Americans to "solicit, accept, or receive" from them any money or "thing of value."

          Mueller explained explicitly that they were investigating whether there were violations of conspiracy law, not investigating "collusion." Barr kept using the word "collusion" anyway.pic.twitter.com/X88vxY13pT
