I read the text of the letter and it said there's no sealed indictments not yet disclosed.

Which means that the last gasp (hope) of the leftists died here 'cause there were some here that were going "but there could be sealed indictments waiting for Trump".

Of course, there's always SDNY but that's something that will come into play whenever he leaves office whether it's in 2020 or 2024.
 
Not true. You didn't read the letter. There's something that says otherwise in there in Barr's words.
I made a mistake in my quoting, those were Glen's words, not mine. Mine was only the last sentence.
 
No, he said, “Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and I have concluded that the evidence developed during the Special Counsel's investigation is not sufficient to establish that the President committed an obstruction-of-justice offense.”

...which is not at odds with his other statements. One statement says that Mueller's report did not exonerate Trump of obstruction, that it showed evidence on both sides of that question. That's not his decision or his opinion. Then he said that his office has chosen to not pursue the matter. That is a decision, based on his opinion.
 
A bet is a bet. I don't think Polish Headlock would have taken the high road if he won. It would be a nice gesture though.
I never thought of the idea of being able to show mercy...I like this twist. Go Michael Scott and have Dwight do your laundry forever.

What makes you think that what the SDNY finds that it will have to wait till Trump leaves office?

I think the probe was illegal from the get-go but I also understood that this isn't the real world we are looking at here : It's Politics.

I would love to hear why you think the probe was illegal from the get-go.

Because you can't indict a sitting president? {<shrug}

Or has that changed just now...

No, he said there wasn’t sufficient evidence to show obstruction occurred. Not that he was just going to, “not pursue the matter.”
 
I'll give you the same answer that Dems give when they still believe Trump colluded with Russia :

"Because I just do. " <BirdieOwn>

I don’t think anyone believed it because they “just do” but rather more because of shit like this, given the context:



On what basis could the probe be considered illegal?
 
btw, to anyone suggesting Mueller punted...that's not what this letter said.

It says that Barr says it's up to Barr to make a decision that Mueller left open.
