A review by mmazelli
The Mueller Report by The Washington Post
I’m privileged to live in a country where the powerful can still be investigated even if there is a law against indicting a sitting President, but we’ll leave that to the side. As such, I felt it was my civic obligation to read this report.
It is a slog of legalese, significant portions of which are highly redacted. Mueller was more than fair to Trump, specifically related to the obstruction of justice counts, giving him the benefit of the doubt where it was questionable to do so. It is up to Congress and future courts to hold Trump accountable, for the good of the Republic.
Spoiler: The report does not exonerate Trump!
