According to russian state-media, the Mueller-report just killed this whole Russiagate nonsense.

Chasticizing journalists for attacking Barr, while forgetting to mention that he misrepresented what's in the Mueller-report.

Criticizing the Mueller-report for not giving more evidence for russian hacking, while somehow forgetting to mention that secrets of intelligence-gathering are exactly the kind of information that Barr censored.

There is no obstruction of justice because Trump didn't fire Mueller and, anyways, Barr cleared Trump of obstruction of justice.

Oh my God, the Democrats are sooooo hysterical about all of this. Why can't they accept Barr's declaration that Trump is innocent? And you know that after demanding the full Mueller-report, Democrats will shift the goal-posts and demand the full Mueller-report. They are so desperate, it's pathetic!

Speaking of desperate... Now that the Mueller-report has proven that there was no collusion by failing to find an explicit contract between the Trump-campaign and the russian government, the media and the Democrats have switched gears and now it's all about obstruction of justice!!! Where did that even come from?

Oh, and Mueller never proved that the DNC was actually hacked. He's so unprofessional, he took the word of the US intelligence community and of an IT-security company for it. Never mind that there's this other group who has said that the DNC wasn't hacked!

Trump has tweeted "No collusion" and this warrants a news-article.

According to John Gentry, a former CIA analyst, the US intelligence community is full of left-leaning extremists. (He thinks that John Brennan and James Clapper are liberals.)

in that the report really just glosses over the whole fact of the Russian interference and treats it as a basic starting assumption. And nobody seems to care.

...for the eventual talking points of right-wing media outlets in the US. They need something, and they need it fast. You know right now they're furiously throwing anything and everything against the wall to see what sticks.
