Citing Mueller Report Remarks, Vermont GOP Dings Sanders on Burlington College

Since U.S. Attorney General William Barr released a four-page memo last week summarizing the work of former special counsel Robert Mueller, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has been demanding the release of Mueller's full findings.

“I don’t want a summary of the report,” Sanders said during a campaign rally in California. “I want the whole damn report, because nobody, especially this president, is above the law.”

Now the Vermont Republican Party is using those words against Sanders.

In a letter sent Sunday to his U.S. Senate office, party chair Deb Billado called on Sanders to "apply this same standard of transparency to yourself." She was referring to a long-running federal investigation of a Burlington College bank loan application made when the senator's wife, Jane O'Meara Sanders, served as president of the since-shuttered institution.

For the sake of transparency, this report should be released so that the American people can draw their own conclusions.

Pretty sure she brought a family member in at a six figure salary as well. It seems really clear from all that is out there that she was the driving force behind the failure.

We don’t need a report for that. We know it. The FBI conducted an investigation.

Anyone know who Sanders tax preparer was?
