Yeah, But Bill Barr Disagrees
Trump would have been indicted for obstruction of justice in special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation if he wasn’t president, more than 370 former federal prosecutors argued in an open letter publish on Medium on Monday.
Not just one indictment, but several.
The Mueller report describes several acts that satisfy all of the elements for an obstruction charge: conduct that obstructed or attempted to obstruct the truth-finding process, as to which the evidence of corrupt intent and connection to pending proceedings is overwhelming. These include:
· The President’s efforts to fire Mueller and to falsify evidence about that effort;
· The President’s efforts to limit the scope of Mueller’s investigation to exclude his conduct; and
· The President’s efforts to prevent witnesses from cooperating with investigators probing him and his campaign.
Since it was posted this afternoon, more have signed and it’s up to 418.
I think we should elect a few of these guys to Congress.
