And yet while we were keeping the Russians under surveillance, Trump's campaign people kept showing up and making calls and meeting with the Russians, etc.
You need to lay off the Kool-Aid.

From the start of the investigation, Mueller had already decided that he would not accuse the president of committing any crimes, even if there was ample evidence of a crime. FROM THE VERY START. He did this because of policy and his professional ethics. HE DID NOT!!! Barr specifically asked him if the rule against indicting a sitting President had anything to do with the conclusions of his report and he said NO. Then tried to take it back but then corrected that attempt too. Such a position would have made such an investigation ridiculous. The point was to IDENTIFY CRIMES HE COULD BE CHARGED WITH IF THERE WERE ANY. NONE WERE FOUND.

But a ton of collusion was. Collusion is not defined as a crime, but it is still impeachable. Especially the pattern of rampant collusion that was found.

That is a bullshirt liie and you know it! By repeating a liie that you know to be a liie, you are deliberately lyeing to us!
The Trump campaigns many contacts with the Russians are instances of collusion. To keep this short, here's that portion of the table of contents of the Mueller Report, which BTW we have shown to you before:
quote: That is over 100 pages of the Mueller Report dealing with the Trump campaign's collusion with the Russians.

THERE WAS NO COLLUSION FOUND AND THE MUELLER REPORT SAID SO.
There are always legitimate or simply innocent contacts between American politicians and Russians or any other foreign representatives. If any on your list amounted to "collusion" the Mueller Report would have said so but it specifically concluded that they found none. Just because YOU erroneously think there was collusion does not make ME a liar for believing there was none. Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

THERE WAS NO COLLUSION FOUND AND THE MUELLER REPORT SAID SO. Where does it say that? SHOW US! If any on your list amounted to "collusion" the Mueller Report would have said so but it specifically concluded that they found none. Oh, specifically it said that, you claim. Fine, then you should have no problem at all showing us precisely where the Mueller Report "specifically concluded that they found [no collusion]". So then show us where the Mueller Report is supposed to have stated that "specific conclusion". Give us the page number (look at the text, not at the page number of the PDF, or if you use the PDF page number then explicitly state that that is what you are doing). Quote that text to us. You have made a claim, so support it! IOW, what are the facts? You know what facts are, those pesky things that you hate so much because they keep proving your crazzy claims wrong. If you have facts to support your claim, then present them! If you don't have any such facts, then admit it! HINT: the right-wingnut bullshirt liies told you by the Fake News Network and its accomplices do not count as facts.
SUPPORT YOUR CLAIM! You've never done it before, so I have no doubt that you will not do it here.
Just because YOU erroneously think there was collusion does not make ME a liar for believing there was none. The evidence in the Mueller Report quite clearly shows rampant collusion. So far, your claim of "no collusion" (now elevated to "specifically concluded that they found none") has had zero evidence to support it. Furthermore, the existence of our evidence and your lack of evidence has been demonstrated to you repeatedly such that there is no way that you could possibly not realize that. So you are repeating those bullshirt right-wingnut liies knowing full well that they have nothing to support them. Knowingly repeating liies that you know to be liies is lyeing.
PS Your persistent practice of completely ignoring the facts (especially the ones presented to you) is not an excuse. If anything, it only condemns you all the more. Edited by dwise1, : additional qs Edited by dwise1, : PS

It's the gist of the report, perhaps not stated in so many words but Barr's summary of the main points said it found no evidence of collusion, and here's the American Bar Association saying the same thing.
You are trying to turn innocuous contacts into collusion. There was no collusion. Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

Except that it's the gist of the report that there was tons of collusion, just that they could not find the evidence to prove conspiracy and co-ordination. Plus, it is well known that Barr misrepresented the Mueller Report and that Mueller wrote a letter to Barr complaining how Barr misrepresented the report in such a way as to mislead the public.
NPR CNN Wikipedia (Wikipedia page includes a PDF of Mueller's letter to Barr): quote: Clearly, Barr's letter (which, contrary to your characterization of it here, even Barr said was not a summary) is not a reliable source for determining what the Mueller Report says. The only reliable source for such a determination is the Mueller Report itself. The Mueller Report shows clear evidence of collusion. Besides pages of instances listed in the table of contents (see Message 2886 again, which I'm certain you chose to not read or even look at) let's look at the specific case of Manafort giving the Russians campaign data while working on the Trump campaign -- such data can be used to help the Russians target demographics in their attack, though the investigations not able to establish just exactly how the data was used. From the Mueller Report, pages 129-131:
quote: There is nothing in Manafort's actions that could remotely be considered "innocuous". That was collusion at the very least, and very likely much more. And that was just one instance out of a hundred in the report.
, and here's the American Bar Association saying the same thing. Uh, have you even bothered to read that article? All it says about collusion, indeed the only mention of that word (or any form of it) occurs only twice: first in the article's title and second at the end when it directly quotes Trump's false claim of "complete and total exoneration".
Nowhere in the article does the author ever attempt to support the title's claim of "Mueller finds no collusion with Russia". It does mention the question of co-ordination and conspiracy, which are a different question from collusion, albeit related. To engage in a conspiracy and to co-ordinate, there must be some kind of explicit agreement between the parties involved. In order to prosecute a case of conspiracy and co-ordination, you must be able to obtain evidence of such an explicit agreement. The Mueller reported that they could not find that evidence, but such a finding can be very difficult to find in most cases of conspiracy. And none of that addresses the question of collusion. Furthermore, the article's major source was the Barr letter, not the Mueller Report itself. We already know that the Barr letter is not a reliable source, since it misrepresented the Mueller Report's findings. For that matter, when was that article written? I can find no date for it. There were weeks of delay between the Barr letter and the release of the redacted report. If the report had already been released, then why didn't the article reference it? Why would the article restrict itself to the Barr letter? An obvious assumption would be that the article was written before the release of the Mueller Report and hence the author could not have had any knowledge of what the Mueller Report actually said. That article does not support your claim. Again, in Message 2887 you stated:
Faith writes: If any on your list amounted to "collusion" the Mueller Report would have said so but it specifically concluded that they found none. You have been called upon to support your claim of "... but it specifically concluded that they found none." Your claim that the Mueller Report "specifically concluded" that there was no collusion. You have failed to support your claim. You must support it! You must quote the Mueller Report where it is supposed to have said what you claim, along with the page number (a trivial requirement to meet when you are copying the quote).

Except that it's the gist of the report that there was tons of collusion, just that they could not find the evidence to prove conspiracy and co-ordination. \ Screaming nonsense. That's the same thing as saying THEY FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF COLLUSION, which is the same thing as EXONERATING TRUMP. This is nothing but word twisting. And there is NO reason at all to doubt Barr's reading of the report and presentation of its main points.
Plus, it is well known that Barr misrepresented the Mueller Report and that Mueller wrote a letter to Barr complaining how Barr misrepresented the report in such a way as to mislead the public. It is "well known" that the Left has made all this up to discredit Barr for partisan reasons. He honestly reported what the report reported. And Mueller's letter complained about how the MEDIA were reacting to Barr's report because like all the rest of the Left they had not expected Trump to be exonerated and they were beside themselves that the report exonerated him. Mueller did NOT say Barr misrepresented the report, I believe he even explicitly said he did not.. He did not, he did not he did not. He said the MEDIA were reacting in a way that bothered him. If I can find all this I will. Mueller wanted like all those he had chosen to do this investigation to find Trump guilty of criminal wrongdoings and it put him in an uncomfortable position when he could not. So he tried to be honest about that fact for the sake of his reputation, which produced the truth that Barr extracted, while nevertheless larding the report with innuendo that the Left might be able to twist into something other than the truth in order to fit their false narrative about Trump's misbehavior. The duplicity seems to have succeeded. The Mueller report like all the Left's shenanigans since Trump was elected is a masterpiece of fraud and deceit based on ambiguity and innuendo. What they are doing with this phone call with the Ukrainian President is just another example. They will twist words until they say what they WANT them to say. Trump is notoriously not precise in his communications, which gives a lot of us a headache, so unfortunately his words are twistable if one has a mind to do that. But they ARE TWISTED BY THE HOUSE GANG, they misrepresent him. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

As I believe I explained, the Mueller report told the truth in spite of itself, but in such a way that it promoted Leftist shenanigans for those who prefer it to the truth.
