Read the Mueller report

Pardon the brevity; submitted via my mobile phone.

[Update (20190418_203255 UTC) --martyb]

I was listening to the radio while running an errand when I heard the Mueller Report had been released. The above link was the first that came up when I did a search. I quickly posted the story using my mobile phone to get it to the community as quickly as possible. Here are additional sources as well as the MD5SUM and resultant file sizes from downloading each. The CNN file has a different size from the others. A quick inspection suggests that it contains searchable text (presumably through OCR (Optical Character Recognition) processing) whereas the others contain images of each of the pages in the report.

    I presume that would also play a part, but what loyalties was Trump necessarily concerned about? Flynn and Manafort were fired, because it turns out their loyalty was not to Trump or America but was instead to foreign powers. The loyalty issue sort of disappeared when he was able to hire the classic party line advisors who while warmongers and corrupt in other ways, are loyal in so far as they would not undermine him to foreign powers. Past Republican presidents would heavily tap the National Review or the Weekly Standard, both pro-war neocon papers whose members would not work for Trump because he seemed too much a peacemaker when he was running and when he was transitioning. Trump hired a lot of generals, presumably because he likes generals, but because generals should be loyal to the US and to the office of the presidency.

    He is an egotistical bastard yes, but I think he hired who he had to hire. When he fired the lobbyists at the beginning he hired neocons, and he found them distasteful (in some situations) and fired them as well. Mattis got canned because he kept postponing the withdrawal from Syria and some soldiers on the ground told him that they felt we were not trying to withdraw. When you have people undermining you on stuff, all the time, for their own personal gain (or company gain) you are going to develop loyalty issues especially if you are already inclined.

    I re-examined my criticism of Obama and Hillary through this whole process and really thought about accusations and beliefs i held. When you are seeing something thats not there (the elephant in the room) and others are not seeing it, it is most likely the person seeing the elephant who is in the wrong. Delusions are additive and not subtractive. I think all of us, on all sides, fell into the right/left ratcheting of tensions that plays into the media's narrative to get clicks and views.
