This weekend, while many Americans were busy enjoying spring-like weather with their families, General William Barr released his summary of the “principal conclusions reached by the Special Counsel and the results of his investigation.”
And it contained some great news for our nation. Here’s the key quote:
“The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.”
Got that? Did not. I just want to emphasize it, because I know there are liberal pundits who feel like Christmas has been canceled.
As National Review wrote, “This is unambiguously good news. If you doubt this, consider the alternative. Just imagine the bomb that would detonate in the American body politic if we discovered through this investigation that a sitting president worked with a hostile government (arguably our chief geopolitical foe) to try to tip the balance in a close election.”
Of course, most of us weren’t worried about this at all. Most of us are concerned about the direction of this country, not about the legitimacy of the 2016 election.
Already today, MSNBC’s Joy Reid said that “it feels like the seeds of a cover-up are here.”
Good grief. These people cannot be placated. Making comments like this on television (does anyone actually watch MSNBC?) is super shallow and dangerous. There is precisely zero evidence of a cover-up.
Mueller’s investigation was thorough and fair. Let’s move on.
