While the liberal media goes bananas over this nothing burger story over Robert Mueller’s letter to Attorney General Barr about the media reaction to his report on Trump-Russia collusion, let’s be reminded that this is a non-story. No, Barr didn’t lie about the report. Also, when did Democrats start to doubt the veracity of the Mueller report? That’s what’s at the hear of this tantrum that was thrown prior to Barr’s hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee because Mueller was simply upset with how the media was reporting on his $30+ million witch-hunt. The two men discussed this matter as well over the phone, according to The Washington Post. And this is where the most important sentence was buried: “When Barr pressed Mueller on whether he thought Barr’s memo to Congress was inaccurate, Mueller said he did not but felt that the media coverage of it was misinterpreting the investigation, officials said.”
So, nothing changed. There’s still no evidence of Russian collusion. Trump is still president. The liberal media still ate it for peddling a myth for two years. And the Left still lost. We still won. Period. If there are two reporters that veer to the Left that haven’t drunk the Kool-aid on the Russia nonsense, it’s The Intercept’s Glenn Greenwald and Michael Tracey, formerly of the Young Turks. Yes, you will probably disagree with them, but on this—they’re spot on concerning the media’s integrity possibly being irreparably damaged with this Russian collusion fiasco and the level of insanity that has grown on the Left because of it.
Barr-gate might be the stupidest-gate, and there have been too many stupid-gates to count

If you're even passingly familiar with how Trump/Russia "bombshell" news cycles have worked for the past three years, you'd know that media idiots melodramatically lose their minds for about 24 hours, then the entire thing fizzles and everybody moves on to the next fake outrage

David Simon, who I'll refrain from describing as a "fuckmook," apparently didn't read last night's Washington Post story. If he did, he would have seen that Mueller affirmed the accuracy of Barr's March 24 letter. He was complaining about media coverage https://t.co/m8A4wmnvAj

The delusional maniacs who run the US media are convinced (wrongly) for the 10 millionth time that they were #actually right all along about the Trump/Russia conspiracy. This will never go away. They are moving toward impeachment. We are trapped in this nightmare forever

How could a 4 page letter "fully capture the context, nature, and substance" of a 400+ page report? What the hell is wrong with you people?

It's like those who couldn't believe Hillary really lost to Trump & kept waiting for people to come & make it right (ie the Electoral College coup). They can't believe Mueller concluded no evidence establishes Trump/Russia conspiracy so they'll cling to anything that reverses it: https://t.co/3iT9i0DYPt

This is still what the Mueller Report concluded. This was what it said yesterday and it's what it will say tomorrow. And this reality will never change. pic.twitter.com/EZvJGPKs4r

I'm sure everyone would have been fine with Barr not saying anything about the substance of the Report between March 22 when it was submitted and April 18 when it was released. No: he had to tell the public its key findings. And that's what he did. Accurately, per Mueller

“The delusional maniacs who run the US media are convinced (wrongly) for the 10 millionth time that they were actually right all along about the Trump/Russia conspiracy,” wrote Tracey on Twitter. “This will never go away.

“It's like those who couldn't believe Hillary really lost to Trump and kept waiting for people to come & make it right…they can't believe Mueller concluded no evidence establishes Trump/Russia conspiracy so they'll cling to anything that reverses it,” replied Greenwald.
Is it a nightmare? I’m okay with the Democrat-media complex continuing to reach full froth over this conspiracy theory. Keep it coming. It’s only one massive in-kind contribution to the Trump re-election campaign.
