CNN is reporting that Mueller's report may be delivered to Barr as early as next week.

It will be confidential, Barr will review, then submit the info he decides should be made public to Congress.

Derogatory information about uncharged individuals will probably not be revealed.

This will coincide with Trump's overseas trip.

I think maybe a PART of the report may be delivered...the obstruction part, maybe. But no way Mueller is done with the whole thing.

2. Didn't Mueller get a six month extension a few weeks ago?

This is the millionth "Mueller's investigation is almost done" story we've heard in the past couple years.

6. Mueller doesn't have a deadline, but his grand jury got "up to" a six-month extension

Grand juries are generally seated for 18 months, but they can get up to a six-month extension. That's what happened in January.

9. Whenever a final report is issued, a simultaneous release to Congress and the media is needed.

Also, nothing should be redacted unless it endangers a secret intelligence source. The American people have a right to know.

I do not trust Barr to do anything but destroy or ignore the report.

10. This is a ratfucking. Barr is killing the investigation to protect trump

There is NO way that Mueller ends the investigation without indicting Trump Jr unless he’s ordered to. If that happens then we know it was killed by Barr.

I’m also very concerned that Trump is going to get involved in Venezuela militarily to distract from the report.

14. I think it's very possible that not every we want to be indicted, will actually be indicted.

I don't like it, but it's a possibility.

16. Who says he won't be indicted? Always thought explosive indictments would be at the end.

Indictments of Trump family members, or indictments of anybody that list Trump as an unindicted co-conspirator, most likely would cause Trump to explode and fire Mueller, et al, so those indictments were expected by many to be at the end.
