Barr told the Senate back in June 2018 that Mueller's obstruction theory was complete CRAP and telegraphed the final decision just reached - KEK

Key summary

 

Mueller is proposing an unprecedented expansion of obstruction laws so as to reach facially-lawful actions taken by the President in exercising the discretion vested in him by the Constitution.

 

It appears Mueller is relying on 18 U.S.C. §1512, which generally prohibits acts undermining the integrity of evidence or preventing its production.

 

Section 1512 is relevant here because, unlike other obstruction statutes, it does not require that a proceeding be actually “pending” at the time of an obstruction, but only that a defendant have in mind an anticipated proceeding.

 

Because there were seemingly no relevant proceedings pending when the President allegedly engaged in the alleged obstruction.

 

While these controversies have heretofore been waged largely on the field of political combat, Mueller’s sweeping obstruction theory would now open the way for the “criminalization” of these disputes.

 

Predictably, challenges to the Department's decisions will be accompanied by claims that the Attorney General, or other supervisory officials, are “obstructing” justice because their directions are improperly motivated.

 

Whenever the slightest colorable claim of a possible “improper motive” is advanced, there will be calls for a criminal investigation into possible “obstruction.”

 

The prospect of being accused of criminal conduct, and possibly being investigated for such, would inevitably cause officials “to shrink” from making potentially controversial decisions.

key summary

 

In the face of such a pervasive popular culture, mass media, and

powerful state that sees itself as a secular institution alleviating the consequences of misconduct and often promoting moral relativism, how canwe be confident that the pendulum will swing back? In a sense, I have

painted a very bleak but realistic picture. The real message is that we

are going to have to do more than joust around the margins. We must reenter the fray in an effective way; take the battlefield and enter the

struggle, rather than just retire in good order. The key is a return to

basics-in a sense, to reassemble the flock…
