What we know:
Today, Attorney General Barr sent a letter he described as a summary of the report summited to him on Friday by Special Investigator, Robert Mueller.
Barr's letter was addressed to 4 members of Congress: Senator Lindsey Graham, Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary United States Senate; Representative Jerrold Nadler, Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary, United States House of Representatives; Senator Dianne Feinstein, Ranking Member, Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate; Representative Doug Collins, Ranking Member, Committee on the Judiciary, United States House of Representatives.

Finally, Barr does not suggest he will release the full report. Instead, he says, once Mueller himself has determined materials that should not be released because they will affect ongoing grand jury and other investigations, “I will be in a position to move forward expeditiously in determining what can be released in light of applicable law, regulations, and Departmental policies."
In other words, stay tuned, folks.
The fat lady in the White House may be singing otherwise, but there is more to come.
#ReleaseTheReport

Voices4America Post Script. Speaker Pelosi and Senator Schumer have already issued a statement on the Barr Summary.
Given Mr. Barr's public record of bias against the Special Counsel's inquiry, he is not a neutral observer and is not in a position to make objective determinations about the report," Pelosi and Schumer said in their statement. "And most obviously, for the president to say he is completely exonerated directly contradicts the words of Mr. Mueller and is not to be taken with any degree of credibility."
House Judiciary Chair Jerry Nadler (D-NY) said his committee would soon be issuing a call for Barr to testify in front of Congress about his conclusions.
To repeat, in other words, stay tuned, folks.
