This is from a friend of a friend, cuz they knew that was over your head....

And a friend gives an even briefer version of McQuade's translation for those whose attention span is short:

Barbara McQuade, former United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan, acts as anger translator for Robert Mueller.

Translation:

It’s about Russia, stupid! You don’t need me to testify if you will just read the damn report!

This was a military attack by a hostile foreign adversary. This was not a hoax! We need to take action to prevent it from happening again instead of worrying about whether that conclusion diminishes the legitimacy of Donald Trump’s electoral victory.

You can be guilty of obstruction even when no underlying crime is established. Stop saying there can be no cover-up if there was no crime to cover up.

[Due to OLC rules] charging the president with a crime was therefore not an option we could consider.

Obstruction is a big deal. We did not clear the president of obstruction, but we did not think we could charge a president. You know who can? Congress! So we preserved the evidence for Congress to consider impeachment.

This was a fair investigation by honorable people, so knock off all the talk about a coup.
