Seems calm and stable.

The New York Times had no legitimate sources, which would be totally illegal, concerning the Mueller Report. In fact, they probably had no sources at all! They are a Fake News paper who have already been forced to apologize for their incorrect and very bad reporting on me!

Appears authentic to me.

Well tell Barr to get the full unredacted report out, so we can just clear your good name.

So why panic? The supposed leaks will be shown as complete lies when the full report is available to the public. The New York Times will be so embarrassed. Win-win.

Notice the time lag between the reporting breaking, and his angry tweet. Did no one talk about it on Fox while he was watching, or did he have to wait for someone to read the story to him before he responded?

Don, does it ever feel like the walls are closing in on you? That isn’t paranoia. That’s karma.

Further reports say Mueller’s team had prepared summaries suitable for immediate release.
Just as you would expect

Trump wants his cake and wants to eat it, too.

Greedy, greedy.

A spokeswoman for the New York Times told PolitiFact: “We’re incredibly proud of our coverage of the 2016 campaign. There was no suggestion either in our note to staff, or the note to subscribers, that we were apologizing.”

Attacking those who tell the truth — a Trump regime specialty.

The irony/beauty of this is that Mueller’s team was comprised of NON-Dept of Justice employees. Now that they have “disbanded” and they have returned to their day jobs, they are not prevented from talking about the investigation (so long as they don’t reveal classified or grand jury info of course). Trump can’t do anything about it. Hence his obvious panic…

LOL. Trump is such a coward.

Hiding in his “safe room,” on the toilet, where no one can respond directly, flailing away with his fat, short thumbs, hurling insults.

You know leaks actually were illegal? The ones from the DNC that you used to win the electoral college. So, how 'bouts you shut the fuck up?

EDIT: per @Lacuna-Synecdoche, “The leaks from Trump investigators are likely not illegal…as long as no grand jury testimony or classified info is revealed.” I edited my original post to rephrase “other leaks.”

The NYT story sources were not the Mueller team, but “government officials and others familiar with their [i.e., the team’s] simmering frustrations.” Then DOJ spokesperson Kerri Kupec pushes back against the story. Then Trump tweets about it.

All three of these voices are from the same GOP Executive branch. It is Kabuki theater. They are putting on a show, pretending that disputes within the Mueller team, or Barr’s concerns about politicizing the process, are the issues. The goal is distracting from what’s actually going on, which is that AG Barr is continuing the obstruction and coverup that Mueller reported on.

That a guy who has been obstructing justice his whole life wouldn’t hire an AG that gives him cover is a strains credulity. Sessions was hired before the investigation. Trump thought he’d be guy but Sessions still had some pride and recused freaking Trump out . He thought he had his guy in Barr but now it looks like not so much
The rule of law has a way of catching up with even those who choose to ignore it

As long at people know that Trump’s hand-picked Attorney General is protecting Trump from justice, then we also know that there is no longer any Department of Justice.

Welcome to the D.O.I.

Sure, “stable” in the sense of that barnyard thread going on in another article’s comments section…

HAHA JUst backed down on closing the border too
President Trump is walking back his threat to close the border. Just now, the president says the U.S. will

  1. Give Mexico a one-year warning
  2. Then impose additional tariffs
  3. Then close the border
