Whoa!  Where does it say it was Barr's job to report on the report--and especially to decide whether Trump can be charged or not?

It is precisely because no one has "gotta go with that one"--because there IS another source of legal authority--that the controversy continues. 

There is a Constitutional question open right now as to who is supposed to decide whether Trump obstructed or not. And it looks to favor Congress at the moment precisely because of limits on the DOJ. 

That's what I learned by doing the extra work, and not accepting the intervention on Trump's behalf by a man who auditioned for AG by publishing an opinion limiting the scope of the Russia investigation. 

I didn't have to go with that one, and neither do you.
