I guess, like you, Bill Barr struggles with reading comprehension.

Remember when Bill Barr didn’t know the campaign had shared polling data with russians?

I comprehend quite well. No collusion and no obstruction. OLC opinion did not factor into Mueller's decision. What part of that do you not comprehend ?
 
Was this polling data to which you keep referring labeled "Top Secret"?
No

“Manafort instructed Rick Gates, his deputy on the Campaign and a longtime employee, to provide Kilimnik with updates on the Trump Campaign -- including internal polling data, although Manafort claims not to recall that specific instruction. Manafort expected Kilimnik to share that information with others in Ukraine and with (Russian oligarch Oleg) Deripaska. Gates periodically sent such polling data to Kilimnik during the campaign.”

[A] traditional prosecution or declination decision entails a binary determination to initiate or decline a prosecution, but we determined not to make a traditional prosecutorial judgment. The Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) has issued an opinion finding that “the indictment or criminal prosecution of a sitting President would impermissibly undermine the capacity of the executive branch to perform its constitutionally assigned functions” in violation of “the constitutional separation of powers.” Given the role of the Special Counsel as an attorney in the Department of Justice and the framework of the Special Counsel regulations, this Office accepted OLC’s legal conclusion for the purpose of exercising prosecutorial jurisdiction. And apart from OLC’s constitutional view, we recognized that a federal criminal accusation against a sitting President would place burdens on the President’s capacity to govern and potentially preempt constitutional processes for addressing presidential misconduct.
 
The silence of the leftist media and celebrities regarding the Philadelphia children chanting about beheading people for Allah speaks volumes. They were relentless in talking about white/Christian problems in America when it came to the Covington Catholic kids. Meanwhile, that was proven a lie and that the kids were not instigators.

Do we have a Islam problem in America?
 
No

So what ? No collusion and no obstruction ?
 
No

What say you?
