A Concise Summary and Analysis of the Mueller Report

by Ted Morrissey

"The Mueller Report," Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report on Russian interference in the 2016 election and possible obstruction of justice by President Donald Trump, may be the most important political and historical document produced in the 21st century, but it is extremely challenging to read, at nearly 450 single-spaced pages, with almost 2,400 footnotes, sentences, paragraphs and whole pages blacked out, and references to a vast number of people, many of whom have Russian or Ukrainian names that are difficult to process and retain. Award-winning author and educator Ted Morrissey has written a concise summary and analysis of Mueller's report to assist those who are interested in its contents but find the complete report daunting. "A Concise Summary and Analysis of The Mueller Report" includes an Introduction and four chapters dealing with the most crucial material in Mueller's full the Trump campaign's contacts with Russia, Russia's cyber warfare on the United States, the President's possible obstruction of justice, and Mueller's legal analysis. "A Concise Summary and Analysis of The Mueller Report" includes clear citations to the original for those who want to read in more detail about specific issues, and it provides just enough context to make the most complex issues easier to understand. Each chapter is separated into subtitled sections to make it even easier to follow. Don't rely on hearsay and biased reporting in the media. Read for yourself what it says in "The Mueller Report" without spending months wading through all 450 heavily footnoted and frustratingly redacted pages.
