Has not Robert Mueller been Muzzled? Did We Even Notice As Much?

   We speak of free speech. I wonder if there is a more grievous denial of free speech than what Robert Mueller has suffered.
   He was muzzled. We spent spend millions of dollars on his investigation only to muzzle what he could say. It was one of the highest profile investigations ever, yet what was found out about our president was not fully allowed to be said.
   Tell me if you saw that angle in any of the news stories on Mueller's speech. Did you? How many news outlets covered that? How many saw this, and reported it?
   Pick up the text of his speech and read it.
   "The Special Counsel's Office is part of the Department of Justice and, by regulation, it was bound by that Department policy. Charging the President with a crime was therefore not an option we could consider."
   Does he not say they were not allowed to charge the president with a crime -- that that would be against department policy?
   Read just a little further.
   "And, beyond Department policy, we were guided by principles of fairness. It would be unfair to potentially accuse somebody of a crime when there can be no court resolution of an actual charge."
   If you cannot charge someone with a crime, because the department won't let you, yet you make the charge, anyway, even though you don't file that charge, isn't that pretty much the same thing? If you make the accusations, they, themselves, beg for charges to be filed. You may as well file them because there's not much difference.
   Mueller seems to have recognized that and chose to not even verbalize what he would say if he were allowed to say it.
    Read Mueller's speech further, and learn that he said they had to choose their words carefully in the report, itself.
   Tell me we have not muzzled our highest investigator? Tell me we have not taken one of the highest level investigations in our nation's history, and muzzled it. We speak of erosion of our freedoms. Why should this not count?
