Folks, is it over, yet?

I mean, is it safe to come out and opine without being slammed as a hater or a Trump lover?

Has the Mueller report settled anything? Is President Donald Trump truly exoneraed as he claims or will Robert Mueller's future testimony along with Attorney General Bill Barr's congressional hearing shed more darkness than light?

I don't know.

What I do know however is this-- the world will go on, Americans will continue to hate one another over Trump. Names will continued to be called and probably nobody's mind will have changed, regardless of facts presented.

Democrats will insist upon getting to the truth. Republicans will claim the Dems are only in it to get at Trump as they promote hearings on the investigators.

Few things have changed, since yesterday's Barr bizarre press conference or should I say, in my view, Trump's closing argument.

Like I said, little has changed, the noise has only gotten more shrill.

If that were possible.

Here are some tweets I have collected that I think presents the tone of the moment. Enjoy.

The explanation does not wash. https://t.co/TPDeTZSAdi

Sarah Sanders this AM on the lie she admitted to Mueller saying “countless” FBI agents thanked her for Trump firing Comey. “It was in the heat of moment, meaning that it wasn't a scripted talking point. I'm sorry that I wasn't a robot like the Democratic Party” talking collusion

Regardless of whether the obstructive acts described by Mueller was criminal or whether the litany of illicit contacts with Russia rose to the level of conspiracy, they're dishonest, unethical, and unpatriotic.

"Not only does she not have credibility, she lied. She out and out lied...the American people can’t trust her," says @AprilDRyan of Press Sec. Sarah Sanders.

Mueller assembled a devastating obstruction of justice case against Trump. That’s why Barr tried so hard to hide it from us.

To name a few:

1-Trump claimed he never asked for loyalty from Comey - Mueller found he did.
2-Trump claimed he never asked Comey to let Flynn matter go - Mueller found he did.
3-Trump claimed he never pushed McGahn to fire Mueller - Mueller found he did. https://t.co/QdFTP0ZTFm

The WH is "defined by a president who lies to the public and his own staff, then tries to get his aides to lie for him." https://t.co/DH35jlnmUP

And Mueller said it over and over: No collusion. Are seven examples enough? Here: https://t.co/53S2iFZzbB pic.twitter.com/T5b2eRDOD8
