This week Attorney General William Barr publicly  released a redacted version of the Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s  report, almost a month after he delivered it to Barr. The redacted  report differed substantially from Barr’s March 24 letter, as well as  from statements delivered by Barr at a press conference hours before the  report’s release — casting Barr more as a defense attorney for Trump  than an attorney general. Concerns grew further when it was revealed  Trump’s White House attorneys had previewed the report in consultation  with the Justice Department days earlier.
On Thursday, as the redacted report was  released, Trump, who had expressed no interest in reading the report,  seemed confident he had turned the corner and was in the clear. As the  press and public finally dug into the contents of the redacted report  and statements by current and former White House official witnesses, by  Friday, Trump shifted back to anger and attack mode, starting by  retaliating against former White House counsel Don McGahn. After reading  the report, Senator Elizabeth Warren became the first 2020 contender to  call for impeachment hearings.
