Impeachment?
Why exactly? It’s no secret Trumps broken some laws here and there- this was common knowledge before he set foot in the White House.
Then again this is the case for most of Congress too. The sad reality of the matter is everyone in a position of authority in DC is crooked to the bone. 1% Pelosi has the same moral authority to indict Trump as a Sicilian mobster - and what’s worse is thinking Americans already know this.
So impeaching Trump because he’s broken the law through a legislature of corrupt lawbreakers yields a resounding “meh” from me. An honest impeachment proceeding would drain nearly the entire city of incumbent politicians, directly to Federal prison. As that’s even less likely to happen then honest economic reform or me waking up to a billion dollar ATM balance, I’ll return to the full time job of building a legacy for myself and family.

Yes.
There are a number of members of congress and senators who have publicly stated they're read the report. Some the unredacted report. This information is readily available due to multiple news outlets simply asking them and then reporting their findings on the internet.

This seems to summarize the situation nicely:

Marxists have the "prove innocence" standard. While there is no past evidence that Mueller is a Marxist, I can't exonerate his Marxism either. /sarcasm

The presidents econ advisor is Larry Kudlow. Low wattage ex Fox talking head. Very qualified, very smart, boot licker. Fired from Bear Stearns for cocaine and alcohol abuse. Found a new home in the WH. Probably has better rehab insurance there. He used to be a free trader just like Pence until the Orange man called.
Sometimes you just have to roll with it.It's a higher calling.

From the NRA-ILA:
He's the kind of expert I trust on legal matters! His goal in life is: PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR TV SHOW!!During a recent appearance on Newsmax TV, Harvard Law Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz said the Second Amendment is an “absurd thing” in our constitution and that our legal framework needs to be adjusted “to create a presumption against gun ownership instead of a presumption in favor of gun ownership.”
The point was that he's a leftist. Maybe not of Stacy Abrams Batshittery Branch, but still a leftist.

Is there really any need to read it? The entire thing is a dog and pony show anyway.
Demo congress wants the media exposure of an impeachment. If they play their cards right they can run it right up to election.
My guess they've calculated it to do just that.
Free media exposure. Trump should have some kind of copyright or patent on that, he developed the process. A regular P. T. Barnum.

This^^^^is exactly what it's all about, the dems don't have anything left but impeachment..Sometimes I think that if some bad actor in the world were to nuke D.C. at a time when everybody in congress was in town, they might be doing the rest of us a big favor...
