@matthewamiller Mueller report frames that episode as being about Trump wanting to shut down the obstruction probe he just found out about, so anon official's reiteration of Barr's letter talking about intent re no Russia conspiracy to cover up is kinda irrelevant. @mattzap

@matthewamiller @mattzap That is, the question raised by the report is whether T intended to obstruct the obstruction-of-justice investigation. Very meta. In any case, later directing McGahn to falsify an internal WH doc about this incident, as M was telling OSC about it, is the real rubber hitting road.
