Mueller escribe un artículo de opinión sobre Trump por conmutar la sentencia de Roger Stone

El ex fiscal especial Robert Mueller escribió un artículo de opinión en el Washington Post sobre su oposición a que Trump conmute la sentencia de su amigo Roger Stone. Aquí hay parte de lo que dijo:
… I feel compelled to respond both to broad claims that our investigation was illegitimate and our motives were improper, and to specific claims that Roger Stone was a victim of our office. The Russia investigation was of paramount importance. Stone was prosecuted and convicted because he committed federal crimes. He remains a convicted felon, and rightly so.
Aquí da una historia de cómo comenzó la investigación rusa, luego continuó:
We now have a detailed picture of Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election. The special counsel’s office identified two principal operations directed at our election: hacking and dumping Clinton campaign emails, and an online social media campaign to disparage the Democratic candidate. We also identified numerous links between the Russian government and Trump campaign personnel — Stone among them. We did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired with the Russian government in its activities. The investigation did, however, establish that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome. It also established that the campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts.
Uncovering and tracing Russian outreach and interference activities was a complex task. The investigation to understand these activities took two years and substantial effort. Based on our work, eight individuals pleaded guilty or were convicted at trial, and more than two dozen Russian individuals and entities, including senior Russian intelligence officers, were charged with federal crimes.
Congress also investigated and sought information from Stone. A jury later determined he lied repeatedly to members of Congress. He lied about the identity of his intermediary to WikiLeaks. He lied about the existence of written communications with his intermediary. He lied by denying he had communicated with the Trump campaign about the timing of WikiLeaks’ releases. He in fact updated senior campaign officials repeatedly about WikiLeaks. And he tampered with a witness, imploring him to stonewall Congress.
Así es como concluyó:
When a subject lies to investigators, it strikes at the core of the government’s efforts to find the truth and hold wrongdoers accountable. It may ultimately impede those efforts.
We made every decision in Stone’s case, as in all our cases, based solely on the facts and the law and in accordance with the rule of law. The women and men who conducted these investigations and prosecutions acted with the highest integrity. Claims to the contrary are false.
Ahí tienes.

 Muy probablemente de acuerdo con Mueller está Mitt Romney, quien envió este tweet infeliz:
También estoy viendo a un montón de demócratas enloquecer por eso, pero están sucediendo tantas cosas en este momento que dudo que al público le importe mucho de cualquier manera. Esto quedará enterrado bajo una montaña de noticias más terribles desde ahora hasta el lunes ...

 Bueno, eso es todo para el sábado. Esperamos que esté teniendo un gran fin de semana y apreciamos cada tweet, compartir y comentar generosamente que nos da para mantener este sitio en funcionamiento.

 Jajaja Genio.
