On Principles & Values: Mueller report says Trump obstructed justice

The release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report made clear that Donald Trump obstructed justice. For two years, members of Congress said we needed to wait for Mueller's report before making any judgments on impeachment. We now know that Mueller's team exposed at least 140 contacts between the Kremlin and the Trump campaign, brought 199 criminal charges, handed down 37 indictments or guilty pleas, and earned at least five prison sentences.

Special Counsel Mueller laid out strong evidence that Trump obstructed justice, and (as he considered himself bound by Justice Department guidance against indicting a sitting president) invoked Congress's responsibility to enforce checks and balances to ensure no one branch of government becomes too powerful.

The stage is already set for a Trump reckoning. The impeachment process would remind voters why they don't approve of this lawless president.
