President Donald Trump slammed the "ridiculous Russia Hoax" in a tweet on Saturday. Trump said the Russia Hoax must "never happen to another President." Trump ended his tweet by asking, "HOW DID IT START?"
"So, let’s get this straight! There was No Collusion and in fact, the Phony Dossier was a Con Job that was paid for by Crooked Hillary and the DNC," Trump wrote.
"So the 13 Angry Democrats were investigating an event that never happened and that was, in fact, a made up Fraud. I just fought back against something I knew never existed, Collusion with Russia (so ridiculous!) - No Obstruction," Trump added.
"This Russia Hoax must never happen to another President, and Law Enforcement must find out, HOW DID IT START?" Trump wrote. The Department of Justice released a four-page letter to Capitol Hill lawmakers on Sunday. Attorney General William Barr said special counsel Robert Mueller found no collusion between the Trump's presidential campaign and Russia in 2016. "The special counsel's investigation did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russia in its effort," Barr wrote. "The Special Counsel did not find that any U.S. person or Trump campaign official or associate conspired or knowingly coordinated" with Russia, Barr writes. "The Special Counsel, therefore, did not draw a conclusion - one way or the other - as to whether the examined conduct constituted obstruction," Barr wrote. "Instead, for each of the relevant actions investigated, the report sets out evidence on both sides of the question and leaves unresolved what the Special Counsel views as 'difficult issues' of law and fact concerning whether the President's actions and intent could be viewed as obstruction," Barr added.
