Now we learn that Mueller deliberately excluded other evidence that would make Trump look good.
One of the key points made in the Mueller report is that Ukrainian businessman Konstantin Kiliminik is associated with Russian intelligence. This report tries to make this look bad for Trump because Kilimnik worked for Paul Manafort, who was Trump's campaign manager for a while.
What the Mueller report deliberately doesn't mention is that Kilimnik is a "sensitive" intelligence source for the US State Department. That's right Obama's State Department viewed Kiliminik as a useful source on the goings on in Russia and the Ukraine.
Kiliminik was so useful that he met multiple times a week with the chief political officer at the US Embassy in Kiev and officials kept his name out of cables so it wouldn't be leaked.
Clearly the fact that Kiliminik was a trusted, reliable source that helped the US completely changes what people would think when they heard that he worked for Paul Manafort. Given that the Mueller team had this information but didn't include it in the report shows that they were lying by omission; by not telling we the people that Kiliminik was viewed as valuable asset by the Obama administration not a Russian spy they tried to make it look like Manafort might be in cahoots with the Russians.
