The Special Counsel report, and retention of the formality of receiving a criminal sentence, may be all the accountability our convicted felon ever gets, but it’ll go on his permanent record, a sizable asterisk in history books. That’s why he wants everything expunged and wiped away. The envelope of Mercian’s penalties may have no contents, but he still must receive the envelope.

That's the shame of it. I don't think the report will do much or say anything beyond the high level view. Unless there's the possibility of prosecuting in the future I would prefer we stop being nice and release a report with so much detail of the evidence that it will be insanely painful to Trump and those involved while redacting only the witnesses for safety (not that the new AG can't get the info anyway). Lay it out - this is EVERYTHING we had... all cards on the table. Then pardon Jack and his crew.
