Bret Baier: Both sides should agree, no Russia collusion 'is a good day for America'

All Americans should agree that the findings of the Mueller investigation are a good thing: the President of the United States did not collude with Russia.

Bret Baier, Fox News Channel chief political anchor and host of "Special Report," said Monday in response to the four-page letter Attorney General Bill Bar sent to key congressional leaders summarizing Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation.

"No matter what your ideology is and where you sit, this is a good day for America," Baier told "Fox & Friends" Monday morning. "The special counsel did not find an American tied to the Trump campaign or the president, who colluded, conspired, or cooperated with Russia. That is good. Period. The end."

Democrats are demanding the release of the full report as President Trump and those on the right are calling for a look into the origins of the Russa collusion claims.

Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren tweeted: “Congress voted 420-0 to release the full Mueller report. Not a "summary" from his handpicked Attorney General. AG Barr, make the full report public. Immediately.”

READ THE MUELLER REPORT FINDINGS

New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker tweeted: “The American public deserves the full report and findings from the Mueller investigation immediately—not just the in-house summary from a Trump Administration official.”

New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand wrote: “The Mueller report must be made public. Not just a letter from someone appointed by Trump to protect himself—all of it. The President works for the people, and he is not above the law.”

California Sen. Kamala Harris tweeted: “The Mueller report needs to be made public, the underlying investigative materials should be handed over to Congress, and Barr must testify. That is what transparency looks like. A short letter from Trump's hand-picked Attorney General is not sufficient.”

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said at a rally in San Francisco: “I don't want a summary of the report! I want the whole damn report because nobody, especially this president, is above the law.”

Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana, who is considering a run for president, spoke about the report on MSNBC: “I think the American people deserve to see the report itself, not simply the Attorney General’s summary of it. And as was said in the summary, the president’s not being indicted at the moment, but he’s also not being exonerated at the moment. From the political perspective, I think this is further evidence that it would be a mistake for Democrats to think that the way for the Trump presidency to end is by way of investigation.”

From Las Vegas, former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke said: “Our democracy was attacked in a way that we haven’t seen in the 243 years that we’ve had a democracy. Attacked by a foreign power and I think we’ve gotta see if it was also attacked from within from somebody who sought to assume power.”
