Among the figures referred to by Mueller who refused Trump’s wishes were then-White House counsel Don McGahn, former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

“Our investigation found multiple acts by the President that were capable of exerting undue influence over law enforcement investigations, including the Russian-interference and obstruction investigations,” Mueller’s report said.

“The incidents were often carried out through one-on-one meetings in which the President sought to use his official power outside of usual channels,” the report continued. “These actions ranged from efforts to remove the Special Counsel and to reverse the effect of the Attorney General ‘s recusal; to the attempted use of official power to limit the scope of the investigation; to direct and indirect contacts with witnesses with the potential to influence their testimony.”

Trump, the report outlined, directed McGahn to have Mueller removed as special counsel. McGahn refused, and even prepared to quit over the matter. The report explained that “McGahn ultimately did not quit and the President did not follow up with McGahn on his request to have the Special Counsel removed” — putting on hold an outcome that would likely have opened Trump up to a harsher assessment from Mueller.

Furthermore, in January 2018, after The New York Times reported that Trump had ordered McGahn to fire Mueller, Trump “sought to have McGahn deny that he had been directed to remove the Special Counsel,” the Mueller report stated.

But, the report said, “each time he was approached, McGahn responded that he would not refuse the press accounts because they were accurate.”

In his report, Mueller also writes that Trump, after being rebuffed by McGahn, quickly directed Lewandowski “to tell the Attorney General to limit the scope of the Russia investigation to prospective election-interference only.”

According to the report, Trump dictated a message to Lewandowski in June 2017 that he wanted passed on to Sessions. The note said that Sessions should give a speech announcing he would limit the jurisdiction of the special counsel.

But Lewandowski, Mueller wrote, “did not deliver the President’s message to Sessions.” Lewandowski scheduled a time to meet with Sessions to deliver the message, but Sessions canceled, and then Lewandowski had to leave Washington.

One mother later, Trump met with Lewandowski again and asked him if he had delivered the message to Sessions. Lewandowski said he would deliver the message “soon,” and after he left the meeting, he handed the note to Sessions’ chief of staff Rick Dearborn, and asked him to give it to Sessions. Dearborn told Mueller’s team that the note “definitely raised an eyebrow” and never followed through — again stifling another move that may have led to bigger legal trouble for Trump.

In addition, Comey didn’t end the investigation into Trump’s first national security adviser, Michael Flynn, even though Trump had asked Comey in a one-on-one meeting to “see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go.”

Comey’s refusal to do so, Mueller noted, “ultimately resulted in Flynn’s prosecution and conviction for lying to the FBI.”

At other times in the report, Mueller noted similar scenarios, including Trump’s attempt to get Sessions to “unrecuse himself,” Trump’s attempt to get Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats to say publicly that no link existed between Trump and Russia, and Trump’s attempt to get then-Staff Secretary Rob Porter to reach out to Rachel Brand to discuss the possibility of installing her as a replacement for Sessions.

But in all of those instances, Trump’s directives were refused, helping Mueller reach a conclusion that, when it came to obstruction, Trump was largely untouchable.

“Consistent with that pattern, the evidence we obtained would not support potential obstruction charges against the President’s aides and associates beyond those already filed,” Mueller wrote in the report.

Jared Kushner

Among Kushner’s many appearances in the report is his and Flynn’s meeting with Russian Ambassador to the United States Sergey Kislyak at Trump Tower in New York after the 2016 election. The New York Times and others reported that the meeting that November was about improving relations between the two countries, and they discussed establishing a secure line of communication with Russia.

Mueller’s report confirms those details and adds that the three also discussed U.S. policy toward Syria.

At the 30-minute meeting, which Kislyak requested, Kushner “expressed a desire on the part of the incoming Administration to start afresh with U.S.-Russian relations,” the report said.

Kushner “asked Kislyak to identify the best person (whether Kislyak or someone else) with whom to direct future discussions — someone who had contact with Putin and the ability to speak for him,” the report said.

The three men “also discussed U.S. policy toward Syria, and Kislyak floated the idea of having Russian generals brief the Transition Team on the topic using a secure communications line,” the report said.

When Flynn replied that there was no secure line in the transition team offices, “Kushner asked Kislyak if they could communicate using secure facilities at the Russian Embassy. Kislyak quickly rejected that idea.”

Ivanka Trump

The president’s eldest daughter and senior White House aide is mentioned a handful of times in the redacted report, including in the response of senior administration officials to learning about Donald Jr.’s emails setting up the the June 9, 2016, Trump Tower meeting between him, then-campaign chairman Paul Manafort, Kushner and Russians offering negative information on Hillary Clinton.

The president became aware of the emails setting up the meeting with Russians who offered dirt on Clinton as “part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump” by June of the following year, the report said.

On multiple occasions over the next several weeks, Trump told his aides not to publicly disclose the emails, and then he dictated a statement about the meeting, to be issued by Donald Jr., that described the meeting as about adoption, it said.

Then-communications adviser Hope Hicks recalled discussing with Kushner and Ivanka that the emails were damaging and would inevitably be leaked, suggesting the best strategy would be to proactively release the emails to the press, the report said. But when they approached the president about the emails, Trump shut the conversation down and told them not to go to the press.

At a meeting between them and the president in late June, “Hicks warned the President that the emails were ‘really bad’ and the story would be ‘massive’ when it broke, but the President was insistent that he did not want to talk about it and said he did not want details,” the report said.

Ivanka was also present at a “regular morning meeting of senior campaign staff and Trump family members” in the days before the Trump Tower meeting in which Donald Jr. announced he had a lead on “negative information about the Clinton Foundation,” the report said, citing interviews with former deputy campaign manager Rick Gates. Manafort, Eric Trump and Hicks were also at the meeting, with Ivanka and Kushner joining late, the report said.

“Gates believed that Trump Jr. said the information was coming from a group in Kyrgyzstan and that he was introduced to the group by a friend,” the report said. It added, “According to Gates, Manafort warned the group that the meeting likely would not yield vital information and they should be careful.”

Donald Trump Jr.

In addition to his well-publicized interactions over the meeting with Russians at Trump Tower in the summer of 2016, Donald Jr. is also mentioned in the report regarding his correspondence with WikiLeaks prior to its dumping of hacked emails from her campaign chairman John Podesta.

In September 2016, the report says, Trump Jr. received a direct message on Twitter from WikiLeaks about a at-that-point soon-to-be-launched anti-Trump website, PutinTrump.org, and asking for any comments.

Several hours later, the report said, Trump Jr. emailed senior campaign staff telling them he “got a weird Twitter DM from wikileaks.” He responded to WikiLeaks’ by direct message: “Off the record, l don’t know who that is but I’ll ask around. Thanks.”

A couple weeks later, WikiLeaks messaged him again, asking for help spreading a link alleging that Trump’s Democratic rival, Clinton, had pushed for using a drone to target Julian Assange.

“Trump Jr. responded that he already ‘had done so,’ and asked, ‘what’s behind this Wednesday leak I keep reading about?'”

WikiLeaks did not respond, but several days later it wrote him again, saying it was “great to see you and your dad talking about our publications. Strongly suggest your dad tweets this link if he mentions us wlsearch.tk,” which the group said would help Trump parse through leaked emails. Two days later, Trump Jr. tweeted the link.
