#ReleasetheReport

San Franciscans, brought together by IndivisibleSF and MoveOn, rallied at Powell and Market, on Thursday to demand release of the full Mueller report which Trump and his Attorney General are seeking to withhold.

Representative Adam Schiff, who chairs the House committee investigating foreign intrusions in US democracy, was a hero to this crowd. A leader intoned the evidence we have all seen which Schiff repeated in a committee presentation:

You might think its okay that the Russians offered dirt on a Democratic candidate for president as part of what was described as the Russian government’s effort to help the Trump campaign ... When that was offered to the son of the president, who had a pivotal role in the campaign, the president’s son did not call the FBI, he did not adamantly refuse that foreign help. Instead that son said that he would love the help of the Russians. ... Paul Manafort, the campaign chair, someone with great experience in running campaigns, also took that meeting…. The president’s son-in-law also took that meeting…. They concealed it from the public…. Their only disappointment after that meeting was that the dirt they received on Hillary Clinton wasn’t better. ...

After each phrase, the crowd shouted Schiff's meme: "It's not okay."

It's not okay.
