Anyway, I asked what you believed, and you aren't willing to say that you believe she's biased. And you think he's guilty, and you don't really dispute that he was covering for the President.

If you hear all the evidence and opine about something beyond the scope of that on which you were supposed to rule, you raise an inquiry as to why you’ve done so.
To use the word “cover-up,“ you necessarily suggest there was some illegal or unethical act being concealed. The person Berman suggests was engaged in that act is the president. However, she does not know that there was any unethical or illegal activity which was covered up. She could not know that, as Mueller was not even able to conclusively state that.
When you use a loaded phrase that you didn’t need to use, and offer an opinion on an issue that was not before you, you can’t help but raise the suggestion that you are biased. But do I know she was biased? No. I can’t know what’s in her head. As I noted, she may have just been infuriated with stone and Trump and Barr.
