Following last week's public release of the highly-anticipated report on Robert Mueller's Russia probe, Russian news outlets have widely mocked the US liberal media and Democrats' "meltdown" over the investigation finding no evidence of collusion from President Donald Trump, or anyone else on his campaign.
Describing the Mueller report as "lackluster," many of Russia's media outlets panned the Democratic Party, citing the results from the probe as evidence the Dems were "out for blood" after losing the 2016 election.
In an NBC News article about Russia's reaction to the Mueller report, journalist Ben Popken whines about how Russian headlines are "repeating President Donald Trump and Attorney General William Barr’s 'no collusion' lines," suggesting it's due to them coming from "state-funded" outlets.
After the Mueller report was released, Russian media and its personalities took a keen interest in the findings, echoing much of the sentiment typically expressed outside the Democratic realm.
Most of the headlines from Russian media declared that the Mueller report was a “hoax and a farce” that had found “no evidence” and “no collusion” to support the “unsubstantiated” “Russiagate” and contained “nothing new.”
“It is America that is looking forward to the report’s release, but we aren’t,” Russian President Vladimir Putin's press secretary Dmitry Peskov told TASS.
“We have more interesting and important things to do."

Former President Obama, his Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and other top Democrats have refused to refer to the victims of the terror attacks in Sri Lanka on Sunday as Christians, instead, calling them "Easter worshippers."
Almost 300 people were killed and 500 more injured when suicide bombers launched attacks on Christian worshippers in three churches, three hotels, and a housing complex.
Many of the victims were killed while attending Mass for Easter Sunday.
The government reportedly suspects that the bombers, all Sri Lankans, were members of “a domestic Islamist terror group named National Thowfeek Jamaath.”
An official at the U.S. Embassy in Colombo, Sri Lanka confirmed on Monday that at least four Americans were killed in the bombing attacks, according to CBS News.
The representative told the outlet she could not give any further details "due to privacy concerns and out of respect to the families."
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo revealed on Sunday that "several" US citizens were confirmed to have been among the dead.
The victims' identities have yet to be made public, however.
