Congress has been informed by the Justice Department that it will not receive a summary of special counsel Robert Mueller's findings on Saturday, according to two sources familiar with the discussion
Lawmakers will be in the dark for at least one more day on special counsel Robert Mueller's central findings about the contacts between associates of President Donald Trump and Russia during the 2016 campaign.
Rep. Pramila Jayapal , a member of the Judiciary Committee, said Republicans' efforts over the last two years to force the public release of elements of the Russia probe — as well as the investigation of Hillary Clinton's email server — had armed Democrats with an argument to require significant disclosure of the Mueller findings.
Barr has indicated he could brief top lawmakers as soon as Saturday on Mueller's main findings, but no details have emerged about the timing of that update.
That could include issuing a subpoena that could plunge the two branches of government into a protracted court fight — and potentially demanding that Mueller himself testify publicly after nearly two years of operating in virtual secrecy.
