House Judiciary Chair Jerry Nadler: AG William Barr has taken “unprecedented steps to spin” Robert Mueller’s investigation. “The attorney general appears to be waging a media campaign on behalf of Pres. Trump.”
Washington has waited for the highly-anticipated report for weeks, with everyone from members of Congress to press assistants on Capitol Hill planning to dissect the report into Russia’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 election and whether or not President Donald Trump obstructed justice.
Democrats, led by the House Judiciary Committee and Chairman Jerry Nadler, are prepared to subpoena the Justice Department for the full document and underlying materials and fight for them in court, depending on what Barr releases on Thursday. That subpoena could be served as early as Friday, even as Nadler’s staff continues negotiations with the Justice Department about Mueller’s findings and turning the materials over.
In the House and Senate, lawmakers and committee staff plan to do speed reading of their own, to understand more about the investigation that has overshadowed Washington and the Trump administration for two years.
“The language of the report may give us the answer, but it may not, in which case we may want to hear from special counsel Mueller himself,” Raskin said.
