JUST IN: The White House complained to Attorney General Barr that Mueller should have decided on obstruction. A White House lawyer wrote a letter saying Mueller needed to 'either ask the grand jury to return an indictment or decline to charge the case.'
Washington The White House has accused special counsel Robert Mueller's team of playing politics with the investigation and wildly straying from their mission in a letter sent to Attorney General William Barr last month and released Thursday afternoon.
In the five-page letter, a top White House lawyer, Emmet Flood, raised several concerns with the substance and format of Mueller's report, which did not establish a criminal conspiracy between Trump's campaign and the Russians but did unearth substantial evidence of obstruction by Trump, but without saying if the President should be prosecuted.Flood slammed Mueller's approach to the obstruction investigation.
