Widespread doubt and suspicion have remained despite Attorney General Bill Barr’s statement that the Mueller investigation found no criminal collusion by Trump’s 2016 campaign with Russia.
WASHINGTON - Nearly four weeks after President Donald Trump declared himself completely exonerated of conspiring with Russia to win office or obstructing justice, Americans will on Thursday get a chance to judge for themselves with the release of a redacted version of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s final report on the politically charged case.
The report itself will not be given to Congress until between 11 am and noon, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler told a news conference, saying Barr “appears to be waging a media campaign on behalf of President Trump.” “We believe the only way to begin restoring public trust in the handling of the Special Counsel’s investigation is for Special Counsel Mueller himself to provide public testimony in the House and Senate as soon as possible,” Pelosi and Schumer said.
Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani told reporters he is preparing a detailed “counter report” focusing on the obstruction allegations.“This should never happen to a president or to this country again, what took place,” he said of the investigation. The report should also summarize the already-known charges brought against six former Trump aides, and explain why none of them, or anyone else, was charged in the conspiracy that involved Russians.
