Main findings of Mueller report will not be released Saturday: U.S. official
Democrats on the U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee scheduled a 2 p.m. conference call to talk about next steps and messaging, congressional aides said. The 235 members of the Democratic caucus in the House scheduled a 3 p.m. call, a senior Democratic aide said.
Trump had no public events scheduled on Saturday and played golf, White House spokesman Hogan Gidley said. “He’s fine,” Gidley said, when asked by reporters how Trump was feeling. “He’s good, he’s good.” Gidley declined to say whether Trump had talked about the Mueller report while golfing. The big question is whether the report contains allegations of wrongdoing by Trump or exonerates him. Mueller investigated whether Trump’s campaign conspired with Moscow to try to influence the election and whether the Republican president later unlawfully tried to obstruct his investigation.FILE PHOTO: Special Counsel Robert Mueller departs after briefing members of the U.S.
The White House has not received or been briefed on the report, spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said on Friday, adding that “we look forward to the process taking its course.” Trump has denied collusion and obstruction. Russia has denied election interference. Trump said on Wednesday he does not mind if the public is allowed to see the report.
Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer, the two top Democrats in Congress, said the investigation focused on questions that “go to the integrity of our democracy itself: whether foreign powers corruptly interfered in our elections, and whether unlawful means were used to hinder that investigation.”U.S.
