House Democrats prepare contempt vote against US attorney-general over Mueller report
Barr has released a redacted version of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report on his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election. House judiciary committee chair Jerrold Nadler subpoenaed the full document and underlying evidence, setting an initial deadline that Barr missed last week.
Republicans reject Nadler's efforts as political theatre, which they say is intended to satisfy the Democrats' voters. Nadler's committee views the full Mueller report as vital to its own corruption and obstruction of justice investigation of Trump. The chairs of five other House committees investigating the president have also called for its release.
