Trump didn’t coordinate with Russia over 2016 presidential elections, Mueller report declares without providing definitive answer to whether US president obstructed justice

House Judiciary Committee chairman says US Department of Justice letter describing Robert Mueller's report on Russia probe"does not conclude that the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him".

The House Judiciary Committee chairman said Congress needs to hear from Barr about his decision and see "all the underlying evidence."
