Democrats have been clamoring for a full release of the Mueller report, presuming that a redacted report will be far less damaging to President Trump than the full report.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer released a statement calling on Barr to “make the full report public and provide its underlying documentation and findings to Congress,” declaring that the “White House must not be allowed to interfere in decisions about what parts of those findings or evidence are made public.”
NBC News also continued the “witch hunt” they say that Mueller’s team indicates that their conclusions were much more damning than Barr’s summary indicated.
Some of Robert S. Mueller III’s investigators have told associates that Attorney General William P. Barr failed to adequately portray the findings of their inquiry and that they were more troubling for President Trump than Mr. Barr indicated, according to government officials and others familiar with their simmering frustrations.
Today representative Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, has taken a major step towards another witch hunt.
He stated today that Muller should be called before his committee to testify on the investigation.
Nadler took to Twitter and threw his support behind Representative Doug Collins’s (R-GA) call for Mueller to testify.
Today, Ranking Member Collins called for Special Counsel Mueller to appear before @HouseJudiciary. I fully agree. Special Counsel Mueller should come before the Committee to answer questions in public about his 22 month investigation into President Trump and his associates. 1/2

In order to ask Special Counsel Mueller the right questions, the Committee must receive the Special Counsel’s full report and hear from Attorney General Barr about that report on May 2. We look forward to hearing from Mr. Mueller at the appropriate time. 2/2

The leaders of the House Judiciary Committee agreed to call special counsel Robert Mueller to appear for a hearing. The question now is whether Mueller would agree.
Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., the panel’s ranking member, opened the bidding with a letter in which he asked the chairman, Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., to invite Mueller to testify later this month.
Although the committee expects to hear from Attorney General William Barr, Collins wrote, it must go to the source to learn all it needs to know about the special counsel inquiry.
Do you want to see the full report?
Or should we end this “witch hunt” once and for all!
