The special counsel is not recommending any further indictments now that the Mueller investigation is complete, a senior Justice official says
A few moments past 5 p.m. ET, CNN's Evan Perez broke the news that special counsel Robert Mueller had finished his investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election.
The White House does not have the report, according to the Justice official. The attorney general’s chief of staff called White House lawyer Emmet Flood and read the information in Bill Barr’s letter to the Hill. Any attempt by the Trump Administration to cover up the results of this investigation into Russia's attack on our democracy would be unacceptable."Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi just sent out a joint statement calling on Attorney General William Barr"to make the full report public and provide its underlying documentation and findings to Congress.
"I am grateful we have an experienced and capable Attorney General in place to review the Special Counsel’s report," he said in a statement.“I welcome the announcement that the Special Counsel has finally completed his investigation into Russia’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 elections. Many Republicans have long believed that Russia poses a significant threat to American interests.
