Trump says he has not read Mueller report

Posted by / April 6, 2019

Donald Trump has said that he has not read the most significant document of his presidency, the Mueller report. He tweeted: “I have not read the Mueller Report yet, even though I have every right to do so. Only know the conclusions, and on the big one, No Collusion.” The admission is somewhat stunning given that many of Mueller’s own staff were not happy with Barr’s report, which seems to be the source of Trump’s conclusions.

A House of Representatives committee has voted to issue a subpoena demanding that the justice department release the full Mueller report and all the evidence about the Trump campaign’s connections with Russia. The vote comes after Attorney General William Barr ignored the Democrat’s deadline demanding he submit the report to Congress.

Far from relaxing, tensions have only increased since William Barr’s controversial letter summarizing the Mueller report. Many on the liberal side of the aisle believe that the few people who have seen the report are those who are least trustworthy.

Trump’s tweet is likely to infuriate his opponents even more, especially as days pass without the report’s release either to the public. Congress is working to continue the Mueller investigations. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff has said, “I think it’s inevitable that Bob Mueller is going to have to testify before Congress…[the committee has] a statutory requirement that the Intelligence Community, FBI, brief us on any significant counterintelligence or intelligence activity. And it’s hard to imagine something that rises more to that level than this investigation.”
