A top House Democrat demanded that the Justice Department produce all communications between Attorney General Bill Barr and special counsel Robert Mueller
A top House Democrat on Thursday demanded that the Justice Department produce all communications between Attorney General Bill Barr and special counsel Robert Mueller, citing news reports indicating that some members of Mueller's team are bristling at Barr's characterization of their final report on Russian collusion.
Instead, Barr issued his own four-page summary of Mueller's conclusions two weeks ago, quoting selectively from Mueller's report in a way Democrats have suggested could be misleading. President Donald Trump has highlighted Mueller's letter to declare "total exoneration" by Mueller's investigators.Sign Up
A Justice Department spokeswoman said Barr provided the initial findings “with the understanding that the report itself would be released after the redaction process” and “does not believe the report should be released in serial or piecemeal fashion.”
