WASHINGTON - A top U.S. House Democratic committee chairman on Wednesday appeared to rule out any imminent impeachment probe of President Donald Trump, but vowed quick court action to obtain the full, unredacted Mueller report on Russian election interference.
"There does not appear to be support for it now. And we will see. The support may develop," said Nadler, whose committee has jurisdiction over impeachment-related matters. "Make no mistake: we know exactly what path we're on. We know exactly what actions we need to take. And while that may take some more time than some people want it to take, I respect their impatience," she said.
The Judiciary Committee approved a contempt citation against Barr on May 8, on a party-line vote. That was after the attorney general defied the panel's subpoena and refused to appear for a hearing on Mueller's probe of Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election, contacts between Russians and the Trump campaign, and Trump's efforts to impede the probe.
