Mueller 'expressed frustration over the lack of context and the resulting media coverage regarding the special counsel’s obstruction analysis,” a Justice Department spokesperson said.

After U.S. Attorney General William Barr provided Congress his summary of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election on March 24, Mueller penned a letter to Barr later that month detailing his objections of the summary and concerns that it did not properly reflect his team’s findings.

In his four-page summary, delivered nearly 48 hours after receiving Mueller’s report, Barr wrote that the"Special Counsel's investigation did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russia in its efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election.

The issue lies in whether Barr’s summary, which was released almost a month before Mueller’s redacted report was made public, misled public opinion. Critics have argued that by the time Mueller’s redacted report was released, many Americans’ understanding of what happened had already been shaped. “A great day for America and for President @realDonaldTrump,” Sanders added in a later tweet. “After two years of wild anti-Trump hysteria, the President and his millions of supporters have been completely vindicated.”
