Robert Mueller's Russia Report to Be Released Thursday
- 5 years ago
Robert Mueller's Russia Report
to Be Released Thursday In 2017, Mueller was tasked with finding
out if President Trump won the 2016
election due to Russian interference. Last month, Attorney General William Barr told
Congress that Mueller did not find any reason to
suspect that Trump conspired with the Russians. As a result, it is presumed
that Trump will not be charged
with obstruction of justice. Instead, the report
is expected to reveal
the facts that led
to Barr's statement. According to Barr, it will not be
Mueller's complete report, but it
will consist of close to 400 pages
of "tables and appendices." Barr also revealed that he has
been working to redact four kinds
of information from the report. Those types of information include grand jury material,
foreign intelligence that could compromise sources,
other ongoing cases and information that might harm
"peripheral third parties who were not charged." According to 'NPR,' Sen. Brian Schatz
asked Barr if the report was going to
make sense or if they'd be required to
"flip 15 pages to find the next text." Attorney General
