>> which he will say and democrats will say is that you were spinning on behalf of the president, with the principal conclusions that you released, they leveled charges that you held back the mueller report for several weeks. were you spinning for the white house to buy some time? >> no, i wasnt. i think what theyre really perhaps annoyed about is that they didnt have an opportunity to spin and that the fundamental findings of the report were out there for everybody to see. and they were not in ...

Or at least he is willing to say he does. as long as its what the president wants to hear. even though hes essentially throwing his good friend bob mueller under the bus. remember he said in his hearings he and bob were really good friends, no wonder they havent spoken lately. >> when did you speak with him last? correspond with him? >> the last i talked to him was, i think, the thursday after he delivered his report when we had a telephone call. but theres no -- >> so thats been several weeks? ...

>> so thats been several weeks? >> yeah, but theres no -- thats not because of any strain between us or anything. >> and that call, the attorney general mentions, the last time he talked to mueller, that call came after mueller said not one but two letters to barr, criticizing his summary of the special counsels report for not fully capturing the context, nature and substance of muellers work and conclusions. heres what barr says about his summary. >> which he will say and democrats will say is ...
