The report and we will reserve the right to call mueller or to testify before the committee or subpoena him as several other committees might do but well only do that if necessary. the important thing is that the entire report be made public and the evidence behind it be given to the relevant committees so the american people can be informed. >> tonight is a landmark moment. i would still be fishing otherwise. but we still have no idea as to what robert mueller has found. you heard the chairman ...

As soon as this weekend? we do not know. not yet. but then here is the last substantive part of the letter and i think its probably the most important part of the letter while also being the most frustratingly vague. again, this is bill barrs letter. "separately i intend to consult with deputy attorney general rod rosenstein and special counsel robert mueller to determine what other information from the report can be released to congress and the public consistent with the law including the speci...

Uncovered on all counter intelligence matters must be shared with the house intelligence committee whether it resulted in indictment or not.is him saying barr you do not have the leeway. any intelligence matters must be disclosed to us. we will insist they meet statutory obligations and be transparent with the committee. anythingless your negligent. thats the intelligence committee chairman saying i hear you mr. attorney general when you say youre deciding what information in the report can be r...

Soon as tomorrow afternoon. as you say, it may just be bullet points but one of the things ill be looking for there is its easy to say well send up the key findings from muellers investigation on the matters that were assigned to him but as you know, rachel, we dont know what was assigned to robert mueller. we know trump russia broadly and an issue related to paul manafort but remember from a few months ago, there say blacked out portion of the memo that designated the scope of muellers investig...

I believe that the principle conclusion should be briefed and as far as im concerned, the principle conclusions are these are the people indicted and there is no justice department responsibility to pass anything else on. i dont care about public clamber or statements about what i must do from anybody, im just going to sit on all of the rest of it. i mean, presumably subpoenaing the report and subpoenaing mr. mueller himself, subpoenaing other people involved in the investigation, ultimately tho...

To whom this letter is addressed. just the top democrats and top republicans on the judiciary committees in the house and senate. once they are advised by bill barr as soon as this weekend of the principle conclusions of robert muellers report, will those chairs and ranking members of the judiciary commit is tell the public what bill barr told them? and what counts as muellers principle conclusions anyway? how much detail is that? how much is the attorney general going to tell those two house me...

Released to congress but any counter intelligence investigation into the report must by law be released to the intelligence committee, which is again not at all the way attorney general william barr is talking about hell do with the information but the intelligence committee chairman may have a point in terms of them having the law for being able to access this information sort of despite attorney general william barrs discretion and now tonight, there is this statement from chairman jerry nadle...

Circuit president and more than the intelligence committee that says if they send a subpoena or ask for the information, they should be able to get it. even grand jury information, intelligence information. there are channels that can flow through. i do think members of congress will see that eventually. whether the public sees every bit of that im not totally sure if there were bit players here that maybe came across muellers scope at one point. they might have a privacy argument but if youre a...

What robert mueller has found. you heard the chairman of the judiciary committee there talking about the need to disclose this information and plans to get it. we dont know what robert mueller found out in the investigation and honestly, we dont know how his investigation proceeded and whether it was impeded by any sort of pressure or interference by anyone at any time. now the fight to find out all of that stuff starts in earnest and this is truly uncharted territory. we never had a special cou...

Going to sit on all of the rest of it. i mean, presumably subpoenaing the report and subpoenaing mr. mueller himself, subpoenaing other people involved in the investigation, ultimately those get enforced through the justice department. if william bar decided he would dig in his heels and let none of this out, its hard to figure out what leverage could be used against him. >> well, the congress has considerable leverage and certainly we would begin by requesting information and move to subpoenas ...
