Counsel Robert Mueller. Remind us how we got to this point. Democrats have been trying to get special counsel mueller to talk about his report for months. Doorswere a lot of closed closed door behind the scenes negotiations to secure a painstakingly fought over limited hearing with him in public. And they think the hearing that hearing directly from him himself will help americans understand the nuances of his report. Stephanie you have talked about the effect on democrats wanting to put forward impeachment efforts. How will those hearings affect these moves . When muellersaw about aame out in april progression of about 80 something democrats who came out calling for impeachment inquiries against the president but that is not nearly enough to get them over the finish line or to even justify launching impeachment moves. Is yourthey describe it alert Robert Mueller released the book and now they have to make the movie. Stephanie we were supposed to have had the hearings this past week. What was the reason for the delay that you have been hearing . Kyle this is a very inside the capital kind of a problem.

Judiciary committee in particular, the democrats want Robert Mueller to talk about his thought process behind the obstruction of justice evidence that he compiled. The goal is formulated to capture if he would have charged President Trump with obstruction were there not a technical prohibition on it within the Justice Department. And if they can get him to approximate that, they feel that is what they want out of the hearing. Republicans will try to underscore their longterm believes that the team has an agenda and a bias. They will zoom in on that, the use of the controversial steele dossier. All ofnt to hammer on the areas of investigation that may have gone astray. Stephanie following congress as youely as you, where are curious to see these hearings move next week . Mueller testified in front of congress, he was fbi director and it was about six years ago in front of a friendly audience. How he handles himself in front of that withering pressure and whether he wants to tell people about things that were not
