Special coverage friday night. i want to get your reaction to what you've seen today and what you've read in the attorney general's letter about the mueller report which is really all we know about the mueller report at this point. >> thank you, lawrence. all of us are waiting with baded breath to hear what exactly bill barr is going to convey to congress of his summary of the mueller report. he commits in his letter to being as transparent as possible within the boundaries of policy and law, and as some of your guests before have pointed out, there are legitimate reasons why the attorney gene...
