President -- i pamean, not sinc the 1700s has there been a high-ranking government official who was investigated for potentially being in the foreign power. it certainly never happened to a president. are we going to find out what robert mueller found out what he investigated that core issue? well, depends on what william barr thinks about long-standing practices and policies and how those can be applied to this question but i think it's also worth noting that bill barr says there is some other information in the mueller report. remember all that the special counsel regulations require is that...

The public what bill barr told them? and what counts as mueller's principle conclusions anyway? how much detail is that? how much is the attorney general going to tell those two house members and those two senators 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 it's probably the most important part of the letter while also being the most frustratingly vague. again, this is bill barr's letter. i intend to consult with deputy attorney general rod rosenstein and robert mueller to determine what information from the report can...

Was on going. so yes, there could be very small things but i think the most important point is this investigation began as a counter intelligence investigation, not a criminal investigation. it went to look at the question of whether people were acting as agents of a foreign power. that information needs to be made public and if we need to do declassified information in the interest of transparency and not sacrifice methods, we should do that, too. >> what are you going to do if barr says no? if william barr says this report has been submitted to me, i have the one copy of this report. i belie...

Is anything you can imagine might be in this report that can't go especially to the public if there is anything with intelligence matters that relates to intelligence matters that you would be sympathetic to keeping under wraps, either just being briefed to your committee or just being held within the justice department. >> there may very well be things in the report that were acquired minor redactions that might go to a source of information gathered by an intel agency. i wouldn't be surprised if bob mueller left those specific source references out of the report that wouldn't be necessary to...
