Congress has been told to expect a summary of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation Sunday afternoon, according to two people familiar with the Justice Department's plans. The report is expected to reveal for the first time the main findings of Mueller's nearly two-year probe into President Donald Trump and Russian efforts to elect him.

Attorney General William Barr has spent the weekend combing through Mueller's report, which he received Friday, deciding how much of it Congress and the public will see. Democrats are pressing for full disclosure of Mueller's report and vowing to use subpoena powers and other legal means if necessary to get it.

Mueller submitted his report to Barr instead of directly to Congress and the public because, unlike independent counsels such as Ken Starr in the case of President Bill Clinton, his investigation operated under the close supervision of the Justice Department, which appointed him. Democrats are citing the department's recent precedent of norm-breaking disclosures, including during the Hillary Clinton email investigation, to argue that they're entitled to Mueller's entire report and the underlying evidence he collected.He faces a separate Justice Department investigation in New York into hush money payments during the campaign to two women who say they had sex with him years before the election.
