U.S. Attorney General William Barr leaves his house after Special Counsel Robert Mueller found no evidence of collusion between U.S. President Donald Trump’s campaign and Russia in the 2016 election in McClean, Virginia, U.S., March 25, 2019. REUTERS/Joshua Roberts

Attorney General William Barr on Sunday delivered to Congress his summary of Mueller’s confidential report on a 22-month investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. It marked a political victory for Trump but Democrats are suspicious over Barr’s handling of the issue of obstruction and are demanding he give them a full copy of Mueller’s report by next week. They also want him and the FBI to brief them on the findings.

The “Gang of Eight” — Republican and Democratic leaders in Congress and top members of its intelligence committees — are usually the first lawmakers to be briefed on sensitive intelligence and law enforcement matters but they have not been told of any briefing plans either, the sources said.

Not true. Barr said he'd be ready in a few weeks. There is a million some pages to review! Be reasonable Be patient.

Barr is defending a traitor. Donald Trump: 'Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.'

What’s the hold up?

Let him get through the report in the next few weeks and prepare a release in compliance with the law and then have him come in for hearings to explain. Even Trump wants him to release the information.

Gee, that’s so surprising...😂

Whitewashed just got a whole new meaning.

We’ll never see it. We’ve been let down by another indecisive prosecutor. From now until Trump leaves office, we’ll hear about their concocted report and none can prove otherwise. Trump’s faithful will apply their favorite adjective towards their opposition as “delusional”.

He’s a lackey that had his mind made up months ago. Mags creaming their shorts over this guy’s 4-page editorial are ridiculous now and will be downright hilarious in the not too distant future.

This is all planned out, and it's a chess match between him and Mueller as to next steps.

Thanks for that reuters Don't worry. You'll be the first to know 😉

2 years of deceit. Time for the people to know the whole truth!

Barr is throwing away what little of a reputation he had left. Shame.

2 year's worth of investigation to go through, but let's rush this part

Well, except Congress's April 2 deadline.
