Report: The White House Is Very Nervous About The Mueller Report Going Public
On Sunday's ABC This Week panel, Jon Karl talked about the imminently forthcoming release of the Mueller Report. Although it will be undergoing heavy redactions by Bill Barr, a good amount of potentially non-public information will be contained. Media pundits have long speculated that a lot of previously unknown, and possibly damaging information, regarding obstruction of justice could be released.
Although Barr's letter from just a few weeks led to Trump screaming (i.e., tweeting) that he was COMPLETELY EXONERATED, those statements have lost their oomph as the White House and Trump's personal Roy Cohn, Bill Barr...I mean, the "Attorney General of the United States who is definitely not working overtime to protect Donald Trump", have tried to delay the release.
Jon Karl broke some news today when he stated that the White House has been briefed on the Mueller Report (despite Trump's denial that he hasn't seen the report), although it was in "broad brush strokes" on the "logistics and timing of the release." He also states that the White House will not invoke Executive Privilege (Sure Jan gif dot com).
