Congress prepares for 'reticent' witness Robert Mueller.
Facing pointed questions about a hot-button government investigation in June 2013, then-FBI Director Robert Mueller didn't budge.
"[Mueller] never gives a 10-word answer when a one word answer will do," one senior Democratic aide said."He does not volunteer information." Mueller's report said his investigation did not find sufficient evidence of criminal conspiracy or coordination between the Trump campaign and the Russian government -- or individuals with ties to the Russian government -- but did not determine whether Trump obstructed justice, nor did the report"exonerate" the president.
"Russia attacked, Trump welcomed it, and Trump covered it up," Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., a member of the House Intelligence and Judiciary Committees, told ABC News."If this comes across as a 'Law and Order' episode, rather than giving people a Ph.D. in Russian studies, that is a success.
