Giuliani says Sessions should 'close' Mueller probe, as DOJ locks down 'scope memo'
President Trumps new attorney Rudy Giuliani said Thursday that Attorney General Jeff Sessions should close Special Counsel Robert Muellers probe a call that comes amid GOP pressure on Capitol Hill to find out whether the investigation has gone beyond its original mandate.
Giuliani, the former New York City mayor, criticized Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein in several interviews this week.
The basis of the case is dead, Giuliani said on Fox & Friends Thursday, claiming the push to uncover collusion with the Russians has turned up no evidence. Sessions should step in and close it.
Such a move would seem unlikely. Sessions recused himself from overseeing the Russia investigation due to campaign involvement. Rosenstein stepped in, and appointed Mueller to lead his own probe.
