Countdown clock is on for Mueller conclusions

The nation is waiting to hear the findings of special counsel Robert Mueller’s just-concluded Russia investigation, and some answers could arrive soon.

Anticipation is growing that Attorney General William Barr might provide an update to lawmakers on Sunday, since no briefing was held on Saturday. He was spotted arriving at the Department of Justice offices around 10 a.m., and sources indicate that Barr could send a summary to Congress by the end of the day.

How much of the report will be released, and how soon it will make its way to the public, are top questions for both lawmakers and observers. Members of Congress speculated Sunday morning on the contents of the report and its meaning, and honed their arguments in advance of any release of information.

House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) appeared on three separate Sunday morning shows, leading the charge among Democrats in arguing that that the entire report, including the underlying evidence used, should be made public.

4. Suitable in terms of national security? Sure ... Release suitable to Trump Admin's Spin Team?

I'm guessing that one would be a 'no'.

He's not going to be seen as adjusting his findings in that way ... that'd be horrible optics, in fact.

5. WE should make it clear we will NOT stand for a summary.

I want EVERY word.

Massive uprising in the streets otherwise.

The only exception is for classified intel that would endanger a source and even THEN that info must be shown to the House Intel committee chairperson.
