Trump's DOJ tells Mueller to limit his congressional testimony
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Justice Department told former Special Counsel Robert Mueller on Monday he should limit his testimony before Congress this week to discussing his public report on the Russia probe.
Mueller completed in March his nearly two-year-long probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and possible obstruction of justice by President Donald Trump.A spokesman for Mueller, Jim Popkin, said no one at the Justice Department, Congress or the White House would review Mueller's statement before he delivers it on Wednesday.
Nadler's comments are significant because evidence of such crimes would be required if Democrats pursue impeachment proceedings against the president.Mueller said in a statement on May 29 he would not go beyond what was in the report in any testimony to Congress.
