House Democrats are gearing up to subpoena Mueller’s full report without redactions, the underlying documents as well as docs from five former Trump aides in a potential series of legal showdowns.
Tuesday is the deadline House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-NY) set for the delivery of Mueller’s full report without redactions and since he will not be receiving the report, the Dems will hold a vote to authorize subpoena on Wednesday.
Instead of serving their constituents, House Democrats will use valuable resources and time to keep peddling the Trump-Russia collusion canard.
President Trump went on a tweetstorm Tuesday morning and ripped into “Shifty Adam Schiff” and Jerry Nadler.
TRUMP: “In 1998, Rep.Jerry Nadler strongly opposed the release of the Starr Report on Bill Clinton. No information whatsoever would or could be legally released. But with the NO COLLUSION Mueller Report, which the Dems hate, he wants it all. NOTHING WILL EVER SATISFY THEM!

TRUMP: “Robert Mueller was a God-like figure to the Democrats, until he ruled No Collusion in the long awaited $30,000,000 Mueller Report. Now the Dems don’t even acknowledge his name, have become totally unhinged, and would like to go through the whole process again. It won’t happen!”

TRUMP: “There is no amount of testimony or document production that can satisfy Jerry Nadler or Shifty Adam Schiff. It is now time to focus exclusively on properly running our great Country!”

Attorney General Bill Barr told Congress in a letter on Friday that the Special Counsel is assisting him with redactions prior to releasing the report to the public.
Barr released a 4-page summary of Mueller’s “principal conclusions” last weekend revealing the special counsel found that Trump did not conspire with the Kremlin during the 2016 presidential election.
No collusion and no obstruction of justice.
Mueller’s team interviewed 500 witnesses and issued 2800 subpoenas in an investigation that spanned over 675 days with a total of 19 high-powered lawyers.
Under special counsel rules, Mueller is to give Attorney General Bill Barr a confidential report.
Barr is redacting people’s names who were not indicted — the law protects people named in the report who have not been indicted — especially if it’s grand jury material.
“It’s a crime to release grand jury material without the approval of the courts and it’s even a crime to release it to Congress without the approval of the courts,” Alan Dershowitz said.
