Special counsel Robert Mueller’s report will be released on Thursday morning, a Justice Department spokesperson said.<\/p>\n
Democrats in Congress have been insisting on the release of the full report, but Attorney General William Barr has said that certain information — like grand jury material and information relating to other ongoing investigations — will be redacted from the document.<\/p>\n
Barr sent a letter to Congress late last month announcing the end of Mueller’s probe and outlining the core conclusions of the special counsel’s investigation, including a finding that the Trump campaign did not collude with Russia during the 2016 election.<\/p>\n
The attorney general\u00a0also wrote in that letter that Mueller did not reach a conclusion on whether President Trump obstructed justice, but said that he and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein determined that the evidence was not sufficient to bring forward such a charge.<\/p>\n
Barr had said last week during his testimony before a House panel that the report would be released “within a week,” and told senators the next day that it would come out “next week.”<\/p>\n
The report’s release has been highly anticipated, as it’s expected to include the findings of Mueller’s 22 month-long investigation, as well as the evidence collected by investigators.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
