House Republicans, who demanded access to raw investigative material in the Hillary Clinton email probe and internal deliberations about the start of the Russia probe, have changed their tune about the need for DOJ transparency ahead of Mueller’s report
WASHINGTON ― House Republicans, who demanded access to extensive raw investigative material in the Hillary Clinton email probe and internal deliberations about the start of the Russia investigation, have changed their tune about the need for Justice Department transparency ahead of the expected release of the gist of Robert Mueller’s special counsel report.
“It’s not the Department of Justice’s job to give” Rep. Jerry Nadler and the House Judiciary Committee that he chairs “what they want [to] go off on a purely partisan investigation that could lead towards impeachment,” Rep. Doug Collins , the committee’s ranking GOP member, said on Fox News on Sunday.
“Typically, prosecutors do not release information that would be harmful to the innocent,” Meadows said. “We need to make sure that we protect the innocent here.” Ken Starr, the independent counsel who dogged President Bill Clinton, wrote a piece in The Atlantic calling on Mueller to remain quiet and not produce a public report.
