House Democrats are huddling Saturday to strategize how to force Robert Mueller's potentially explosive findings into the open
Most lawmakers tempered their comments as they awaited word from Barr about what level of detail he intends to share with Congress and the public this weekend.
Coloring the debate is the news that Mueller is not recommending any new indictments along with his findings, a determination that has emboldened Trump who has long claimed the investigation was a "witch hunt." It's unclear whether that announcement also includes the prospect of sealed indictments or referrals by Mueller to other branches of the Justice Department and intelligence community.
Democrats, though, say Mueller's report may contain crucial counterintelligence information that shows links and alliances between Trump associates and Russian operatives, information that could be crucial to future efforts to protect American elections from foreign interference.
