Schiff Says Democrats May Subpoena Mueller

February 24, 2019 at 11:23 am EST By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) told ABC News that House Democrats will subpoena special counsel Robert Mueller to testify before Congress if his report on Russian interference in the 2016 election is not made public.

Said Schiff: “Well, we will obviously subpoena the report. We will bring Bob Mueller in to testify before Congress. We will take it to court if necessary. And in the end, I think the Department of Justice understands they’re going to have to make this public. I think Attorney General William Barr will ultimately understand that, as well.”
