Senate Probe Went Further Than Mueller

August 18, 2020 at 8:52 pm ET By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

“It underscores the degree to which the 996-page report goes further than the Mueller investigation in some of its findings, as well as the explosive nature of some of the revelations about Manafort and other top Trump campaign officials.”
