Attorney General Bill Barr To Testify On Mueller Report Before House And Senate Judiciary Panels Next Week

Axios reports:

Attorney General Bill Barr will appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee on May 1 and House Judiciary Committee on May 2 to testify about special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, both panels have confirmed.

Democrats have accused Barr, the nation’s top law enforcement official, of playing defense for President Trump by spinning Mueller’s conclusions in a favorable light 3 weeks before the public was able to view a redacted version of the special counsel’s report.
