Hillary Clinton wants Congress to 'connect the dots' of the Mueller investigation, adding that lawmakers should be more aggressive in digging into alleged ties between Trump and the Russian government
Former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton wants Congress to "connect the dots" of the Russia investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller, saying in an interview that lawmakers on Capitol Hill should be more aggressive in digging into alleged ties between President Donald Trump and the Russian government.
The 2016 Democratic nominee — who once worked as an attorney for the House Judiciary Committee during the Richard Nixon impeachment inquiry — advocated more Congressional hearings to help the public piece together what's already been made publicly available about the investigation into a more digestible narrative.
Clinton said that during the Watergate investigation, Congressional hearings were instrumental to informing the press and public about the Nixon probe. She said Mueller's investigation is obscured not only be its secrecy, but also by legal jargon — like "obstruction of justice" — that may be unknown to many parts of the general public.
