The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.WASHINGTON — House Democrats are on a collision course with Attorney General William Barr as it appears increasingly unlikely he will comply with their demands to see Robert Mueller's full unredacted report — let alone the evidence that backs it up.
Staffers also said Barr acknowledged making a mistake by speaking extensively with the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Lindsey Graham, a Republican of South Carolina, over dinner before he had spoken with Nadler. They'll insist there's no reason the president could not be charged with obstructing the investigation — making the point that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein repeatedly charged defendants with obstruction even if he didn't charge them with an underlying crime.
