The special counsel’s nearly two-year-long probe concluded without finding adequate evidence to show that officials with Trump’s 2016 campaign aided Russian attempts to interfere with the election
Mueller’s investigation, now finished, isn’t the only game in town for Trump. Federal prosecutors in New York are examining the president’s inauguration and campaign spending. States have active inquiries into Trump’s real estate projects and personal finances. The summary document that Barr released Sunday left lawmakers with little in the way of a roadmap as they do their own homework on the question of impeachment.
Mueller’s investigators have been working under those same Clinton-era rules and faced no explicit mandate to tell Congress about any possible Trump crimes they found. Essentially, for all the work the special counsel just did to examine the president for possible obstruction of justice, experts say the onus is on lawmakers to decide whether they want to build their own record to try and remove Trump.
Nadler is working through the thousands of pages of documents from Trump aides and associates that arrived after an initial batch of 81 letters went out earlier this month that seek to duplicate the record Mueller has. Nadler and the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Adam Schiff , have also said they’ll try to subpoena the bulk of Mueller’s investigative work.
“You can call someone ‘Individual 1’ all you want,” said James Trusty, a former federal prosecutor and friend of Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general. “You don’t have to be a Navajo code talker to decipher who that is.”
