House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., opened Robert Mueller’s highly anticipated congressional hearings on Wednesday with a fiery rebuke of President Trump’s conduct during the special counsel’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
“The president’s behavior included, and I quote from your report, ‘public attacks on the investigation, non-public efforts to control it, and efforts in both public and private to encourage witnesses not to cooperate,’” Nadler said.
Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., the top Republican on the committee, used his own opening statement to note that Mueller did not find evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. Collins also said he was looking forward to hearing from Mueller about the origins of the probe, suggesting — as the president has done repeatedly — that FBI agents were out to get Trump.
