Top-Ranking Dems Says 'Mueller Report Doesn't Matter ‐ We Know There Was Collusion'
|
[Daily Caller] House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler confirmed Sunday that Congress will continue to investigate President Donald Trump regardless of the conclusions reached by special counsel Robert Mueller.
"We know there was collusion," Nadler insisted several times during an appearance on CNN’s "State of the Union" with guest host Dana Bash. "Why there’s been no indictments, we don’t know."
Nadler listed the Trump Tower meeting ‐ which has been the subject of numerous false reports ‐ and the way Trump "pressured the FBI to go easy, to stop investigating Flynn," and Trump firing Comey as evidence of the alleged "collusion."
Bash pointed out several times that none of that rose to the level of indictment from the Mueller team, but Nadler quickly shrugged it off.
"Well, there have been obstructions of justice, whether they are ‐ clearly, whether they are criminal obstruction is another question," Nadler explained. "But we have ‐ the special prosecutor is limited in scope. His job was limited in scope and limited to crimes. What Congress has to do is look at a broader picture. We are in charge ‐ we have the responsibility of protecting the rule of law, of looking at obstructions of justice, abuses of power, at corruption, in order to protect the rule of law so that our democratic institutions are not greatly damaged by this president."
