Lindsey Graham asked Mueller if he’d like to testify about any 'misrepresentation” by William Barr concerning a phone call they had on the special counsel’s report
Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham on Friday asked Robert Mueller if he’d like to testify about any “misrepresentation” by Attorney General William Barr concerning a phone call they had about the special counsel’s report.
“Please inform the Committee if you would like to provide testimony regarding any misrepresentation by the Attorney General of the substance of the phone call,” Graham wrote to Mueller in a letter dated Friday.Earlier this week, news outlets reported that Mueller sent a March letter to Barr expressing disagreement with the way Barr handled the release of his report, specifically that Barr’s four-page summary “did not fully capture the context, nature, and substance” of Mueller’s report.
In a subsequent phone call, Mueller voiced concern that the media misrepresented the report’s investigation into whether President Donald Trump committed obstruction of justice. During his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee Wednesday, Barr said that Mueller did not dispute the accuracy of his four-page summary to Congress.
