Nadler to DOJ: Don’t hide evidence of Trump wrongdoing

House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler on Sunday called for special counsel Robert Mueller’s report to be released publicly along with any underlying evidence, arguing that doing less could be considered a “cover-up.”

Mueller did not drop new indictments as he wrapped up his nearly two-year-long probe, but Nadler said President Donald Trump might have been shielded from criminal indictments because of the office he holds. If that is the case, Nadler said, Congress will hold him accountable instead.“If the president cannot be indicted … as a matter of law, then the only way to hold the president accountable is for Congress to consider it and act, if warranted,” Nadler said on “Fox News Sunday.

“Congress can only do that if it has the information,” he added. “For the department to take the position that ‘we’re not going to give information because he’s not indicted, like a normal person who’s not indicted because of lack of evidence,’ is equivalent to a cover-up and subverts the only ability to hold the president accountable.”

He also said it was possible that there had been abuses of power that did not technically constitute a crime. On another interview on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Nadler said his committee would use subpoenas, if necessary, to continue gathering information, but he said they’d first try to negotiate.We’re hosting a live chat on Reddit with former federal investigators who worked on some of the biggest cases since Watergate and our senior reporter, Darren Samuelsohn.

Nadler is right!

investigate jerry nadler for HIS crimes and cover ups

Indeed.... give us the entire unredacted report, with all the background data. So, we can more easily issue indictments against those that KNEW this was a lie, but engaged anyway, in an attempt at an insurance policy. Prosecute EVERYONE involved, all the way to the Oval Office.

Why don’t they investigate Hillary and the Russian collusion?

As he talks about protecting rule of law and institutions, he ACTUALLY questions the SAME by ignoring the sacred Mueller report abd tossing around terms like cover up

Blah blah blah!

Democrats can't handle being wrong or losing. They never move on. Bad losers and even bad winners. Hopefully in 2020 they'll be back in minority.

Dems have wasted no time in suggesting false narratives. In a few days, half of the country's ignorant Democrats will swear that there's a 'cover-up', and believe it for the rest of their sorry lives.

Desperation

no worries, it’ll be released as everyone at your network runs in meltdown mode

Jerrold is a dry socket....

Is Nadler a sock puppet? He could be, right?

....THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO SEE ..THE MUELLER REPORT... NOT..NOT..THE BARR REPORT !!!!.... ...'IF YOU HAVE 'NOTHING' TO HIDE HIDE NOTHING...YOU COOPERATE' DR. PHILL

What if Mueller's report identifies evidence that hurts prominent Democrats? Will they still seek the WHOLE report to be released? Not sure if Mueller cared about Democrats' links to Russia, but if he did and put it in his final report, a double-standard will exist. No doubt.

This is why Mueller should have done a full investigation on both sides. Democrats clearly are truly currupt. Now he is being threatened

Go for it, RepJerryNadler!!

Hope hes putting lots of salt on his food?

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha............ QUICK!!! Someone get Brennan or Bill Crystal. They both have assured us many times over that Trump will be indicted.

Let’s release all the docs on fisa, obama and Clinton spying on trump campaign, payment for Russians to dig dirt on trump.

Who the hell are you nadler that you get to define what a coverup is. I can define a coverup for you, let’s start with Benghazi, 9/11/2012. That would be a good start.

Hahahahahaha.....there is a law that regulates what can be released....

RepJerryNadler why dont you pay attention to the enemies within sitting right in YOUR house?!

Let it go.. Just let it go.. You only embarrass yourselves further.. Give up.. Just WalkAway 😂😂😂

Will that include all the background and paperwork, etc associated with the FISA abuse? Hmmm

Nadler is simply beside himself with rage right now. lol

US Atty: I considered taping Trump, DOJ was right to consider itIn a news-making interview, former Chief prosecutor at the Southern District of New York, U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, who was fired by President Trump in 2017, reveals to Ari Melber that he backs Mueller’s boss, Rod Rosenstein, who reportedly talked about secretly taping Pres. Trump. Bharara recounts new details about how his office also considered taping Trump when the President took the unusual step of personally calling Bharara, who concluded there was reason to have “mistrust” towards Trump. The interview is Bharara’s first day on MSNBC since he last spoke with Melber, in 2015. Deep State is still very active. Amazing interview! One of the best interviews MSNBC has ever hosted. Thanks TheBeatWithAri and PreetBharara .

Nadler encouraged by document response; thousands from BannonRep. Jerry Nadler, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, talks with Rachel Maddow about the results of the committee's prodigious document request, and why the American people deserve answers to the questions about Donald Trump regardless of whether Attorney General Bill Barr withholds some of the Mueller report. More BS What about the theft of an election? Damn right. And the GOP used to believe this too, until it became politically advantageous to stop being Americans.
