Brace Yourselves: The Mueller Probe May FINALLY Be Completed
During a press conference on Monday Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker said that Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election is coming to an end.
“The investigation is, I think, close to being completed, and I hope that we can get the report from Director Mueller as soon as possible,” Whitaker said. “I’ve been fully briefed, and I look forward to Mueller delivering the final report. Right now, the investigation is close to being completed…Fundamentally, the Mueller investigation has a very defined scope.” . . .

According to House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA), Whitaker’s remarks were inappropriate, clearly referencing Whitaker’s past comments on limiting Mueller’s authority:
An Acting Attorney General who refuses to follow the advice of ethics lawyers and recuse himself from an investigation in which he has shown a clear bias is the last person who should speak for the Special Counsel.
While the probe is ongoing, Mueller can speak for himself. https://t.co/7sy10bNcAF
