Despite special counsel Robert Mueller’s intention to avoid testimony, Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chairman Mark Warner (D-VA) still wants Congress to hear from him.
Speaking to reporters following Mueller’s statement on Wednesday, Warner said it was “important” that Mueller testify, but conceded the effort will likely be led by the House Judiciary Committee.
“What I’m hoping is we will, from the Intelligence Committee standpoint, get the underlying evidence, counterintelligence evidence,” he said. “Our investigation was not a law enforcement investigation. It was a counter intelligence investigation and we need to see those documents. I think we are starting to see those this week because I go back to where Mueller started his presentation and ended his presentation. The Russians intervened and they, or others, will be back.”

Hey bro, still waiting on the fireworks you promised.
Warner’s absolutely correct. and the House will hear from him.
Yep, better let the House do it. Rethugs in the Senate will make it a circus.
If for nothing else to ask the question:
There were 14 criminal cases still pending , did Mr. Barr close your investigation prematurely ? Please remember you are under oath?
