House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-NY) is confident special counsel Robert Mueller will testify before Congress well before the fall.

“Well, we’re carrying on conversations with him, and he will come in, and if we have to subpoena him, we will,” he told MSNBC’s Ari Melber on Tuesday evening.

When asked if it would be by the end of the summer, Nadler said, “I think it would be way before that,” but wouldn’t say if it would occur before the end of June.

Mueller made it abundantly clear that he is not interested in testifying before Congress, but lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are interested in hearing from him.

    Analytics firm finds network of over 200 accounts sharing ‘news’ of old incidents
    https://www.theguardian.com/media/2019/jun/12/fishwrap-fake-news-campaign-recycles-old-news-of-terror-attacks
    The accounts shared “news” about incidents such as the 2015 Paris terror attacks but with the date and other context removed in an apparent attempt to make the news go viral a second time.
    “There are two candidates here,” Truvé said. “It’s either a state-sponsored misinformation campaign, or it’s a domestic alt-right thing, because it is focused on terror events to do with Muslims. Or it could be what we call ‘operational preparedness’ – they’re up, active, creating history for themselves and their accounts, and then they want to use it in the future to spread original fake news.”
