House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Sunday that Democrats would be willing to subpoena the Trump administration and go to court in order to see special counsel Bob Mueller’s final report, should the Justice Department not release that report to Congress.
“We will, obviously, subpoena the report,” Schiff told ABC “This Week” host George Stephanopoulos in an interview.
“We will bring Bob Mueller in to testify before Congress,” he continued. “We will take it to court if necessary. And in the end, I think the Department [of Justice] understands, they’re going to have to make this public.”
“I think Barr will ultimately understand that as well,” Schiff said, referring to newly-confirmed Attorney General William Barr.
Schiff later repeated that he would “absolutely” take the Trump administration to court in order to obtain Mueller’s report.
Prosecutors on Mueller’s team have reportedly begun contacting old bosses and returning to old jobs in a sign that the probe may be coming to an end.

Go ahead, Trump, do that high-larious thing again where you pretend to misspell his name. See what it gets you.
If Barr’s DoJ doesn’t want to follow their own guidelines by releasing the report (minus a few redactions), then the SDNY or other prosecutors should feel free to indict Trump whike he’s the sitting President.
“Subpoena” is the correct warning to issue.
Don’t be expecting to shame ANY of the current repugnican assemblage, admin. or congressional, about ‘tarnishing their legacy, blah blah blah’.
These slimeballs only care about POWER in the here and now, so fight them with ALL your POWER.
Obviously.
Of course, Lindsey will retaliate by ordering a Senate investigation of the Comet Pizza Parlor in order to expose the truth about the children in the basement who are helping Hillary sell uranium to the Russians while running a white slave ring for John Podesta.
