No details of the content of the report have yet been made public.<\/p>\n<p>Barr notified the leaders and ranking members of the House and Senate Judiciary committees, Democrats Jerrold Nadler and Dianne Feinstein, and Republicans Lindsey Graham and Doug Collins, in an official Department of Justice letter. Barr wrote that he is reviewing the confidential report and \u201cmay be in a position to advise you of the Special Counsel\u2019s principal conclusions as soon as this weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Under the terms of the Special Counsel regulations, the Attorney General is required to notify Congress of any proposed action in Mueller\u2019s report that he has vetoed because it is \u201cso inappropriate or unwarranted under established Departmental practices that it should not be pursued.\u201d Barr wrote that there are no such instances in the Special Counsel\u2019s investigation.<\/p>\n<p>The Special Counsel law also gives Attorney General Barr discretion in determining how much of the report will be shared with Congress and the public. He wrote that he is \u201ccommitted to as much transparency as possible\u201d and that this determination will be made in the course of his review.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after Mueller made his submission, NBC News reported that an unnamed senior justice department official confirmed that there are no sealed or further criminal indictments coming out of the probe. This means that no one in the Trump campaign has or will be charged with carrying out any criminal act in conjunction with Russia.<\/p>\n<p>House Intelligence&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wsws.org\/en\/articles\/2019\/03\/23\/muel-m23.html\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Special Counsel Robert Mueller delivers Russia probe inquiry report By Kevin Reed 23 March 2019 The special counsel Robert Mueller delivered a report late Friday to Attorney General William Barr bringing to a conclusion a 22-month investigation into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 US elections.
