Washington • Attorney General William Barr plans to spend the weekend reviewing special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on his investigation into possible obstruction of justice by President Donald Trump and Russia’s interference in the 2016 election, a senior Justice Department official said Saturday, indicating it would be at least another day until the probe’s findings would be shared with Congress.
While the White House, Congress and the country awaited word of the findings, Barr and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein huddled at the Justice Department, reading and assessing Mueller's work alongside key advisers.
"They're working basically hand in hand," said the official, who like others spoke on the condition of anonymity to share general insights about the attorney general's process.
