Utah Rep. Chris Stewart wants Mueller to testify — but for very different reasons than Democrats

Washington • Rep. Chris Stewart says he wants special counsel Robert Mueller to testify before Congress but for far different reasons than Democrats.

The Utah Republican says Mueller should come before Congress to explain why he didn't investigate alleged spying of President Donald Trump's campaign, a dossier partially funded by Democrat Hillary Clinton's campaign and why Mueller continued the probe after he discovered there was no “conspiracy/collusion” that occurred.

Democrats are demanding that Mueller, a former FBI director who spent 22 months investigating Russia's interference in the 2016 election and any possible ties with the Trump team, appear before congressional committees and answer questions about his findings.
