Pressure: House to demand release of Mueller report due to 'overwhelming public interest'
by Pete Kasperowicz

The House next week will send another signal to special counsel Robert Mueller that he needs to release his final report on President Trump's alleged collusion with Russia.
Democratic leaders have scheduled a vote on a resolution from House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., and other committee chairmen that calls for the public release of Mueller's final report. It also calls on the Justice Department to release his final report to Congress.
"[T]he need for transparency is most pronounced with regard to investigations that involve the President or individuals associated with his campaign," the resolution said.
"[T]he allegations at the center of Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation strike at the core of our democracy, and there is an overwhelming public interest in releasing the Special Counsel’s report to ensure public confidence in both the process and the result of the investigation," it added.

My hunch is this could backfire. The Mueller investigation may show Clinton collusion.

Never ask for anything unless you know what you are going to get. The House Rats better be careful.

Better to release the whole thing than let House Democrats get it in private and then selectively leak in order to spin.

It does seem like the rats want to talk only about Mueller. That is the point of this useless resolution. Keeping the report in the news when there is no new news from Mueller to salivate over.
If the rats are not going to work with the GOP Senate and President Trump on anything, then useless resolutions and partisan investigations are all they have to work with.

Demand all you want, Waddler. It's not up to you because Mueller doesn't work for you, he works for the DoJ.
I happen to think it's in the President's best interest to release it all and let the chips fall on the Rats' heads.

And leak they will.

their petulance will doubtless be rewarded in manner they cant begin to imagine.

Considering all the hush-hush reindeer games Mueller plays with the court system, it would be ironic if the report never saw the light of day.
