Robert Mueller to meet with Trump's private lawyers: Report
by Diana Stancy Correll | Dec 15, 2017, 6:06 PM
Special counsel Robert Mueller, who is spearheading the federal Russia inquiry, is scheduled to meet with President Trump’s private lawyers as early as next week, according to a new report.
Those familiar with the matter are optimistic the meeting has greater significance than previous meetings between the Mueller team and Trump’s lawyers because it follows reports that the probe has finished interviewing White House staff, CNN reported Friday. Mueller’s team has not initiated an interview with Trump or Vice President Mike Pence.
Although it’s still possible Mueller could request additional documents and more interviews, Trump’s legal team, headed by John Dowd and Jay Sekulow, remains optimistic that Mueller’s probe is in the final stages and will conclude in the near future. They consider the meeting an opportunity to gain more insight into what Mueller plans to do next in the investigation.
