Rudy Giuliani, a personal attorney to President Donald Trump, said he wants Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, to have full access to special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on the Russia investigation. The former New York City mayor claimed, however, that Attorney General William Barr, whom Trump nominated to lead the Justice Department in December, has final say on which parts of the report will be released to the public. “I would like [Nadler] to get all the information,” Giuliani said during an appearance Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “Everything. But I can’t control that and I can’t change the law. The attorney general has a difficult job.”

Barr sent a letter to the House Judiciary Committee on March 24, outlining what he believes are the key findings from Mueller’s probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election and whether Trump obstructed justice. In his letter to the committee, Barr said Mueller’s report did not determine that Trump’s campaign colluded with Russia. Barr also noted that with respect to obstruction of justice, Mueller said his report neither concluded Trump committed a crime nor did it exonerate him. Nonetheless, Trump has repeatedly claimed “total exoneration” in the wake of Mueller’s investigation. Investigators on Mueller’s team believe Barr’s characterization of the special counsel’s report “failed to adequately portray the findings of their inquiry,” The New York Times reported Wednesday. Some told associates that evidence gathered on the question of obstruction was “alarming and significant.”﻿ Nadler, who appeared on “Face the Nation” minutes before Giuliani on Sunday, called Barr “biased” and dismissed the conclusions drawn in his letter to the House Judiciary Committee. “He is someone who is an agent of the administration, is a political appointee of the president, whose interests he may very well be protecting here,” Nadler said. He called on Barr to hand over Mueller’s full report to the committee without any redactions and said it’s not up to the attorney general to decide what Congress can and cannot see.
