WASHINGTON/WEST PALM BEACH, Florida: The main findings could be released as early as Saturday of a 22-month investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller into Russia's role in the 2016 US election and any potential wrongdoing by President Donald Trump, whose legal woes go beyond the end of the inquiry.
Trump, who is spending the weekend at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, has not commented to reporters or taken to Twitter, one of his favorite ways of communicating, on the completion of the investigation that has cast a shadow over the Republican's two years in the White House.Trump had no public events scheduled on Saturday and was at his golf course in the morning.
Barr, who took office in February, was appointed by Trump after the president fired his predecessor Jeff Sessions in November. The White House has not received or been briefed on the report, spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said on Friday, adding that"we look forward to the process taking its course." Trump aides, including his former campaign chairman Paul Manafort, national security adviser Michael Flynn and personal lawyer Cohen, have already either been convicted or pleaded guilty to charges brought by Mueller.
Representative Steve Scalise, the No 2 House Republican and a strong ally of the president, expressed confidence the report would not find collusion with Russia.
