'This isn't oversight, this is now try-to-harass-the-president time,' Hannity said, reacting to Mueller's planned July appearances in front of Congress.
Fox News host Sean Hannity has reacted angrily to the news that former special counsel Robert Mueller will testify in front of Congress next month, claiming that continued investigation of crimes allegedly committed by President Donald Trump constitutes harassment.at his campaign events—said Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee and House Intelligence Committee had abused their power by subpoenaing the former FBI director to testify publicly on his almost two-year investigation.
"Americans have demanded to hear directly from the special counsel so they can understand what he and his team examined, uncovered, and determined about Russia's attack on our democracy, the Trump campaign's acceptance and use of that help, and President Trump and his associates' obstruction of the investigation into that attack," the statement read.
Barr's cover allowed Trump to falsely claim"total exoneration" of alleged collusion between his campaign and Russia, plus accusations that he obstructed justice by intentionally hampering investigations into his conduct. Nonetheless, Trump and his allies have been bullish in their dismissal of the investigation as a hoax, despite the fact that it produced indictments for 34 individuals and three Russian businesses. These led to seven guilty pleas and four people sentenced to prison.
