Rep. Adam Schiff on Sunday predicted special counsel Robert Mueller will testify before Congress about his Russia investigation as Democrats and the White House square off over subpoenas.
Schiff, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said it’s Congress’ “first priority” to have Mueller appear now that a copy of his redacted report has been made public.
“I am convinced it’s going to happen. That is inexorable. The American people have every right to hear what the man who did the investigation has to say and we now know we certainly can’t rely on the attorney general who misrepresented his conclusions,” the California Democrat said on ABC’s “This Week.” “So he is going to testify.”
He also floated again the idea of using Congress’ power of “inherent contempt” to fine or even jail administration officials who defy subpoenas to testify — although he acknowledged the maneuver would be tied up in the courts.

As long as he doesnt have to take questions from Republicans.
Mueller , “page 22”
Mueller ,”page 78”
Mueller ,”page 90”
I say he won’t appear. Tell the damn public to read the report. This isn’t kindergarten. And if you can’t read???? You shouldn’t be voting.
Good, there is very little downside and immense upside. If the Pub Senators do their homework they should be able to absolutely destroy him.
I can’t wait for Nunes and Gohmert to get him under oath.
Barr knows Mueller better than Schiffty knows anyone. Put Mueller on the stand.
The contrast between Schiff, Booker and Rand Paul was striking.
Rand Paul was clearly the winner.
Schiff was clearly the loser.
The ABC person interviewing Booker referred to Medicare and clearly is clueless about Medicare. I got the impression that Booker was most intense on not embarassing the ABC interviewer by exposing the ignorance of the ABC idiot.
What annoys me the most is his comment; “The American people have every right to hear what the man who did the investigation has to say and we now know we certainly can’t rely on the attorney general who misrepresented his...” .............The American people also had a right to have a couple of Republican’s on Mueller’s staff. These freakin Inquisition folks were given too much authority. I hope I am not alone as an Independent who has had enough of their whining and BS. The meek Republican reps will not inherit the Congress ever. Why is it its always the left that can say “Move on”, and when it’s their turn, the Right snores????
Schiff is trying to cover for why he's not issuing Deep State Mueller a subpoena.
“If the Pub Senators do their homework they should be able to absolutely destroy him.“
You think they are on your side? Are you nuts?
If the Republicans supported the President, the Democrats wouldn’t have taken the House in 2018. If the Republicans supported the President, Mueller would t have lasted a month. If the Republicans supported the President, the wall would be finished.
Stop talking about the “Pubbies” like they were your friends. They are far from it.
I “predict” that schiff-for-brains is King Nitwit.
I agree!
This is all about posturing so the dems can blame the repubs when Mueller doesn't testify.
schiff is running around like a chicken with his head cut off..i truly hope they have him on leaking or worse
This is soooo last month.
Wasn’t he telling us that the president would be indicted and impeached?
“This is soooo last month.”
Meaning Dems are trying put legs on a story that is legless.
