Washington (CNN)House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler on Sunday said Robert Mueller's report presents "very substantial evidence" that President Donald Trump is "guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors" -- an impeachable offense.
"We have to ... let Mueller present those facts to the American people, and then see where we go from there, because the administration must be held accountable," Nadler, whose committee would lead impeachment proceedings, said on "Fox News Sunday."
Mueller, the former special counsel for the Department of Justice and former director of the FBI, will testify before Congress on July 24 after House Democrats issued a subpoena for his appearance.
Earlier this year, Mueller concluded a nearly two-year-long investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Democrats are deeply divided on whether to pursue an impeachment inquiry, and Mueller's public testimony may provide an opportunity for the party to unify and decide whether impeachment proceedings should go forward or not. More than 80 House Democrats have called for starting an impeachment inquiry into the President -- the first step in a lengthy process, but House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Nadler have so far resisted the pressure to open an inquiry. Behind the scenes, Nadler has lobbied Pelosi to open an inquiry.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff said Sunday most Americans haven't read the dense 448-page Mueller report. Schiff said on CBS "Face The Nation" that the report contains "a pretty damning set of facts," and said, "Who better to bring them to life than the man who did the investigation himself." "We want the people to hear it directly from him," Schiff said.
Mueller said in a rare and remarkable public statement in May his investigation could not clear Trump of obstruction of justice..."

“very substantial evidence” and CNN don’t mix.
Only if done in the alley.
How come they didnt say Without offering any evidence Like they say when Trump says or makes unsubstantiated allegations?
The Republic already lost. We all are merely grasping at a straw swirling on the flood and Donald Trump is that straw.
I guess Schiff got worn out and they had to roll Nadler out.
I wonder long he will last.
High crimes?
The only high crimes I see is staple-gut sitting with his jacket open and his trousers pulled up to his chest.....ewwwww
very nice thanks
they do it well
however, from what i have seen, there is often a great deal of corruption required to advance in bureaucrappies
depending on the agency, a great deal of corruption
I can get the 'report' at Walmart.
Just which of the 448 pages should get lines highlighted in yellow?
I think it’s just another part of their strategy for keeping the impeachment media narrative front and center, and to put focus on Mueller’s “testimony”. Can’t let the Dim sheeple start thinking about anything else. Supposed evidence or crimes have nothing to do with it.
Save yourself a trip
House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler on Sunday said Robert Mueller's report presents "very substantial evidence" that Jerry Nadler (and many other Democrats) are "guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors."
Is Nadler beating a dead horse? Does Nadler know and understand law? Is Nadler mentally competent? What drugs is Nadler taking, and how do they effect his ability to carry out his duties?
Same thing Adam Shiff for brains has been saying since Trumps election. Shiff for brains likely told Nadler to say that, its become the libturds mantra.
Trump cannot be guilty of high crimes, he doesn’t even drink or smoke. He can’t be guilty of low crimes either, he is over six feet tall. Of course he might be guilty of orange crimes.
Jerry Nadler is all the proof I need that shape shifting lizard demons exist.
If Nadlers wrong President Trump should sue him till his new permanent abode is a card board box!
Not only evidence, not only substantial evidence, but very substantial evidence.
Yawn, call me when you have very very substantial evidence. I don’t get out of bed for less than that!
