On March 27, special counsel Robert Mueller sent a letter to Attorney General Bill Barr objecting to his March 24 characterization of his report into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Some Democrats, who have already questioned Barr's independence for his controversial rollout of the report, are calling on the attorney general to resign.
