WASHINGTON _ From President Donald Trump's signals to his former fixer about his upcoming _ and false _ congressional testimony to questions about whether senior administration officials committed perjury, Congress is repeatedly at the center of key parts of the Mueller report.
Special counsel Robert S. Mueller III and his team, after poring through reams of documents and conducting hours upon hours of interviews, did not find that Trump tried to withhold information from congressional investigators. What's more, the report repeatedly describes the president and top aides as concerned with the committees that were investigating them and collaborating on how to approach dealing with those panels.
For instance, then-New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, sometimes an adviser to Trump, recalls a June 2017 telephone call from the president about his desire to remove Mueller. Christie advised against it "because the President would lose support from Republicans in Congress if he did so," Mueller's team wrote. Here are three other Congress-related things you might have missed in the Mueller report.
