Today in one sentence: Mueller's report is more than 300 pages long and contains "lots and lots of footnotes"; Barr is expected to miss the House Democrats' April 2nd deadline for him to turn in the full Mueller report to Congress; Trump and Republicans in Congress are calling Adam Schiff to resign; and Trump accused two former FBI employees of having "committed treason" for investigating possible Russian links to his campaign.

1/ Robert Mueller’s report is more than 300 pages long and contains “lots and lots of footnotes,” raising questions about how Attorney General Bill Barr was able to release his four-page summary of “principal conclusions” two days after Mueller turned it in. Democrats have demanded that Barr make the full report and “all of the underlying evidence” public. Nancy Pelosi called Barr’s summary “condescending” and “arrogant.” The Justice Department, meanwhile, has said it will release a version of the Mueller report in “weeks not months,” but sensitive information will not be included.

2/ Barr is expected to miss the House Democrats’ April 2nd deadline for him to turn in the full Mueller report to Congress. Democrats are expected to subpoena the Justice Department for the full report if Barr misses the deadline. Barr also suggested that it will likely take weeks to redact the report. House Judiciary Committee chairman, Jerry Nadler, said Barr “wouldn’t commit” to releasing the report to Congress without redactions, but did agree to testify to the committee “reasonably soon.” (Washington Post / Bloomberg / The Guardian)

3/ Trump and Republicans in Congress are calling Adam Schiff to resign after Mueller’s report did not conclude that the Trump campaign conspired with Russia to influence the 2016 election. Trump accused Schiff of having “spent two years knowingly and unlawfully lying and leaking” and should therefore “be forced to resign from Congress!” Schiff insists that “undoubtedly there was collusion” and vowed that the House Intelligence Committee will continue to look into the counterintelligence aspects of Mueller’s investigation.

  • Trump accused two former FBI employees of having “committed treason” for investigating possible Russian links to his campaign during the 2016 campaign. Peter Strzok was fired from the FBI after officials discovered he had been sharing anti-Trump texts with Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer and former member of the Mueller investigation, who he was having an affair with. Trump also promised to release the FISA warrants and related documents used by the FBI to investigate his campaign in full and unredacted in order to “get to the bottom” of how the Russia collusion narrative began.

  • A federal judge has ordered that the Justice Department and FBI turnover James Comey’s memos in full. Many of the memos have been released publicly, but some parts remain redacted.
