The plan of the investigators of the house to grill the former FBI director Robert Mueller has hit a hook.
The House Oversight Committee should make Müller appear in front of the committee on Tuesday as part of the examination of the house Jeffrey Epstein. However, Fox News Digital explained that the legislator “learned that Mr. Müller has health problems that prevent him from saying it from saying it.”
“The committee intends to withdraw its summons,” said the source.
Mueller was one of many remarkable personalities, including the Clintons, the chairwoman of the supervisory committee James Comer, R-Ky.
He would have been the second witness who personally appeared in front of the house supervisory supervisory committee after the former Attorney General Bill Barr had done this last month.
His deposition closed doors should visit at least a few legislators on both sides, whereby the examination in an otherwise very split era for the congress was supported so far.
Mueller was recently examined in the headlines for his role as a special consultant whether Russia interfered in favor of the President in 2016 Donald Trump.

This investigation, which Trump himself did not find to have committed misconduct, saw 34 people charged and eight convictions or guilty requests – including several people who were connected to the president.
It was expected that House’s investigators were immersed in Müller’s time as director of the FBI. He led the office under the former President George W. Bush and Barack Obama from September 2001 to September 2013.

“When they were FBI director, Mr. Epstein’s FBI examination led to a deputy US lawyer in the southern district of Florida, who prepared an indictment against Mr. Epstein in 2007,” wrote Comer.
“Next year, however, Mr. Epstein guilty of two prostitution crimes in front of the state of Florida, and in return he and his co -consapers received immunity from federal persecution by non -priority agreement.”

It is not clear how much a role Müller would have had in this agreement. Alexander Acosta, the former Trump Labor Secretary and US lawyer in Florida, who has completed himself for the deal, sorses a voluntary transcribed interview later this month with the House Oversight Committee.

Other figures that could also appear after Müller are the former FBI director James Comey, the former Attorney General Loretta Lynch and the former couple Bill and Hillary Clinton.
