Reports are indicating that special counsel Robert Mueller is writing his final report on the Russia probe. This could be a signal that the end is near for the investigation that has lasted nearly 2 years.
According to The Daily Caller:
Special counsel Robert Mueller has started writing his report of the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign, CNN reported Thursday.
It is unclear when Mueller started writing the report, which would be delivered to the Justice Department. The special counsel is waiting on President Donald Trump’s legal team to submit responses to a series of questions provided by prosecutors within recent months.
Trump’s lawyers expect to submit the responses by the end of the month, according to CNN’s sources. Trump has already begun reviewing his attorneys’ responses to those questions.
Mueller, a former FBI director, has been on the investigation for nearly 18 months. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein appointed him to the position on May 17, 2017, a week after the firing of James Comey as FBI director.
It still remains unclear if the results of the investigation will ever be released to the public. It is the Attorney General’s decision whether or not to make the findings public.
