Is Robert Mueller’s Russia probe really close to being over? Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker says it is. He said he’s been “fully briefed” on the investigation and looks forward to getting the final report from the special counsel soon. But some Democrats in Congress aren’t so sure. They think Whitaker, who previously had been publicly hostile to the probe he’s now in charge of, is just spouting off Trump administration talking points. Whitaker made his comments right after bipartisan legislation was filed that would require Mueller to summarize his findings in a report to Congress and the public.
