I don’t claim to be an expert. And I could be mistaken.
From my limited understanding the current rules regarding special counsel’s report goes something like this;
The special counsel gives his report to the attorney general. The attorney general then reviews the report and if there is charges against any individual including the president the attorney General Van turns that report over to Congress.
But the special counsel‘s report in total is never given directly to Congress. The only time it’s given to Congress is when there is chargeable offenses in the report.
So now we have Democratic leader ship morning to circumvent these rules and subpoena special counsel.
Can they legally do that when the established rules are that they cannot have info thatcthe AG doesn’t release to them?
