Eyes turned to Capitol Hill on Wednesday as former special counsel Robert Mueller appeared in front of members of Congress. Mueller testified to both Democrats and Republics about his report that determined Russia interfered with the 2016 election but President Trump was not involved. Local political expert Rob Alexander weighed in on the hearings saying we didn't actually learn many new things. Mueller declined to comment on many questions, rarely straying from his report. Alexander does see this hearing as a boost for both parties heading into 2020 elections.

Special counsel Robert Mueller spoke publicly for the first time in two years, after starting his investigation into Russian involvement in the 2016 presidential election. In the 10 minute statement, Mueller says there were "multiple, systematic efforts" to interfere in the 2016 presidential election and that "deserves the attention of every American". Mueller detailed that meddling in an indictment last year, charging 12 Russian military intelligence officers with hacking Democratic email accounts.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report on his investigation into Russian collusion was released to the public today.

His findings were previously released that he found no evidence that President Trump or his campaign had colluded with Russian officials during the 2016 election. One of the more prominent pieces in the redacted report is Mueller states there were instances Trump could have been charged with obstruction, but his aides didn't follow through on his orders. In the 400 page report, it stated Trump's response upon the announcement of the investigation and Mueller portrayed the president as 'rattled.'
