House Intel panel subpoenas Barr for full Mueller report, evidence

The House Intelligence Committee has issued a subpoena for documents and materials related to special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russia’s election interference.

The panel’s chairman, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), issued the subpoena to Attorney General William Barr on Wednesday evening, accusing the Justice Department of failing to negotiate with the committee or comply with the panel’s bipartisan requests for Mueller’s files.

The committee is demanding Mueller’s full unredacted report, the underlying evidence, and all counterintelligence and foreign intelligence materials generated in the course of the investigation. It set a May 15 deadline for the Justice Department to hand over the materials.
