Interview

Congressman Biggs, you are up on the Hill. Are they committed to getting answers from Bob Mueller? I mean, one of the things that bothers me, too, about his report is not just the fact that he leaves out the $500,000 payment from a Russian bank to Bill Clinton, that's not in there at all, but also on the exculpatory evidence with obstruction. Donald Trump actually told Jim Comey, according to his own memos, said he wanted him to investigate people on the team who may have been involved this, does it sound obstruction to you? That is not in the report by the way.

REP. ANDY BIGGS, R-ARIZ.: Yes, no. It doesn't sound like obstruction. In fact, there wasn't any obstruction. I think Mr. Mueller knew it but his team was radicalized. Don't forget, he had a radical team that was conducting this investigation.

And so, they come out and I don't know Robert Mueller from Adam -- Fox, but I can tell you this: the reality is Mr. Mueller put out a report that is not a legal brief at all. He shouldn't have never done it, in the first place. The second of all, it is basically an opinion piece.

But what's going to happen, I think this is going to look like the Hope Hicks interview. That is - you know, you had Democrats reading or asking her to read direct quotes from the Mueller Report, and Hope Hicks say well yes that was my statement. That's what you're going to get when the Democrats go to Mueller.

You're not going to get anything new from the Democrats. In fact, Nadler's already said, Chairman Nadler has already said, hey we are going probably have him just read things. This is designed to keep up their narrative of something that happened that there was an obstruction of justice, that somehow - just like you heard in the debate last night, somehow the President is guilty of something.

There is nothing here and they know it. They can't get him on anything that is criminal, so they are going to just attack and try to sully his name with these consistent rumors that they have been putting out from day one.
