Instead, if Republicans focus on the investigation at all, it will be to accuse Democrats of overreach in their ongoing probes of the Trump administration. On Thursday evening, just hours after the Mueller report is released, Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) will convene her fourth town hall since taking office Jan. 3. Stevens countered that House Education Committee hearing “revealed some of your priorities to us,” in a not-so-veiled shot at DeVos’s focus on helping create more charter schools. Local coverage of the event never mentioned Trump, with nothing about Mueller or impeachment or any administration scandal. And, if Democrats and Republicans are right, that is likely to continue even after Barr releases the Mueller report.
