Republicans feel as vindicated as Democrats feel frustrated following Mueller's findings


(CNN) Congressional reaction to the summary of special counsel Robert Mueller's findings Sunday unsurprisingly split along party lines as Republicans saw complete vindication and exoneration of President Donald Trump, while Democrats felt frustrated and demanded the full report and supporting documentation be sent to Capitol Hill, where investigations into the President continue. The Democratic chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Rep. Jerry Nadler of New York, who is leading one of the several ongoing investigations into Trump, said he would soon call on Barr to testify before his committee to explain his actions. "Special Counsel Mueller worked for 22 months to determine the extent to which President Trump obstructed justice. Attorney General Barr took 2 days to tell the American people that while the President is not exonerated, there will be no action by DOJ," Nadler said in one of a series of rapid-fire tweets he sent in the minutes after Barr sent a letter to the Hill outlining Mueller's report. As he prepared to board Air Force One with Trump in Florida to fly back to Washington, a cheerful Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham applauded the long-sought findings.
