Statewide Iowa — Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley says it’s time for congress to “move on” from the Mueller investigation, drop the idea of impeachment and focus on other issues.
Grassley says the special counsel’s report “speaks for itself” — just as Special Council Robert Mueller said during a DC news conference.
Mueller announced Wednesday he was returning to the private sector. He said in the printed report that a justice department policy meant he could not indict a sitting president. Grassley disagrees.
Iowa’s other U.S. Senator, Joni Ernst, issued a written statement after Mueller’s news conference, emphasizing the investigation found “there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 presidential election,” but adding that congress must “focus on protecting our country from future attacks by Russia and other bad actors.”
