Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley Calls For Impeachment
Resume
Wednesday morning, Robert Mueller spoke at the Justice Department, announcing the end of his two-year appointment as special counsel overseeing the Russia investigation.
Mueller re-emphasized the report's findings, and explained that a longstanding Department of Justice policy prohibits the indictment of a sitting president, and therefore charging the president with a crime was not an option.
"The opinion says that the Constitution requires a process other than the criminal justice system to formally accuse a sitting president of wrongdoing," Mueller said.
In other words, ball's in your court, Congress.
