The event will be streamed online and later distributed as a podcast.
From noon Thursday, more than 20 Democratic representatives will read out the entire redacted Mueller report at the Capitol. And organizer Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon thinks that number is likely to grow.
Richards confirmed a podcast-style recording of the reading will be made available free of charge on streaming platforms such as SoundCloud and Spotify. A redacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller’s 448-page report into alleged Russian interference into the 2016 election was published April 18, 2019, following the release of a controversial summary letter by Attorney General William Barr on March 24.
Scanlon suggested the live reading will help shed light on the details of the report that many will not have read in full. “We’ve been saying for weeks that if you think there was no obstruction and no collusion, you haven’t read the Mueller report. So the ongoing quest has been, ‘How do we get that story out there while we are waiting for the witnesses to come in?’" Scanlon told the Post.
A vocal critic of Barr’s handling of the report, Nadler said the U.S. was in a “constitutional crisis” on May 8, after the attorney defied a subpoena to share the full, unredacted report. Numerous high profile Democrats have called for the unredacted document to be shared with Congress, but their efforts have faced resistance, including from Trump himself.
