“The law cares about what is done, not what is thought or what is said,” said Starr, the independent counsel who investigated President Bill Clinton.
Ken Starr, the independent counsel who investigated President Bill Clinton, said that Robert Mueller’s Russia report showed that Donald Trump went to the “brink” on obstruction of justice but didn't commit a crime.
“The evidence we obtained about the President’s actions and intent presents difficult issues that would need to be resolved if we were making a traditional prosecutorial judgement,” the report read. “At the same time, if we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we would state so.”
The special counsel also laid out in his report the argument for Congress to take up the issue of obstruction of justice, writing: “Congress has authority to prohibit a president’s corrupt use of his authority in order to protect the integrity of the administration of justice.”
