McConnell to declare ‘case closed’ on Russian collusion

Published May 7, 2019 11:26am ET



Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will urge Democrats to “stop endlessly relitigating” special counsel Robert Mueller’s two-year investigation into Russian collusion with the Trump campaign and urge them to “move on from partisan paralysis and breathless conspiracy theorizing.”

A GOP leadership aide said McConnell, R-Ky., will declare “case closed” in a Senate floor speech Tuesday morning and will chastise Democrats for refusing to accept Mueller’s conclusion that Trump did not collude with Russians to win the presidency.
