During Wednesday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing, special counsel Robert Mueller was caught in a lie regarding what prevented him from indicting President Trump.
The issue in question is specifically regarding the DOJ’s Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) decision in the Nixon, Watergate era that says a sitting president can’t be indicted.
Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) asked Mueller, “The reason you did not indict Donald Trump… is because of the OLC decision. Is that correct?”
