Former special counsel Robert Mueller has arrived on Capitol Hill to testify before two House panels about his Russia investigation.
Mueller was flanked by police officers in the Rayburn House Office Building as he headed toward a hearing room Wednesday morning. Senior Mueller aide Aaron Zebley also was in the hearing room.
Mueller is testifying before the House Judiciary Committee and the House intelligence committee.
Mueller’s investigation shadowed Donald Trump’s presidency for nearly two years and officially concluded in March, when he submitted his 448-page report.
The nation has heard the former special counsel speak only once, for nine minutes in May, since his 2017 appointment.
Mueller has expressed his reluctance to testify and said he won’t go beyond what’s in his report.
Trump has called Mueller’s investigation a “witch hunt.”
