- Judge grills Mueller team on claim Manafort lied
HEATED SHOWDOWN OVER MUELLER PROBE EXPECTED: After a tense back-and-forth between congressional Democrats and the Justice Department that included threats of no-shows and subpoenas, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler and the DOJ announced Thursday evening that Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker will testify before the panel, as scheduled, on Friday ... House Democrats had threatened to subpoena Whitaker's testimony about Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe. In response, Whitaker -- who previously had agreed to testify in the first place -- warned that he wouldn't show up unless lawmakers dropped the ultimatum he described as "political theater."
