Article snippet: WASHINGTON — Attorney General William Barr and his team on Saturday pored over the highly anticipated report by special counsel Robert Mueller, a senior Justice Department official said, preparing to deliver the investigation’s “principal conclusions” to jittery lawmakers and President Trump as soon as Sunday. Barr and Rod Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general who appointed Mueller and oversaw much of his work, were cloistered inside the Justice Department debating how to present the findings. Mueller was not participating in the process, the official said. With little concrete information about the investigation circulating outside that tight circle, Washington was rife with speculation bouncing among reporters, lawmakers scattered across the country for their spring recess, and lawyers for people involved in the case. Trump himself remained uncharacteristically silent. After months attacking Mueller’s inquiry as a partisan “witch hunt,” he had yet to comment on its conclusion by Saturday evening. Spending the weekend at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Fla., Trump was surrounded by members of his family and a larger coterie of aides than usual. He spent much of Saturday on the golf course and had lunch with Kid Rock, according to people familiar with his plans. RELATED: The Mueller report has been released. What’s next?
