details of allegations they were investigating. i do not think we will have long to wait. we are expecting that report imminently, probably within the next 20 minutes orso probably within the next 20 minutes or so and the prime minister will be in parliament arejust or so and the prime minister will be in parliament are just over an hour to give his take on things. this is a big moment, even if it is pared back. for months we have heard tory mps and cabinet ministers saying, wait for that report before deciding exactly what you think, make your mind up time is one that report drops. and there will be a lot of pressure on some conservative backbenchers who are sceptical about borisjohnson, to tell us what they really think today, to tell us whether there is enough in that report for them to make up their minds, do they think he should go, whether it has changed their mind and they are going to wait for the metropolitan police report comeback now. this is a big moment. the other thing a
eric: we are getting preview of highly-anticipated justice department inspector general s report into the origins of robert mueller s russia probe and alleged fisa abuses, michael horowitz found evidence that former lawyer falsified fisa document related to the surveillance of former trump campaign aide carter page, but the top ranks of fbi are spared what will this mean, what can we expect, john bussey is here, john, december 9th, the big day the report drops, what do you expect? that s right. saidi has a story right now that says the inspector general looked at everything that the fbi did, examined the origins of the inspection of the trump campaign and relations with russia and found that there was a legal basis for them pursuing,
robert mueller s special assistant over at the doj so good to see you. good to see you, brooke. let s play the when, when this happens again? when the mueller report drops, which could be any day now, what specifically will you be looking for? so what we will be looking for, we won t be able to see is because the mueller report is a confidential report to the attorney general so we will not actually get to see the mueller report. what we could get to see is barr s transmission of a summary of that report to congress. so in some sense we re making a lot to do about mueller s report contents, but we may never really see it. what i think we want to see is, is he, in fact, done? has he report to submit? is he telling the attorney general my investigation is over? that s what i m mostly looking to see where are we in the life of the mueller investigation. let s say when it drops, you
