Investigators on Robert Mueller s team are vexed at Attorney General William Barr s characterization of the special counsels report. They say Barr failed to adequately portray the findings of their inquiry, The New York Times reported on Wednesday.

Hours later, The Washington Post corroborated this account , reporting that some members of Muellers team had expressed frustration at the attorney generals March 24 summary to Congress in which he absolved President Donald Trump of any obstruction of justice.

A number of special counsel investigators told associates that the evidence they gathered on the question of obstruction was both alarming and significant, the Post reported. The paper also quoted a person familiar with the probe as saying the evidence was much more acute than Barr suggested.
