In response to the closing of Robert Mueller's Russia investigation Friday, which yielded no new indictments, Real Time with Bill Maher used a portion of its Friday night episode to discuss the long-awaited report on meddling in the 2016 election.

Host Maher was joined by U.S. Representative Eric Swalwell, Republican pollster Kristen Soltis Anderson and former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Defense for Russia Evelyn Farkas.

At the top of their conversation, Maher gave his take on the report. "Democrats put too much trust in the Mueller report, because I don’t need the Mueller report to know he’s a traitor; I have a TV.”

Swalwell responded in agreement, "And people are on their way to jail, have gone to jail, there’s probably a farming out of other investigations, but yes, if you have a TV or a Twitter account you’ve already seen obstruction of justice.”

The politician then raised a point that he sees as critical to this issue: "But here’s what’s important is that the public sees the report contemporaneously with the president. He should not be allowed to edit, he should not be allowed to restrict or sanitize, and Mueller has to come before Congress and tell us its veracity.”

Maher asked whether Swalwell can make that happpen, to which he responded, "Yeah, we’re going to subpoena him."
