It is obvious after today that there is going to be an epic battle coming up about the Mueller Report and who will be able to read it unedited and unreacted and untouched. I have one simple solution.
The House of Representatives can hire Robert Mueller to write a report for them on grounds of impeachment.
Problem solved.

He cannot write a report for them that includes anything that he found in his investigation. That information belongs to the DOJ and the AG decides who gets what.
So...a bribe? Yeah! Let's...hope...they...do! :lamo

Do you have evidence to present that prohibits Mueller from writing about his own experiences?
There’s probably an ethics problem with paying him, but I can’t see the issue with calling him to testify anyway.

They can call him to testify, but he cannot tell them anything about his report or the investigation unless the AG authorizes it.
Oh...he can talk about his "experiences" all he wants. He just cannot reveal anything that he found in the investigation.
But I don't think the Dems are all that interested in his experiences.
What would be the ethics problem? Lets say a publisher hired Meuller to write a book about his experiences in the Special Counsel office. Could he do that? I see no ethics problem unless he signed an exclusive non disclosure agreement with the AG office.

Put the shoe on the other foot. The Republican-controlled Senate pays Whittaker to come forward and he testifies that Mueller is corrupt. What is your reaction to that scenario?
The whole purpose of following ethics protocol is you keep the trust of the public. The public trust is why ethics rules exist.
Fine with me. And the Dems can ask him for the verifiable evidence that led him to that conclusion.
And what so called ethics rules would prevent Mueller from being hired by the House to write their own report on possible grounds for impeachment?
Honest question: is there a precedent for a House or Senate committee paying an individual to testify?
I believe that the House hires attorneys all the time and is normal matter for them. This would be be different if they want to hire him to write a report
.
If Mueller wants to testify about grounds for impeachment and evidence applicable, I see no reason to pay him for that as I would agree that is NOT the normal procedure.
They can call him to testify, but he cannot tell them anything about his report or the investigation unless the AG authorizes it.
Where are you getting these pontifications from?
Why not. Give us the evidence you are using to make these pontifications.
Are you basing this on something in the real world or you basing this on goblins that nobody else can see speaking to you?

Wow, you are terrified of the truth. You would support anything to protect Trump, even burying evidence.
If Trump and the DOJ try to pull this then he will be impeached. I doubt ordinary Americans would look favorably upon a coverup.
Actually it is called part of capitalism - the exchange of labor for money between two willing parties.

While educational, that article did not refer to Mueller being muzzled in the event that he is called to testify before the House.
One thing that the article does reiterate is that the AG must explain himself to Congress if he chooses to act against the Special Counsel's recommendations, and those recommendations would make it before Congress. The specter of criminality, corruption and a coverup would, once again, rear their ugly heads even more so with this administration than before.
