Robert Mueller appeared before Congress to testify regarding his investigation into Russian election interference and potential obstruction of justice. Observers noted that Mueller appeared physically frail and struggled to answer questions, frequently referring back to the written report or claiming the subject was outside his purview. The presence of an FBI aide next to him was interpreted as a "security blanket" for a witness who seemed incapable of withstanding rigorous cross-examination.

Representative Ted Lieu attempted to lead Robert Mueller into admitting that the only reason Donald Trump was not indicted was due to the Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) opinion prohibiting the indictment of a sitting president. While Mueller initially agreed with Lieu's framing, he later issued a formal retraction during the afternoon session. Mueller clarified that the team did not reach a determination on whether a crime was committed, rather than being solely blocked by the OLC guideline.

The House Judiciary Committee passed a bill that would levy new fees on local radio stations for airing music.
