Former Nixon White House Counsel John Dean as well as former U.S. attorneys and legal experts testified about lessons learned from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. At the top of the hearing, House Judiciary Committee Chair Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) announced that he had reached a deal with the Department of Justice for access to evidence of possible obstruction by President Trump. Later, Mr. Dean described parallels between the Watergate scandal under President Nixon and the Trump administration, including comparing the firing of former FBI Director James Comey to the “Saturday Night Massacre” of 1973 in which then-special prosecutor Archibald Cox was fired. Several Republicans challenged the intent of the hearing. Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) told Mr. Dean he was invited as “a prop” by the Democrats. close
