Speaking to CNN's Dana Bash this morning, House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler said his committee was prepared to subpoena the full report from Special Counsel Robert Mueller' investigation.

He also said House Democrats would "absolutely" take the issue all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court in order to obtain the report.

Nadler also preemptively addresses the idea that Donald Trump may claim executive privilege in order to keep the report from Congress, but has no right to do so.

"He has no right to claim executive privilege on any evidence of wrongdoing. That was made clear by the 9-0 ruling by the Supreme Court during the Nixon (Watergate) case."
