Robert Mueller could be subpoenaed in the next two weeks

House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler told Democratic leaders at a closed-door meeting this week that he could issue a subpoena to Robert Mueller within two weeks if he is unable to reach an agreement to secure the former special counsels public testimony, according to two sources familiar with the meeting.
Nadlers comments at the Tuesday meeting were his clearest remarks to date on the possibility of compelling Muellers attendance at a public hearing. The committee is still negotiating with Mueller, who, according to Nadler, is thus far only willing to answer lawmakers questions in private a nonstarter for most House Democrats.
The sources cautioned that the committee has not settled on a timetable for a potential subpoena to Mueller. Speaker Nancy Pelosi hosted the meeting, and four other committee chairs were in attendance.
On Wednesday, Nadler told reporters that he was confident Mueller will appear before his panel, and that he would issue a subpoena if we have to.
