the halls of Congress—and especially the House—have been crawling with elected officials who don't just cater to people whose only sources of information are Fox News and talk radio. They are those people."One of the side-effects of this kind of Fox News lunacy is that other actual members of Congress believe it, and see it uncritically," says Ocasio-Cortez. "So I was on the floor [of the House] once and this guy came up to me, and he was like, 'Is it true that you got $10 million from Netflix?' And I was like, 'No?' And it was like, in the well—we're voting on, like, gun reform. And I'm like, what else do you not know? This is concerning."

The House voted unanimously in March on a nonbinding resolution to make public the report’s findings, an indication of the deep support within both parties to air whatever evidence prosecutors uncovered.
yeah... that's not my read on that. "non-binding" is a key phrase.

Barr statement: anticipates making principal conclusions public as soon as this weekend

i mean that supposition ("deep support within both parties") goes against literally everything the GOP has done for the past 2 years.

Barr: “I am reviewing that report and anticipate that I may be in a position to advise you of the Special Counsel’s principal conclusions as soon as this weekend.”
The "you" is Congressional leaders, not the public. I assume those congresspeople will drop some bombs and spin some spin, but Barr didn't say he was making anything public.
