Special Counsel Robert Mueller made his first public comments on the Russia probe as he prepares to leave the office. He emphasized that his report did not exonerate1 President Donald Trump2 but says he was barred from charging the President with a crime.

House Judiciary Committee chairman Jerrold Nadler vowed3 to continue investigating President Trump. White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders says the case is closed and everyone should just "move on".

Weather forecasters say Tuesday set a new record of 12 consecutive4 days with at least 8 tornadoes5. Also Tuesday, the National Weather Service received reports of at least 27 tornadoes, including one near Kansas city.

On the anniversary of the first ascent6 of Mount Everest in 1953, there's a traffic jam on the world's tallest peak. The climbing season has been marred7 by 11 deaths, including 2 Americans, in Nepal and China.
