Barr has nothing to offer to the House; he’s too clever to perjure himself, and that’s the only thing which could be interesting. Skip Barr and move straight to Mueller.
Quelle surprise
Man, it sure is a relief to know that testifying is optional.
So the DOJ gets to dictate how the House Judiciary Committee conducts its hearings?
And do we really need to give Barr additional airspace to spew his lies? I think not.
Let’s get Mueller in the witness chair. Fuck Barr.
Wonderful thing, Subpeeny.
This is a cusp moment.
Barr has brought all the dynamics to the front, made a crystal-clear model of the Trump process.
Seems like this is the time to act accordingly.
this one’s headed to the supremely corrupt court where we’ll find out just how concerned roberts is about his legacy. we know that boofin’ bart and clarence are firmly in the fascist camp, but will alito and gorsuch salute the abomination as well? if so, it’s all about roberts.
Somebody read his reviews.
that’s absolutely ridiculous.
he has ALREADY perjured himself. now he’s running away to keep from being called on it.
Imagine if HRC or Dr. Christine Blasey Ford had refused to appear. It’s different for a man. Especially a Republican man.
So private citizen Christine Blasey-Ford is tough enough to face a questioning by Senate lawyers in the Kavanaugh hearing, but Attorney General Barr its too much of a cowardly, corrupt POS to face questions from House lawyers in a hearing on the Mueller probe.
Nadler needs to get his shit together and subpoena him to appear now. Not after Congress gets the fully un-redacted report, which DOJ will never turn over.
Don’t think they could now even if they wanted to. Allowing him to play this card sets a precedent. Subpoena needs to be the first order of business before this committee tomorrow and it needs to be served immediately after that.
Even with Senate Republican cover Barr didn’t do himself or his master, Trump, any good today. Smarmy toad comes off as a Trump hack.
Democracy in action. Just saw a news blast that he is not coming into the Senate tomorrow either.
Banana republic?
So it seems.
Agreed. Yet Nadler just a second ago said subpoenaing Barr is “down the road” after they get the fully- unreacted Mueller report, which the DOJ is stonewalling and will never release.
Fraidy cat.
Time for the Sargent at Arms to do a no knock 0 Dark Hundred raid on Burr.
Jesus may have said “turn the other cheek” but when it gets to cheeks 3 and 4 it is pretty clear what @GOP is doing.
Oy.
