The two Democrats say the rules of the Virginia and D.C. bars require “candor” toward official tribunals and that engaging in “dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation ... reflects adversely on the lawyer’s fitness to practice law.”
Democrats are enraged about two particular exchanges in which Barr did not disclose Mueller’s apparent dissatisfaction with his handling of the report. In an exchange with Barron April 9, Rep. Charlie Crist asked the attorney general whether he knew why news reports had reflected dissatisfaction among Mueller’s team with Barr’s handling of the report. “No, I don’t,” Barr replied.
Barr allies have defended his statements as accurate based on the way lawmakers framed the questions. But Democrats say Barr should have used the opportunity to reveal Mueller’s concerns, expressed in a letter to Barr on March 27, several days after Mueller submitted his final report. In the letter, Mueller said Barr’s public depiction of the report did not “fully capture the context, nature and substance” of the final report.

They already subpoenaed him to produce Mueller’s unredacted findings and underlying evidence to Congress — a subpoena whose May 1 deadline Barr ignored.
I guess the dems are really scared of what Barr's investigation is going to find. Tic Toc.....just a matter of time!
Barr is going to expose all of the corruption from the Obama administration and the Clinton campaign. Dems know it. That is why they want him out. Spying on Trump campaign, unlawful FISA, Russian collusion with DNC and Hillary, Steele Dossier-Russian Disinformation Campaign.
Run rats run!! 🤣🤣
Dem 🤡🤡🤡🤡 are worried...They Waited 2yrs for a Big Fat Nothing Burger. They Don't want to Pay the Barr Tab. The 'Truth Show' is just beginning & it's going to be Great to Watch. 🍿
Look at the question. He asks if 'Barr knows why Meuller's TEAM MEMBERS were upset?'(So much so that they leaked Mueller's letter), not Mueller himself. This will take all of 2 seconds to get thrown out. Some people try to get over, this never had a chance
Really, don’t they have better things to do than conduct, character assignations? Heaven help a real crime is committed in their presence, probably will wet their cartoon character cotton panties. Losers...
Lol, Barr is Godzilla bitches, good luck.
Good gravy what are the dems so scared of
Democrats are one day away from needing a shipment of straight jackets sent to them.
The sick DemoncRats are getting more desperate. Can't wait to see how they react to the inevitable reckoning
I would love to be a fly and listen to all the stuff dems r throwing on the wall to divert attention from what Barr is going to uncover about them!!! Hahahaha
Barr needs to be disbarred in both states. Lawyers are to be truthful in testimony but since he was not and then refused to testify brings up ethical questions on his behavior.
How about some bar investigating these tow loons......Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.), a member of the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-N.Y.)
Cnn hates Americans and lie too.
Not smart.
Crazy.
Why are members of Congress meddling into various bar associations. Dont they have our work to do or have they decided to become some sort of court too
Time to Diss-Barr.
Wack jobs...if they were two gop and two demmies I might buy it.
They really need to. Barr is making other lawyers very embarrassed about being a lawyer. His conduct is unbecoming
... because you are really bad at asking questions and looked like fools?
Insane
Barr immediately invokes his powers as Attorney General and says henceforth they will be referred to as Barr Associations.
Why not...Go!
Time to grow up and move on! What will be next? I got a suggestion do your job!
They’re not “bar associations.”
Good

Democrats blast Attorney General William Barr, calling him Trump’s ‘paid federal public defender’In scheduled back-to-back congressional hearings this week, Democrats will have their first chance to grill Barr since he stood at the Justice Department podium and repeatedly declared that Mueller had found no “collusion” between Trump and Russia. Barr has not withdrawn, but aides said he might not attend because the panel’s leadership wants to allow committee lawyers to do some of the questioning, rather than just lawmakers. Barr and Rosenstein lost all credibility after putting that 4 page memo out. Many people say...Barr is reviewing the GOP handbook 'How To Lie To Congress For Dummies' before showing up.
