House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., threatens to hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt of Congress.
A placard has been placed on the witness table where Attorney General Robert Barr is schedule to testify before the House Judiciary Committee on Capitol Hill on May 2, 2019 in Washington, DC.House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., threatened to hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt of Congress if the Department of Justice does provide access to the unredacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia report.
A Justice Department spokeswoman said that Nadler's format for the hearing, which would have carved out time for the committee's staff attorneys to question Barr, was "unprecedented and unnecessary." "The chairman can't have it both ways," Collins said. "He can't try to pacify his liberal base by pretending to do impeachment without actually taking the plunge. The reality of our chamber and this distinguished committee is that when it comes to impeachment, you're either in, Mr. Chairman, or you're out, and, right now, you're out."

So let’s say he does it. ;) Whatever happened to Eric Holder when he was held in contempt? Nothing!! So, unless Congress gets police powers, it’s an impotent move.
More threats from tge crazy bipartisan democrats!! Im really getting tired of our political games 👎🏻
So what?😂😂😂
Yes
Yada yada yada
WILL NEVER HAPPEN!!
Democrats are the laughing stock of the world.
Whatever! Delusional looney liberals
the fuck is a threat? just do it. dems really need to get it together. no one cares about tough talk. the country needs tough action!!
But they have the report. What else do they want? It is not like Holder who refused to hand over documents.
Nadler is worthless
Oh please do it. They won't do it because they legally can't. Barr volunteered himself to speak. Dems are so dishonest, sowing their propaganda. They are bad for America.
No more threats. Act! Subpoena the lying sob, send the Sgt. of arms to haul his lying butt before the Committee. Ditto any official or former official who ignores subpoena. Restore the rule of law.
He WAS testifying in front of Congress...in the SENATE.
Use the Eric Holder defense, just ignore the charge.
enough with the threats. Just DO IT already

Democrats denounce Attorney General Barr for skipping House hearing as tensions riseThe House Judiciary Committee will meet Thursday morning without its star witness, Attorney General William Barr, who backed out after Democrats demanded that the panel’s lawyers ask some of the questions. Well, it's over. Jerry Nadler gave a great summation of what's happening and what's next, and the goop leader Collins had a little hissy fit. I hope he has a steam and massage this afternoon to get his blood pressure under control. Maybe a nice spirulina shake? Chicken shit
