William Barr says DOJ will support Robert Mueller if he 'doesn't want to' testify before Congress, despite a subpoena

With a little more than one week until the long-awaited testimony of Robert Mueller will take place before lawmakers, the nation's top law enforcement official on Monday suggested that the former special counsel did not need to comply with a congressional subpoena.

Barr himself has been held in civil contempt by the House for refusing to adhere to a subpoena and produce the unredacted Mueller report and its underlying evidence.told the Associated Press U.S. Attorney General William Barr delivers remarks during the National Police Week 31st Annual Candlelight Vigil on the National Mall May 13 in Washington, DC.Mueller is slated to testify both publicly and privately on July 17 to the House Judiciary Committee, the Democratic-led panel investigating President Donald Trump for potential obstruction of justice that may have occurred during the 22-month-long probe into Russian election interference.

"The report is my testimony," Mueller said in May during a rare public statement."Any testimony from this office would not go beyond our report. It contains our findings and analysis, and the reasons for the decisions we made. We chose those words carefully, and the work speaks for itself."

I wonder if DOJ will support him if he does want to testify before Congress

William Barr TrumpAttorneyBarr is still trying to cover up more. Has Mueller indicated that he doesn't want to testify? What is Barr hiding? BarrCoverUp MuellerReport MuellerFindings

Of course he does.

Snake.

Ha ha ha. Bob won’t back down!!

And still no action by dems to stop all this lawlessness. What a waste of the 2018 midterms.

These Trump thugs truly believe they are above the law Being held in contempt of Congress does have very real consequences that can ruin a person's life.

Oh well, in that case I too will choose which laws to obey, and which to completely disregard. I'll just cite Barr v. United States. Leave it to trump to base his system of government on The Purge.

Does Barr just spend his days thinking about ways he can break the law or encourage Trump to?

You just can’t trust this guy...

Trump is obstructing justice again

WTF are they hiding? Shady, mofos.
