House Judiciary Committee Member Jerry Nadler is threatening to subpoena Attorney General Bill Barr if he refuses to testify at Thursday's planned hearing about the Mueller report.
Barr was scheduled and ready to testify until Nadler changed the terms of agreement to do so. In addition to questioning from lawmakers, Nadler plans to have Committee attorneys inquire about the report with the attorney general. That's where Barr is standing his ground.
NEW: Barr has warned Dems on House Judiciary he won’t show up to this week's highly anticipated hearing if they stick to the format Nadler has proposed for the questioning, according to a committee source.— Manu Raju (@mkraju) April 28, 2019
Nadler just now on Barr. “The witness is not going to tell the committee how to conduct its hearing, period.” Asked what he will do if Barr doesn’t relent, Nadler warns: “Then we will have to subpoena him, and we will have to use whatever means we can to enforce the subpoena.” https://t.co/PoOX8CoOVE— Manu Raju (@mkraju) April 28, 2019
Congressman Cedric Richmond, a Louisiana Democrat who sits on the Judiciary Committee, said on the Face the Nation over the weekend that his "sole goal" is getting President Trump out of the White House.
Judiciary Dems are blatantly admitting their political motivations.
One of Nadler's committee members just said: “My sole focus right now is to make sure @realDonaldTrump is not the president next term.”

Meanwhile, Barr is also scheduled to testify about the Mueller report in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee this week. Chairman Lindsey Graham previewed the focus over the weekend.

Nadler digging deeper and deeper. The corrupt players were caught and now they’re all panicking.
The Nadster bent out of shape because he can’t grab some sound bites to use against Trump?
These lying fools, trying to pretend that there is something in the Mueller report that leads to a different conclusion than Mueller and Rosenstein spelled out.
What they want is the spectacle of Barr being cross-examined as if he is on trial for crimes.
Is it wrong for me to hope Nadler strokes out?
Talk is cheap, Nonads. LOL!
Barr needs Nadler like a dog needs fleas.
The American people are disgusted with the Democrats. I can tell you that in my dealings I have never seen such a wave of support for Trump after the failed Coup attempt. Nadler is repulsive.
These Congressional Leftists are so challenged.
Besides, when did Nadler know Obama was spying on Trump? There are a lot of Dems buying Depends.
Adult vs child.
This is kinda fun to watch.
I’m personally rooting for massive cardiac arrest.
From your lips to God’s ears.
They also don't want any accountability or attribution for the stupidity of the questions.
DECLASS EVERYTHING MR. POTUS AND END THIS S--T!
Obviously, he will do it and make Barr appear uncooperative and hostile. I just hope the AG remembers all this when it’s time to indict co-conspirators.
I hope it was a $hit fit, because if it was, he’d be gone for good because that’s all he’s made of!
