Nadler once called Holder contempt vote ‘shameful,’ now leads charge against Barr
Fox News ^ | 05/09/2019 | Adam Shaw

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., led the charge Wednesday to hold Attorney General Bill Barr in contempt of Congress for not handing over documents related to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe -- declaring the move necessary as the country enters a "constitutional crisis."

But Nadler took a very different stance on contempt back in 2012, when House Republicans took the same step against then-AG Eric Holder for refusing to hand over documents related to the Fast and Furious gun-running scandal, where DOJ officials tracked thousands of guns smuggled across the border but did nothing to stop them.

If it’s stunts he wants, he should get stunts. Some enterprising congress people would be wise to review Nadler’s 2012 speechifying and do word-for-word recitations of them, throwing in mimicked body language.

Too bad one of our brave go for throat Repubs didn’t mention this at the hearing the other day.

That would have socked Nadler right between the eyes. Border patrol men lost their lives in the gunning running fiasco.

many democrats don’t care how many times they prove they are hypocrites- they simply have no shame whatsoever- call them out on something, catch them red handed at something and it doesn’t affect them one iota- They don’t care how scummy they are- They serve the Evil One dutifully

And the sick weak Republicans lose again. Nothing by talk talk talk is all the Republicans have. Trump will be impeached and all his talk in the impeachment hearing we will learn so much about the attempt to turn America into a socialists Country. Doesn’t mean a damn thing. We are losing and it will continue until the Senate starts indictments.

Scumbag Nadler helped cover up ‘Fast and Furious’ which was a REAL crime.

And Republicans who are all up-in-arms over Barr were full speed ahead for voting Holder in contempt. It's always different when it's your party's person being cited.

It’s not for conspiracy theorists anymore. Globalists pushing Socialism as a means to Destroy have infiltrated EVERYTHING. They purposely create CHAOS. They will do everything in their power to create a New World Order. Mark my words.. They are just revving up.. The battle between Good and Evil is becoming a full fledged War!

Pray for President Trumps continued Wisdom and Strength. There is no doubt about it. He was sent by God.

You had your chance to read the transcript, Nadler. You refused to do so, so maybe you can’t read. Your attempts to expose the entire document to the public is against the law. You are attempting to do this so that those who are going to be indicted will escape justice. That FACT is recognized by everyone.

Rats are impervious to the concept of hypocrisy.

There are no morals or reason at all among them.

Its all about the will to power, and only that.
