Want the truth? Put your money on Bill Barr, not Jerry Nadler
An anonymous, but wise, Wyoming rancher recently summarized special counsel Robert Mueller’s report in clear middle-America language: “We know that old boy didn’t actually steal any horses, but he’s obviously guilty of trying to avoid being hanged for it.”
The House Judiciary Committee, led by Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), wants a hangin’ no matter what. We know they’re serious because they had former Nixon counselor John Dean testify, which had everyone in America under age 60 searching Google. The parallels to Watergate apparently are uncanny in the minds of some. Next up: Maybe Robert DeNiro, since his resemblance to Bob Mueller on “Saturday Night Live” is uncanny, too.
Let’s face it, Congress seems little more than a parody now. The legislative branch of our constitutional government has withered to a thin twig, completely overshadowed by the executive and judicial branches that have far more impact on our lives.
Congress’s popularity hovers just above that of human traffickers. Their job description is to pass important laws and a budget. They’ve done neither, consistently, for years. Immigration, cybersecurity, violent crime and drug trafficking, the environment ... basically, crickets. Their constitutional responsibilities to declare war and ratify treaties have been bypassed by the executive branch for decades. We essentially are down to 2.1 branches of government.

Congresss popularity hovers just above that of human traffickers
I think it's below that of human traffickers, plus "congress" and "human traffickers" have a lot of overlap.
They have willingly relinquished their power to bureaucrats - and judges they have appointed to legislate unpopular laws. But many have honed their skills at lining their own pockets; it occupies all their time.
