Jordan slams Dems over 'crazy' treatment of Barr
The Hill ^ | 5/1/2019 | Saagar Enjeti

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), a member of the House Judiciary Committee, blasted House Democrats' treatment of Attorney General William Barr as "craziness."

In an exclusive interview with Hill.TV, Jordan slammed proposed format changes by committee Chairman Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y) to allow committee staff to question Barr after members in a now-canceled House testimony on his handling of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Jordan pushed back on Nadler's assertion that Barr is "afraid" to testify, pointing to the official's Wednesday appearance in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

“Think about how crazy that is,” Jordan said. “The very moment [Nadler] is making that statement, Bill Barr is testifying in front of Congress, he’s in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. That is craziness.”

Barr notified Nadler Wednesday evening that he will not appear before the committee on Thursday after Democrats and the Justice Department failed to reach a deal on the terms of his testimony.

Barr has done enough. Like Lindsey Graham said “we’re done”.

Time for the R’s to turn the damn tables on the D’s. Tell them you had your day in court, we hauled the Attorney General himself up here and you asked your questions and he answered them. Congress’s job is oversight not harrassment or law enforcement. Those who want to re-investigate everything - go apply for a job with the FBI. But the US Congress is here to make laws and exercise oversight and we’ve done diligence. We are moving on and if you don’t like it you can shove it.

If I had been in Barr’s situation, I would not only have been a no-show tomorrow, but a no-notify as well. Just stand them up.

Maybe Lindsey’s testicles have dropped. I hope so. Time for the bull to hit’em with the horn.

The Dems are trying to neutralize Barr because they know he’s about to blow the lid off their conspiracy.

Trying to impeach Barr would be obstruction of justice by the Dems own standard.
