So genius Nadler is calling for a contempt vote against AG Barr for adhering to federal law, Nadless is insane.

[Yo-Yo]

Give him the same punishment that AG Holder received.

[SERKIT]

[IamConservative]

Seems like it would be a crime for Nadler to solicit the AG to commit a crime..??..

[BitWielder1]

I could have nothing but contempt for a committee that makes rulings like this.

[dowcaet]

The Democrats are cornered now. They have to blunt the upcoming reports by framing Barr as a corrupt AG. It’s Watergate again as far as the RATS are concerned!

[R_Kangel]

.... They’re obviously trying to send a message to Trump that he is next to be held in Contempt and that they are not afraid to do it ....

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Well, first there would need to be an investigation (gathering of evidence) performed by...
...the DOJ.

[bert]

The report is there, in a room for Nadler to read

Nadler’s problem is that he lacks the reading comprehension skill necessary to understand what is written.

[SERKIT]

So Nadler will be holding Barr in contempt for NOT breaking the law at Nadler’s “order”.

Nadler wants Barr held in contempt for not being able to see pieces of the report that is readily available to Nadler, yet Nadler refuses to review those pieces.

Nadler wants Grand Jury data he is not entitled to see and is demanding that Barr break the law to reveal that data to Nadler.

So, is Nadler suborning Barr to break the law, and isn’t THAT the real crime here?

The Republicans on the committee (I'm lookin's at YOU Collins) need to make the point that the Chairman is oblivious to the facts and is forcing the AG to break the law.

[jazusamo]

I agree, Nadless wants the unredacted report that contains Grand Jury testimony and that’s against fed law.

[Thank You Rush]

“”contempt proceedings””

“”Give him the same punishment that AG Holder received.””

Exactly - maybe Holder can appear as his attorney and tell him how it is done. I hope every Republican will make known this fact publicly..people have forgotten what Holder got away with.

[DarthVader]

How many divisions does Nadler the Hutt have?

...the Chairman is oblivious to the facts and is forcing the AG to break the law.

The Chairman is not oblivious to the facts and is attempting to induce the AG to break the law. Then they can impeach him for breaking the law.

[bigbob]

And anyone who can’t see that the reason he wants it is to be able to warn off those who are still under investigation aren’t paying attention. He already has access to everything else.

Grandstanding to keep the dem leadership from taking away his chairmanship.

[Kevin in California]

Not that anyone cares (I certainly don’t), but how can Barr be in held in contempt if he was never subpoenaed?

That one baffles me.

Exactly. The Dems are tainting Barr, then whatever he finds in the way of corruption will be labeled "partisan" or "suspect".

[SERKIT]

:::::The Chairman is not oblivious to the facts.....:::::

So the chairman is aware he can go into the SCIF and read the redactions? I am confused by giving credit to Nadler that he knows much of anything. But, confusion for me is normal....

[jazusamo]

AG Barr was subpoenaed to turn over the unredacted report by this morning.
