The difference with Holder and contempt is Repubs didn’t want to go with optics of having black man arrested by Sergeant of Arms.
If arrested can be jailed in the capital and fined x amount of dollars per day until you comply.
This is what the Dems/Nadler is willing to do to Barr.
As the Republican said, they want to hold impeachment proceedings without calling them impeachment proceedings. If Barr had agreed to nadler’s riduclous demands, then he would have added more so that Barr would not testify. He might have suggested that Barr testify in the nude, and when Barr said no, then he would have said “see, Barr is obstructing justice for his boss”.
Yes, if they get by with it.
That will not happen!
Barr answers to congress; congress has no right to demand he answers to their staff.
“Holder also ignored a congressional subpoena. Nothing happened. That should be the precedent for A.G. Barr to follow.”
Absolutely.....they better go after Eric Holder first. But, we all know that isn’t going to happen.
A subpoena is only a suggestion. That was the precedent established during the last Congress when subpoenas were routinely ignored. jospehm20 - calling Nadler a scumbag was uncalled for. Scumbags serve a useful function. Nadler does not.
I was under the impression that Barr had not been subpoenaed but rather was going to appear voluntarily until Nadler changed the procedure.
And I’m sure she devoured every morsel.

If Barr is held in contempt, he should consider it the same as a Medal of Honor.
He wasn’t even subpoenaed, you idiot (Nadler). He declined an invitation.
That isn't the same thing. That was one person from outside of federal government who was agreed to by Republicans to be the common questioner for all to a witness, not a Cabinet member.
What the Democrats want is each member's staff to ask questions on their behalf. That's what is unprecedented.

Hey, I hold Nadler in contempt every day! I have NOTHING but contempt for this vile traitorous piece of puke.
Finally, a JFK of renown...
Finally, a good Kennedy!
Finally, a good Kennedy!
The JFK clan was and still is a disaster for America.
They and the Bushes have worn out their welcome.
Fat B@st@rd threatening Barr with a subpoena, hilarious! I’m sure Barr is just terrified.
A real (deadly) threat: 400+ pound Fat B@st@rd threatens to sit on top of Barr LOL.
