    Has Barr been charged with contempt? Holder has been.

    It is very clear to them all. Recall how they totally believed Hillary is innocent? Ever see them charge Holder for his contempt of congress?

    Being in the left is never being able to admit they were wrong.

    When exactly will Bob testify? Congress set a tentative date, May 23. None of the leaks mention Bob committing to that date. Would that RSVP be considered classified information? Barr's condition for appearing today, should have been "only if Mueller does".

    Mueller's complaint was that a four page summary didn't provide enough context. :roll: Obviously Bob, you freakin' idiot. Took you 448 pages of "context" to explain why you exonerated Trump.

    There aren't any DOJ rules that prevented Mueller for recommending impeachable crimes be prosecuted by congress. Ken Starr submitted 11 felonies with recommendation that the credible charges and substantial evidence be used to prosecute the sitting president. You're trying to rationalize Mueller's failure to find cause to prosecute ... and doing it too poorly to sway anyone.

    My proof is there are still a bunch of idiots still running around claiming Russian collusion because the mainstream media lied to them. That kind of #FakeNews brainwashing obviously effected the outcome of the election.

    What was Paul Manafort's defense? Paul was at the Trump Tower meeting. Manafort's plea deal was revoked too. Didn't see any collusion charges on any of Manafort's 3 indictments. You guys have vivid imaginations.

    What I say is the most important part is being left out by Leftist talking heads.

    They leave the important part for last.

    Your representation is false. In fact, Mueller’s complaint is that Barr’s letter misrepresents the report. Even then, Trump had to stand up and lie to his sheep and claim he was “exhonorated”.

    It really is only a matter of of time before we see the actual letter.

    Barr will be subpoenaed, post haste.

    No, the “summary” was a document deliberately designed to mislead, something that was completely obvious to anyone who read even the first twenty pages of the Mueller report.

    But the White House wanted a meme out there that the Trumpsters could all cheer for. Trump knows that his audience is not interested in the facts. So, he wanted.a documented he could hide behind, and that’s what he ordered.

    Barr needs to resign (although he is probably not going to). He has disgraced his office, and ruined his own reputation.

    The executive summaries and the other documents that Barr has been sitting on for a month will come out as well,

    The important part? Spin from the Justice Department’s spokesperson which directly contradicts what we already know is only “important” to the degree that it illustrates the degree to which this Attorney General will mislead people in order to defend Trump.

    Barr is not Trump’s lawyer. We all realize that Trump thinks everyone should bow down to him. But that’s not how our government works.

    That’s what his instructions were. You may want to go back to the appointment letter.

    This isn’t the first time I’ve had to school you on basic facts of the Trump/Russia scandal.

    So you are saying Kupec lied as to what Mueller said? You have anything besides TDS to back up that claim?

    There is plenty of evidence against spying, none against obstruction. Why is it you lefties have such a hard time understating the role of a special counsel? The rules were changed by dems after Whitewater but you guys think you can rewrite laws and regulations to suit you.

    Nadler is a FAT pig hack who doesn't know his ass from a whole in the ground. All his questions are given to him in advance. He still needs his staff lawyers to question Barr since he's to stupid. This is not a trial. No, he doesn't get to do whatever he wants.
    He can subpoena Barr and hold him in contempt, big deal. It's all theater with Incredibly stupid antics... and you're lapping it up.

    Your rants sound like Mad MAX

    Jake, the people have no confidence in any of the political bodies in foggy bottom. Which ones do you have confidence in? After Clapper, Brennen, Comey, McCabe, Obama, Lynch, Holder, Gates, Clinton, Sessions, Rice, Cohen, Flynn, Papadopoulos and the list goes on and on. Everyone is frozen in incompetence to get anything done. Everyone is "sue happy" through the courts if they don't get their way. I see no hope in things changing much with the election coming up in 2020.

    I’d like to see the letter, but regardless, we have seen the report and summery...there was nothing incorrect in the summery. The only people confused were the left and their propaganda machine, like the post, that were left with egg on their face.

    Comey no doubt gave Mueller a call to ask if he could do anything to help him after reading the 4 pages of conclusions.

    Don't give Hillary all the credit. Obama not only allowed Veselnitskaya to return after expulsion from the US ... in order to help Glenn Simpson fight the Magnitsky act Obama himself enacted ... he paid Fusion GPS $977K during that time period. Really weird innit?

    Well that about sums it up. Another last ditch effort by the radical leftist propaganda machine to save face. The sheep seems to be enjoying it

    Barr's set to testify AGAIN today ... and I haven't heard any explanation from (D) committee why Mueller shouldn't at least be present. Committee proposes to have congressional attorneys question Barr today. Wht not have Mueller ask the questions? Barr's going to make jackasses out of them again.

    Hillary used personal email, same as the Trump children did under this Administration and the previous Republican SOS did... not the same at all

    I heard Trump was not happy his children were using personal email... cause that ruined his fake attacks on Clinton
