WTF? Democrat House Judiciary Committee Takes First Step to Hold Bill Barr in Contempt of Congress

[Slyhunter]

This is getting out of hand. I mean how dare AG Barr release redacted Grand Jury material which in itself a federal crime. Nadler is nuts!


BREAKING: Dem-Controlled House Judiciary Committee Takes First Step to Hold Bill Barr in Contempt of Congress

Nadler in the morning is going lose big because his absurd actions are being bone in bad faith, he was sent a letter TODAY, saying that if Nadler follows through, it is over for that dumb ass, from The Last Refuge:

DOJ to Nadler: Threaten Barr With Impeachment, You Get Nothing…

May 7, 2019

Excerpt:

Smart move by DOJ lawyers. The letter below informs Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler the previous report content was provided without assertion of executive privilege; however, if Nadler follows-through with impeachment plan, executive privilege is now enforced and the totality of the report is withdrawn from congress.

The Letter is in the LINK
===============================================================
There was never any credible case for Contempt/Impeachment against Barr, Nadler is a terrible Chairman of the Committee as he is about to get clobbered.

Go read the letter in the link!

hmm. using executive privilege as a threat against congress.

Barr broke the law for Trump, and now he's freaking out because he's on the precipice of being held accountable for a cover up.

This is why you don't do illegal shit for your boss.

Since the Mueller report totally exonerates the president, they have to go to such extraordinary lengths to prevent it from being released

If they want to read the unredacted report all they have to do is go to the room provided and read it there.
Don't be as disingenuous as your congressmen are being.

Dumb.
Select Congressmen can go read the unredacted report any time they want to. It's kept in a secure room to insure no leaking. It's not 100% unredacted because some parts can't be unredacted by law. You wouldn't want Barr to violate the law would you?

You have no idea how stupid your last post was do you?
It is against the law to release to the public certain parts of Muellers report because it can taint the jury pool of ongoing investigations. It's also against the law to release testimony of those who have been investigated but shall not be prosecuted due to the fact that such release of data would be prejudicial to the individuals in question.

Change the fucking channel and watch something other than the Left wing spin on the news.

NO ITS NOT -

Congress is bound by the Constitution to protect the country via separation of powers ...

Barr is violating the Constitution by holding the redacted report in private.

Using your argument and logic, Mueller and Barr is a member of the executive branch and separate powers would dictate they not release it and keep it for themselves. If they want an unredacted report for themselves then they should get their own damn prosecutor to do the investigation instead of relying on the Executive Branch to do it for them.

Dems Move Forward With AG Barr Contempt Vote

The top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee said late Tuesday that panel Chairman Jerry Nadler will move forward with a scheduled Wednesday vote to hold Attorney General William P. Barr in contempt of Congress.



Comey destroy the FBI b the way jackasses. THe coup against Trump is not over... we're gonna dismantle you democratic pos crooked pricks.

Trump asserts executive privilege to keep full Mueller report SECRET as Bill Barr held in CONTEMPT | Daily Mail Online

If anyone should be held in Contempt it should be Nadler for criminally demanding the US AG break the law and for affecting this criminal political theatrical performance of voting Barr in Contempt for refusing to break the law by handing over information Nadler knows he has no legal right to see!

There is a much less redacted version of the report Nadler could have seen by now, but he has refused to do so because he knows there is nothing in it. Only this continuous political theater of false accusations and bogus Contempt Charges can keep the traitor-supporting snowflakes holding on while they continue to undermine the US govt / this administration and attempt to continue their e posed coup.

 

[toomuchtime_]

During the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday morning, Barr said that he believed the special counsel should have stated whether his 22-month probe found enough evidence to show whether Trump had committed an obstruction crime.

“I think if he felt that he should not go down the path of making a traditional prosecutive decision, then he should not have investigated,” Barr said.

“That was the time to pull up.”

Barr told Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, that he and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein both believe it was Mueller’s responsibility to come to a decision on obstruction — “not just charging, but to determine whether or not the conduct was criminal,” Barr said, adding that “the president could not be charged as long as he was in office.”

Attorney General William Barr criticizes special counsel Robert Mueller for not saying whether Trump obstructed justice

Nobody aside from Trumpster's gives a shit what Trump's Roy Cohn said, you need to understand that part.

The Justice Department expected Mueller to make a decision and he failed to, so your argument that he was somehow prevented by DoJ rules from making a decision of obstruction has no merit. Mueller is still employed by Justice and is still bound by its rules and by instructions from the AG, but Barr has said he will not object to Mueller testifying, so brace yourself for another disappointment if Mueller decides to testify.

Trump could never be brought to trial before the next election. He could block any attempt with multiple legal objections and actions that would have to work their way through the courts. However, what is going on in the House is about the election in 2020 and it may well be laying the groundwork for an impeachment after the election if needed.

I agree with you that what the Democrats in the House are doing is purely political and has nothing at all to do with their legitimate duties as members of Congress. However, the reason the President can't be brought to trial is that there is no evidence he commited a crime. Since collusion is not a crime, at the times Trump is accused of trying to obstruct the investigation, Mueller was not conducting a criminal investigation, therefore interfering with Mueller investigation about non criminal matters could not be construed as obstruction of justice. Impeachment, which may happen, would be just a political gesture by the Democrats, nothing more.

Yes, investigating the president for a possible bill of impeachment is pure politics because that is what impeachment is, a political process to remove a government official from office, not a legal process. The House of Representative has the authority to investigate any government official, including the president to gather information for a Bill of Impeachment.

Once impeachment hearings are opened, the House will have legitimate investigative powers to issue subpoenas, but until then these subpoenas are not related to fulfilling any of the House's enumerated powers and are therefor not legitimate. Since the President would not be convicted by the Senate, impeachment would be nothing more than a political gesture by a Democratic controlled House that seems to have no other interests but to make pointless political gestures.

Of course they were because Clinton was never subpoenaed.
