Just in: Barr will testify before House Judiciary on July 28th, per DOJ press sec. Nadler had been preparing a subpoena:

2. WHY??????

K&R for exposure

[W_HAMILTON]

3. Oh bullshit.

Subpoena him already. We know that once late July rolls around, he will just make another excuse not to testify as he has done so several times already. He is just stringing us along at this point.

[Grasswire2]

4. So this latest date is also not enforceable, like the past two dates for him to testify.

He has walked away from this three times now, since January.

What the hell is wrong here????

[dalton99a]

5. WTF

It is absolutely foolish to trust this snake

[Bev54]

6. Yeah we have heard that before and he never showed ever.

[grumpyduck]

7. Jerry, it's time to stop being nice.

You have good minds out there. Do something or the people will lose faith in you and yours.

Or, IOW, "Fool me once shame on you. Fool me numerous times, shame on me."

[Mike 03]

10. Yeah, it's time for the Sergeant-at-Arms to pull out the

handcuffs IMO.

[Mike 03]

8. We'll see.

This gives him a month to get his story straight and produce an excuse for why he can't testify.

[grumpyduck]

11. I was just thinking about that.

Are they now planning something for the end of July so he'll be too busy?

Fool me once...

[Grasswire2]

15. He has done this twice already.

This is insanity.

Something is very wrong.

[Faux pas]

9. WTFF?

[maxsolomon]

16. did you forget they impeached the President?

these same Dems. if these Dems are bloody useless, then the entire House of Reps is bloody useless. Which is a bigger problem not unlike the bloody useful (to Republicans) Senate and the Electoral College.

Barr will just lie and dodge when he eventually shows up, anyway.

13. LUCY!!!! nt

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

14. I'm really fed up with all this Charlie Brown bullshit!! He's gonna

give them the finger, as usual. Then what?

[sunonmars]

18. Yup, whats the point if they can't even get someone to turn up. Start enforcing things.

[Thekaspervote]

28. Nadler has said if he doesn't show he will cut funding to the doj

[MoonlitKnight]

17. Delay until a bigger distraction comes along

God knows what things will be like in a month.

[sfstaxprep]

19. Next Month...

20. They should subpoena him! He'll just blow July off

and at least you have the subpoena.

[Captain Zero]

31. Yes, issue a subpoena for July 28 so if he starts making excuses again,,,

he can be held in contempt of Congress.

Agreements are fine if he was an honorable man. He doesn't honor agreements.
He always kicks the can down the road.

[Iliyah]

21. Don't believe him . .

disbar the motherf***er.

[awesomerwb1]

22. Weak

But subpoenas don't mean anything to these traitors so he wasn't going to appear anyways.

And if he does, he won't say anything important either.

[Johnny2X2X]

23. Compel him there now!

The Dems control the House, they didn't subpoena teh Walrus and now Barr. Why? Play some hard ball and have soem guts.

[agingdem]

24. Relax...

I don't give a damn if Barr testifies with a subpoena or without a subpoena today tomorrow or next month ...he's going to lie and evade anyway..but the justice department attorneys who are testifying ...that I do like..they're sticking very long very sharp knives into that gelatinous asshole...unambiguous first hand knowledge does a whole lot more harm than Barr sitting in a chair that's obviously too small for him while he spews "executive privilege" in front of the judiciary committee

[Miguelito Loveless]

25. This is why lose.

[shanti]

26. They keep pushing up the dates for everything

staying out of jail, testifying, etc. Eventually, they never do it.

[stillcool]

27. So the problem here is the subpoena...

the date of his testimony, or just that Democrats suck? If he testified tomorrow, would it make a difference in the real world?

[Bettie]

29. He won't

he'll either kick it down the road or just not show up.

[budkin]

30. He always pulls this shit

"I'll show up in a few months."
