Barr had offered to let the Gang of Eight (Pelosi, Schumer, McCarthy, McConnell and Intel Committee leaders), along with Judiciary Committee leaders see the less-redacted version. But Dems say more members on the relevant committees need to see it to make informed judgments.
Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler subpoenaed for the report earlier Friday, a well as all its underlying evidence.

(45,003 posts)and continues to screw up. The Trump strategy is aggression and obstruction. Thats not a way to win. At all. What is Barr thinking is the best that could happen. He already torched his reputation. He may well go to jail too (like John Mitchell).

(7,142 posts)Barr is in the 4 corners defense. He has no intention of releasing all of Muellers report.
Barr wants to stall and run this right up to the election where he will claim he doesnt want to muddy the election waters.
Debates begin in 6 weeks, time is ticking to get Muellers report released.

Major misstep here. It's just like the Nixon days when at the end, it all came out anyway. Barr is a stone-cold fool!

(3,803 posts)They need to paint Barr as the corrupt toady he is -- he's a fucking liar and can't be trusted with anything.
In fact, they should be demanding his resignation instead of giving documents or statements that come from him any credence whatsoever.

(7,142 posts)Barr is stalling. Barr just rejected the subpoena saying it is premature.
The election is getting closer.
