Barr: the Dept. would seek to block any subpoena of members of Mueller's team.

And it would support Mueller if he changes his mind about testifying.

In an interview with The Associated Press, Barr said the Justice Department would support Mueller if he decides he “doesn’t want to subject himself” to congressional testimony. Barr also said the Justice Department would seek to block any attempt by Congress to subpoena members of the special counsel’s team.

Whether they do anything about it is a whole 'nother matter.

State Bars tend to pick on easy targets: wayward solo practioners with substance abuse problems who don't fight back. They rarely go after rich, high profile scumbags who they know have lawyers that will tie up their overworked and underpaid enforcement staff in knots.

Me.

Barr is in this up to his eyeballs,or he knows if the truth gets out,the World Political Order will be shaken to is foundations. Is this a clue as to how bad the situation that Mueller's found.
