jury to do so.
Barr, after saying he is not planning to release the unredacted Mueller report to Congress, signals he will NOT seek a court order to release grand jury information - as Nadler has demanded. My intention is not to ask for it at this stage. He says Nadler can ask court for info

(10,417 posts)2. I really like and respect Nadler,
but damn I'm tired of Democrats wasting time waiting for republicon scum to do the right thing of their own volition. THEY AREN'T GOING TO. Never have, never will.
Nadler should already be asking for the info, and Democrats should have had a subpoena waiting, ready to serve on Barr during the hearing the instant he stated his intent to not release the report.
What the hell are they waiting for???

Anybody else?

before resorting to the courts. That way it reduces the way out on a technicality.

An impeachment process would bypass Barr and get the report unredacted.
