Laurence Tribe: Barr's as worthless a witness as he is an attorney general. Subpoena his sorry ass.

Tweeted a few hours ago, and pinned to the top of Laurence Tribe's Twitter feed:






He’s as worthless a witness as he is an attorney general. Subpoena his sorry ass, hold him in contempt when he’s a no-show, but don’t waste time over him. Call Mueller, McGahn, people who haven’t sold their souls and can help the nation get to the truth.

we used Tribe's treatise, American Constitutional Law (I think it would have been the 2d edition), even then considered to be one of the major scholarly works on that topic. I never imagined that almost 40 years later I'd see the author of that treatise on the ramparts, so to speak, demanding that the House Judiciary Committee subpoena the sorry ass of the Attorney General! Awesome!

Often my dear Mate chastises me for the crude and seemingly uneducated comments I make about the current state of affairs in Washington and particularly about Republi-cants. Prof. Tribe’s comments make me look like such a sophisticated, urbane and witty chap, I nearly wet my knickers laughing. GOOO, Larry!
