Quelle surprise: AG Barr is not expected to appear before the House Judiciary Committee...

AG Barr is not expected to appear before the House Judiciary Committee, per @politico. The DOJ has informed the committee that he isn't going to comply with the testimony.

Nadler has warned Barr in a statement that if he doesn't show up to his testimony at 10AM, he will cut off the DOJ's funding by $50M.
