AG Barr has agreed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee

next month for the first time as the panel examines whether he has inappropriately politicized the Justice Department.

'House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., had threatened to subpoena Barr himself for the hearing next week if he didn’t agree to appear. The attorney general has never testified before the panel.'

Barr has a fear of actually being subpoenaed and then refusing to show. He'll never show up with or without a subpoena.

Then there will be further delays. Too much time to take it through the courts.

Flynn and Stone will be free men and seen out drinking with Barr congratulating themselves.

not show or claim everything is classified. We have to stop "threatening to subpoena" and just goddamn subpoena.
