72. Now you are making me wonder about you,

If Barr requested the court to release the grand jury info the court would release it.

Once again, you are well aware that a court is much more likely to release the grand jury information to a judicial committee than to a legislative committee. A subpoena from a judicial committee carries more weight with the court than a subpoena from a legislative committee, but you are aware of that.

I hope you don't get mad at this, but, I watched Nicolle on Tuesday and she had Claire McCaskell on her show. Honest to god, McCaskell stated arguments against impeachment word for word the same as you have. Is Claire McCaskell a twin of yours separated at birth? I mean that as a compliment. Then again with the internet you may be Claire McCaskell?
