WASHINGTON—The House Judiciary Committee said it would vote Wednesday on whether to hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt of Congress, escalating a dispute with the Trump administration after Mr. Barr missed lawmakers’ deadline to turn over an unredacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report.
The contempt measure refers Mr. Barr for possible federal criminal prosecution while also opening more legal avenues for House Democrats to try to force the release of the full report on President Trump and Russian election interference through a civil lawsuit.
WSJ
A snowball in Blazes has got better chances
than Barr has with Congress by telling romances.
The AG is certainly out of the pan
and into the fire with his latest plan.
His scorn for a deadline is rather patrician;
twill lead to a blow up like nuclear fission.
It's likely the hot air released by both factions
will scorch Mr. Mueller and all his redactions.
Our Congress is burning, yet Mr. Trump fiddles
with horse races on his insane tweets and twiddles.
Each day a new crisis spouts up like a geyser,
and Washington seems to be never the wiser.
