Barr to Nadler: ‘I’m NOT talking to your staff attorneys’ regarding Mueller redactions

[Zorro!]

barr doesn't get to dictate how nadler wants to conduct biz'nez.

As it concerns Barr's testimony, he does.

Damn Straight!

 

[Zorro!]

Contempt of Congress doesn't require a judge, just a majority in the House, which Democrats have.

Look up 2 USC sec. 192.

a judge is necessary only if they go for a civil suit, otherwise they have 'inherent contempt power'

https://constitutionproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/WhenCongressComesCalling.pdf'

Congresses contempt power is only enforceable by Barr's justice Department.

Congress' inherent power to impeach is fully independent of the DOJ, which is part of the Executive Branch.

The Executive Branch powers are outlined in Article 2.

The Legislative Branch powers are described in Article 1.

Article I, Section 2, Clause 5 of the Constitution grants to the House of Representatives "the sole power of impeachment".

Article I, Section 3, Clause 6 grants to the Senate "the sole Power to try all Impeachments".

In considering articles of impeachment, the House is obligated to base any charges on the constitutional standards specified in Article II, Section 4: "The President, Vice President, and all civil Officers of the United States shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors."

So, you see the Senate convicting Barr and removing him from office?

Not a snowball's chance in hell. Fat Jerry's all washed out!

Then its time to stop worrying about it. We need only document their derangement for the 2020 election cycle and start making political ads.

Congresses contempt power is only enforceable by Barr's justice Department.

Its also only enforceable if they issue a subpoena...

Eric "The With" Holder and other Obama Administration officials routinely ignored Congressional Subpoenas.

...Then there is the court fight on the executive privilege which should take until 2030.

The Court isn't going to get involved in pissing match between two fellow branches. If it was a court case they would, but this is just Fat Jerry's committee.

Eric, "the kenyan protector," Holder, was often referred to as "obama's WING MAN."

Talk about an AG with an AGENDA. Then comes Lynch, meeting with Bubba Clinton on the tarmac for 45 minutes, and then CLEARING HITLERY. Never before in the history of America have we seen a more CORRUPT administration.

Democrats are the party of trash.

In fact Holder was charged with contempt of Congress but it took four years for the case to work its way to the Supreme Court, which found the charge valid but the Justice Department declined to act on the criminal referral from Congress. This is exactly what will happen if Nadler is ridiculous enough to have Barr charged with contempt.

Who's worried?

I think Trump will carry 4 additional states this time, taking 34 and leaving the Dems only 16.

Even Holder described himself as Obama's wingman.

Eric Holder: 'I'm still the president's wingman'

Obama described Holder's wife as an "Obe-genie"

Apparently, although Obama had a Mom, Grandma, Wife and Two Daughters he was unfamiliar with the term OBGYN when he read it off the teleprompter.

When Congress demanded the documents from the Justice Department in connection with the failed "fast and furious" project, Obama asserted executive privilege in refusing to turn them over Congress and Congress charged Holder with contempt. The federal courts took up this issue and after about four years, the Supreme Court ruled Obama's Justice Department had to turn over the documents to Congress and upheld Congress's right to charge Holder with contempt for refusing to do so. The Justice Department never acted on the criminal referral for contempt.

And we all know now that the DOJ is FULL of LEFTISTS... so there's no surprise there.... CORRUPT.

barr doesn't get to dictate how nadler wants to conduct biz'nez.

He most certainly can decline to be a performer in Fat Jerry's Circus.

Mueller’s follow-up letter of complaint did not allege that Barr lied or that he had deliberately misled anyone.

& nadler can slap a contempt of congress charge on him if he refuses the subpoena that will be delivered to biily boy.

Just as soon as Nadler gets a judge to hold Barr in contempt.

Contempt of Congress doesn't require a judge, just a majority in the House, which Democrats have.

It also does not have any consequences. Or did something happen to Holder when he was held in contempt?

There was a civil lawsuit filed, but the Court was not asked to put their stamp of approval on the Contempt citation, that's a Congressional power and not something subject to court review.

... The Justice Department never acted on the criminal referral for contempt.

Exactly. And a criminal referral on Barr would meet the same fate.

congress isn't powerless no matter how trump wants to play this. you think going against the constitution is wise? you are willing to give up & let the constitution die? of course you do because you are loyal to a man baby. but this nation is a nation of laws, not men.

Again for the SLOW and CRIMINALLY STUPID. Barr VOLUNTEERED to go to Congress, he was not summed, he was not subpoenaed he was acting in good faith to address concerns by Congress, UNTIL Nadler tried to turn it into a court case with lawyers.

Normally, a contempt of Congress charge results in a criminal referral to the Justice Department that may or may not be acted on by Justice, but there is something called inherent contempt in which the Congress arrests and imprisons an individual in the Capitol building until he either complies or the next election comes. This is rarely used anymore.

When the Court rejected Obama's assertion of executive privilege, it implicitly validated the contempt citation since Holder not longer had grounds for refusing to deliver the documents. If the Justice Department had chosento act on the criminal referral from Congress, Holder could have been sent to prison for a year and fined $10,000.

In Jurney v. MacCracken, the Supreme Court of the United States held that Congress has an implicit power to find one in contempt of Congress. During a Senate investigation of airlines and of the U.S. Postmaster General, the attorney William P. MacCracken, Jr. allowed his clients to destroy subpoenaed documents. After a one-week trial on the Senate floor (presided over by the Vice-President of the United States, acting as Senate President), MacCracken, a lawyer and former Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Aeronautics, was found guilty and sentenced to 10 days imprisonment. MacCracken filed a petition of habeas corpus with the federal courts to overturn his arrest, but, after litigation, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Congress had acted constitutionally, and denied the petition.

The respondent, Chesley W. Jurney, was the Sergeant at Arms of the Senate, the person with custody of MacCracken.

The Senate and VP Pence isn't going to do this with Barr. Fat Jerry has painted himself into a corner.
