I'm not sure how Mr. Cohen plans to arrest the AG. Should be interesting watching this. Mr. Barr is a no-nonsense kind of guy. He ain't going to put up with that shit IMHO
“
Otherwise, it is up to the Justice Department,” Cohen justified. “The Justice Department will not do anything to take a contempt citation from us and enforce it against their boss. So you have an impossible situation there and it leaves us no other alternative except to use our sergeant-at-arms and to bring him in. He’s being utterly contemptuous to Congress.”
“Are you talking about just having him sit for a hearing or locking him up somehow?” Cooper pressed further.
“You have to have him sit for a hearing and I think you have to have him locked up unless he agrees to participate and come to the hearing,” Cohen then said.
“But do you actually believe that you’re going to — that your committee is going to order the Attorney General of the United States to be arrested by the sergeant of arms and put in jail?” Cooper asked Cohen.
Cohen said he did not know.
“But we can’t just go to the Justice Department. It is meaningless,” Cohen told Cooper, before saying the actual decision falls strictly with Rep. Jerry Nadler, the committee chair.
The new deadline for Barr’s response is Monday."
