Just to clarify, it is AG Barr that is not providing the documents from Mueller's investigation that Congress has requested.
You aren't going to get the testimony son, that's illegal.
Oh wait that doesn't matter to people like you and franco.
We will find out soon enough.
Judge rules DOJ must turn over Mueller grand jury material to House Democrats
They've also argued that impeachment proceedings are part of a "judicial" process, which would qualify them for an exemption from traditional grand jury secrecy requirements. In part, they argued, the Senate's removal trial has always been seen as a judicial process, particularly since it's presided over by the chief justice of the Supreme Court.
The Justice Department rejected that argument, contending that even the Senate impeachment trial fails to qualify as a judicial proceeding. DOJ argued that the chief justice's role is primarily administrative.
Howell called DOJ's argument "puzzling."
“The Federalist Papers, the text of the Constitution, and Supreme Court precedent all make clear — impeachment trials are judicial in nature and constitute judicial proceedings," she determined.
House Republicans have spent weeks arguing that Democrats' ongoing impeachment process is invalid in part because Pelosi has refused to sanction the effort with a vote on the House floor. But here, too, Howell cast aside their reasoning as "fatally flawed."
"The precedential support cited for the 'House resolution' test is cherry-picked and incomplete, and more significantly, this test has no textual support in the U.S. Constitution, the governing rules of the House, or [grand jury secrecy rules], as interpreted in binding decisions," she writes.
Howell contended that the "most troubling" aspect of DOJ's interpretation of grand jury secrecy rules is that it would make presidents almost entirely immune to accountability. DOJ already maintains that presidents can't be indicted, Howell notes. "Yet, under DOJ’s reading of [the grand jury secrecy rules], the Executive Branch would be empowered to wall off any evidence of presidential misconduct from the House by placing that evidence before a grand jury."
The rule, she said, must not be read to impede the House from exercising its “sole Power of Impeachment."
