AG Barr wants to make a deal.

If the Congress drops their plan to hold him in contempt, then he may be open to negotiating release of more of the Mueller Report.

I think it is time to get serious with these scofflaws. They should vote to charge Barr with contempt. He has been contemptible.

Also, those that are ignoring subpoenas, or following White House orders, should be given an ultimatum. Either appear before the Congress for questions or be held in contempt of Congress. Also, levy a fine of $25,000 per day for which they do not appear.

They can make their choice. Choose to follow the illegal directions of Donald Trump or choose to follow the law?

They need to feel the wrath of the Congress.

You have until Tuesday morning to produce the unredacted Mueller report or be held in contempt. That is the deal in a nutshell.

and I would pile on additional charges of contempt if that were at all possible along with making some serious noise about sending out the Sergeant at Arms and Capitol Police.

The appeals will be faster than anything hes seen. That is what he is most scared of. They have been more than gracious to wait this long....

... Congress and the American people. Covering up the cover up of the largest organized
crime/foreign power* attack on America has to considered treason.
