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.
