Nadler to Barr: Here’s my counteroffer — and a new contempt threat

So what? Staffers aren't voting. What rule says, "Thou shall not allow staffers to speak in hearings!"
What rule says they ARE allowed to question witnesses.

Projection is a helluva drug. The Congressmen showed up. Barr ran away like a sniveling coward.
Sure, whatever you say. :roll:

Nothing changed with the proposed House agenda after the Senate hearing. What happened is Barr said, 'oh, ****, that didn't go so well. I only want to appear in front of committees where the chair has my back. I'm too chicken crap to appear in a hearing run by Democrats. RUN AWAY!!! And Barr did.
You have an very good imagination, and poor vision.

How you guys get the Democrats are scared is both a mystery and pathetic.
Not as pathetic as your bs.


Nadler clown.webp

Ok, how about a compromise: We give ONE staffer the same five minutes each of the congressmen get?

What Wikipedia blurb? I posted a link to an article from ABC News. Thanks for admitting you didn't even look at it.
Thanks for admitting that what you posted was utter nonsense. Hopefully next time you won't pretend to know about something that you don't understand.
 
Why are they so afraid to ask Barr questions themselves?

Nadler blinked. Next week, there'll be another offer, then another until Barr agrees to appear.

Why do you guys think Barr is so terrified to testify in front of congress and why trump is now trying to block Mueller from testifying? I thought Mueller's report "totally exonerated" trump? Why are you guys so scared?
 
What rule says they ARE allowed to question witnesses.

The one that says Congress makes the rules for Congressional hearings. If you want to claim staff can't question witnesses in a hearing, that's your burden to prove.

Sure, whatever you say

No, it's not what I "say," it's what happened. Congress showed up, Barr ran away like a sniveling coward and did not show.

Now you're like a school kid who ran away from a fight insisting, "HE was the one afraid, not MEEE!!! He's lucky I didn't show up, the scaredy cat, cause I would have beat him up BAD if I did show!!

That's literally your argument. You really should try a new one because it's pretty pathetic. :roll:

LOL, yeah, insults work well. Eleven lawyers vs. Barr and BARR is the one running scared? Does that even make sense? Are you EVER going to tell us why you're afraid for Congressmen to ask the questions. That's their job.

Barr is the one who didn't show. No amount of projection or spin changes that really simple fact.

I didn't post a Wikipedia blog. Thanks for admitting you lied about that. Hopefully next time you won't lie again.
