House Plans Vote To Hold William Barr In Contempt | Hardball | MSNBC

[Moowe]

Get the people who defied their subpoenas.
There is no excuse for those people.

[rachelmelendez]

Yes ! Move forward to bring for all persons to public hearing !!!

[swimbait]

We have laws and all must follow them including crooked Barr.

[dwills]

Hold him in contempt. And don't make any deals with him!

[AmberAmbwee]

It’s depressing how low our country is willing to go to keep a president covered up.

[mefford]

*FINALLY!* I’m beyond sick of Trump and his *criminal* organization! *START the impeachment, indictment and incarceration process NOW for both Trump and Barr!*

[perfektg]

Agreed!! Stop negotiating about subpoenas, documents and who's going to testify. Go to court and force them to submit to the subpoenas and provide documents and witnesses. It's been time to impeach.

[wchurchill]

lock him up, lock him up! Everyone dies!

[dlxinfinite]

I'm a lifelong Democrat and I have little faith in either party
The Dems should have done this the day after they didn't show up.
Enforce the Laws. Impeach Trump, indict those who defied the Pelosi crowd.

[rjlchristie]

At last, some sort of baby step in the right direction, how long have we been waiting?

[davidellis]

Barr & Trump will soon be wearing SDNY Jumpsuits with " Inmate " inscribed.

[muleyg]

I agree with what Cynthia said. They need to go to court NOW.

[nicholasmaude]

The House also needs to hold Steve Mnuchin in inherent contempt of Congress. Also that swine Kris Kobach should be cooling his heels behind bars.

[ghill]

Go ahead with the follow up. Arrest and fine a few these characters thumbing their noses and the unlawful acts will come to a screeching halt.

[jacobtanner]

Contempt of court, lieing to Congress. Subpoena his hands. Stand for justice, and the constitutions.

[shangosankofa]

The house is laughable! Arrests and heavy fines is the only thing that will get their attention. Be more than self absorbed and self important SERVE THE PEOPLE! Enough talking, time for ACTION!

[anotherbuttchair]

I hope they televise the handcuffs getting slapped on Barr.

[randalldavis]

He has contempt for the American citizens.Lock him up.

[arod]

Yes! Stop negotiating and go to court, thank you!

[CJihoo]

This!
Seriously, all this negotiating needs to end. Hammer them down in court. Jail. Fine. Whatever. They aren't listening. They will never listen. Stop taking and start jailing.
