U.S. Attorney General William Barr listens during a Department of Justice African American History Month Observance Program at the Department of Justice February 26, 2019 in Washington, DCAttorney General William Barr will testify before the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday in what's expected to be a contentious and aggressive hearing.
Barr is a political lightning rod and has taken center stage as one of President Donald Trump's most loyal defenders since taking office early last year. He was scheduled to testify before the House Judiciary Committee beginning at 10 a.m. ET, but the hearing was delayed after committee chairman Jerry Nadler was involved in a car accident on his way to Washington, DC, on Tuesday morning. Nadler's spokesperson said the New York congressman was not hurt in the accident.
Tuesday is the first time Barr will testify before the judiciary committee. Under the leadership of Chairman Jerry Nadler, the panel has taken point on investigating the White House and Trump over what Democrats characterize as abuse of power, and it played a critical role in his impeachment last year. Republicans on the committee, meanwhile, accuse their colleagues across the aisle of using their power to harass and distract the president.
Too bad. Nadler isn't needed for this. That's why there's a continuity. If they don't have a plan, what's holding them up? It's myth that he's hurt that badly.
His auto accident? That's just a myth only being told in Washington D.C.
Well we know he wasn’t in an accident with Antifa because they are a myth
I hope the car is okay.
That’s a myth
Can't let this hearing go down.
Car accidents are a myth though.
Nadler's wreck is only a myth...
Wow. That delay doesn’t sound planned at all...
He was unhurt.
did you see him trying to walk the other day? he might as well be a penguin
That’s funny because the Democratic Party is a train wreck.
Let’s hope for the best
This is BS....show me pictures
I wonder how Barr arranged that ?
That's a myth!
i wonder who was driving the other car...
Hope the car is alright.
What a fraud
That's a myth.
It's a set up. The dems will cancel the hearing. After seeing Barrs opening statement, they are running for the hills.
Did they check the brake lines?
