Barr Is Not Going to Have a Good Day

Playbook: “Bill Barr is likely to get a rough ride today in his highly anticipated hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Democrats will press the attorney general about the bombshell news — which broke on the eve of his testimony — that special counsel Robert Mueller had sent him a previously undisclosed letter disputing Barr’s summary of his work.”

“Hill Democrats are blasting Barr, accusing him of misleading the public and demanding he release Mueller’s letter. Some say he should resign. They’re also insisting the special counsel testify before Congress, but say the Justice Department is slow-walking their attempts to lock in a hearing date.”
