House Judiciary Committee Chair Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., joined at right by Ranking Member Doug Collins, R-Ga., prepares for the start of a hearing on The Equality Act, a comprehensive nondiscrimination bill for LGBT rights, on Capitol Hill in Washington, Tuesday, April 2, 2019. Nadler is preparing subpoenas seeking special counsel Robert Mueller's full Russia report as the Justice Department appears likely to miss an April 2 deadline set by Democrats for the report's release.
House Democrats had given Attorney General William Barr until Tuesday to produce the full report to Congress. The Justice Department ignored that deadline, with Barr telling committee chairmen in a letter last week that a redacted version of the full 300-page report would be released by mid-April, “if not sooner.”
Democrats say they want access to all of that information, even if some of it can’t be disclosed to the public. Nadler said he will give Barr time to change his mind on redactions, but if they cannot reach an agreement, “then we will have no choice” to issue the subpoenas. The five were key witnesses in Mueller’s probe of possible obstruction of justice and were sent document requests by the Judiciary panel last month, along with dozens of other people connected to Trump. Nadler said he is concerned about reports that documents relevant to Mueller’s investigation “were sent outside the White House,” meaning the committee should have access to them because they may not be covered by executive privilege.
YOU HAVE NOTHING BUT YOUR FAKE POLL BECAUSE TRUMP HAS DONE ZERO AND YOU NEED EXCUSES FOR HIS FAILURES! ANY INBRED LIKE YOURSELF WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND A CON-ARTRIST BECAUSE YOUR THE SUCKER HE TRICKS EVERY TIME! GOOD LUCK WITH THAT...WHEN YOU WANT FACTS....
_Politics The Dems want the law they made after the Starr report to be broken, just to know that nothing happened, and they wasted time and money.
Enough already Dems. Let’s talk healthcare.
Whoa. realDonaldTrump admits his father was in fact born in Germany. Since there’s absolutely no record of Fred Trump ever having become a naturalized American citizen, does that mean his son Donald J Trump was a dreamer?
Lol what a joke
Since most of the democrats partisan plants have been fired or retired from the doj it's time for battle.
I cant wait to vote for trump again.
😂so the J😆DoJ should do what Obama’s SoJ did and just ignore the request 😂. Jk! Other than issues of national security being redacted, the report should be released. But it’s funny how the Dems feel entitled after being the least transparent group.
Blah blah
Report it properly. They are on Hold.
Big deal
Th are unenforceable so let’s go to court and let Kavenaugh be the deciding vote that shuts them down.
Oh shit!
Barr has gaslighted the American people and does not deserve consideration .
And the band played on. Wonderful theater.

Cover up! Barr's cliff notes aren't good enough.
Americans want the truth. Trump says the report can be released. Let's see it.
They are asking him to break the law. Desperately obstructing law and order!!🇺🇸
If Dems were serious about Russian collusion they would would try to get to bottom of the Dossier.
Democrats are amazing. I thought they had full confidence in Mueller’s investigation abilities.
AOC is a
Look over here so that no one notices the crisis at our border! 👀
senatemajldr needs to either confirm or correct the record of realDonaldTrump having said: “I never asked Mitch McConnell for a vote before the Election as has been incorrectly reported (as usual) in the nytimes,” Who is lying Mr Leader? Trump or Maggie?
So JudiciaryGOP is against transparency. Got it.
And by Justice Department they mean William Barr who has little to do with justice and more to do with covering Trump's substantial butt.
Oh for Pete's sake. Just subpoena Mueller himself.
Welp, release the FISA report. Expose those Democrat criminals.
Why would you subpoena a investigation report that is in process to be released ? I suspect after its release this committee will again subpoena for more information they believe is missing. Do this politicians every get training ?
Yay! FISA will drop soon! Can’t wait! FISA brings down the house 🤗🤗🤗
Losing is hard. 🤣
Donnie is going to need a diaper change. OneTermTrump
But back in 1998, as a member of the same committee, he vociferously opposed the release of the full Starr Report, saying that “as a matter of decency and protecting people’s privacy rights, people who may be totally innocent third parties, what must not be released at all.”
Little Mueller!!
Nadler is too sexy for NY... 😎
So they are trying to force the AG to break the law? This is a different result of not having AG Sessions to push around because of his recusal.
This is simple...if Traitor Trump is Innocent then the report should be handed over uncut to the HOUSE!!!! Bill Barr is new on the job and should not have power to see this report first.Since the report is against Trump and his admin...the Democrats should have first crack at it!
I’m old enough to remember when Democrats said that subpoenaing the DOJ for information on the Russia investigation was unconstitutional..
What's in the report that Republicans try to hide when 80% of people say they want to see it?
They want the full Mueller report so they can dismantle it syllable by syllable to attack the president the same thing they want to do with his tax returns and he'd be a fool to release
This is going nowhere. Going to need a ruling from SCOTUS for the FULL report to get out.
