DOJ makes counteroffer to House Democrats on subpoenaed Mueller docs

The Department of Justice has made a counteroffer to Democrats on subpoenaed documents related to special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into 2016 Russian election meddling -- a move aimed at dialing back tensions between the administration and lawmakers over the matter.

The counteroffer includes a surprising concession to make available some underlying evidence that helped inform Mueller's report. DOJ officials had initially balked at just such an overture as recently as last week, which led House Intelligence Committee chairman Adam Schiff to set a deadline of this Wednesday to respond and threatened Attorney General William Barr"unspecified enforcement action.

A separate DOJ official said that the department had"already begun the process of identifying, locating and reviewing" some of the materials provided by Mueller's team separate from the report that could be in line with what Schiff has requested. But, the official added, it was"a process that will not continue should the committee take the unnecessary and unproductive step of moving to hold the attorney general in contempt."

Attorney General Barr vs the Pathological Liar, Shifty Schiff.

Barr is negotiating like a child saying “ok mom, I’ll clean my room like you asked me to, if you not ground me for lighting the mattress on fire.”

Be done with hostage taking (the American people) threats! Bring the enforcement already!!

TAKE BARR DOWN! IMPEACH HIM ALONG WITH TRUMP!!!

The Justice Department has begun “identifying, locating, and reviewing” the materials. Shouldn’t they know exactly where all of the underlying documents are already? Just another stall tactic.
