Mueller twice asked Barr to release the summaries his team had written. Those have not been released.

Trump’s Stonewall Is Beginning to Crack

The dike is sprouting more leaks than the president has fingers with which to plug the expanding trickles.

MAY 1, 2019

Perhaps the Trump administration hopes it can run out the clock on the bank subpoenas and the other matters too. But so many clocks are ticking over so many inquiries into so many areas of potential scandal. Can they all be postponed and postponed past 2020? For a president with many guilty secrets, everything turns on the ability to insert delay after delay before ultimate legal defeat. It’s not a great plan. It’s liable to go wrong, maybe catastrophically wrong. At this point, though, it’s all he’s got.

In the land of short memories: As Barr skips House hearing due to use of staff attorneys to ask questions, remember Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee brought in an outside attorney to question Christine Blasey Ford during Brett Kavanaugh confirmation.

Fox News' Chris Wallace: Some opinion people who appear on this network who might be pushing a political agenda don't think the Mueller letter is a big deal. But we have to deal in facts -- the fact is this letter was a clear indication that Mueller was very upset w/ Barr.

In Barr’s America, a president can shut down an investigation in which he is implicated if he thinks it unwarranted.

He can shut down every probe referred to other offices.

He cannot be held accountable.

Barr’s America doesn’t look much like America. Looks more like —

Russia.

Barr’s testimony was embarrassing to the Department as an institution.

Eric Holder @EricHolder May 1

The conduct of AG Barr over the last few weeks and in the hearing today has been shown to be unacceptable. I thought he was an institutionalist, committed to both the rule of law and his role as the lawyer for the American people. I was very wrong. He is protecting the President.
