Congress has just voted to hold AG Barr in contempt of Congress for failing to comply with their subpoena of the unredacted Mueller report?

I have heard conflicting stories about the legality of this proceeding. I have heard that AG Barr can not be ordered to break federal law by Congress, and that by providing Congress with unredacted materials relating to ongoing Grand Jury information Barr would be breaking the law.

I have heard that ALL information in the Mueller report is available to Congress except for protected Grand Jury information.

Also it wasn't going to be the Congressman that grilled him, they were going to have their lawyers do it which is not the way it is supposed to work. The Congressmen were too stupid to do it themselves and were afraid Barr would make them look bad.

@acpguy We KNOW Barr would have made them look stupid, because he is a very sharp guy who KNOWS the law, and he appears to be very centered, sane, and unflappable.
