Barr has the option to resist any lawful demand just as all congressional subpoenas have gone unpunished. Why is this any different. Do we have the means by which to imprison him?

Lock him up.

Odds that Barr will never comply: 90-10.

I now expect Trump to try to shut down the govt because CPAC attendees - his friends, admirers, and cult members - have been exposed to someone with the virus and that includes him. Perfect way to avoid almost everything plaguing him and eliminating any action against Barr. This, I admit, may be extreme negativism but almost anything is imaginable with this man.

"especially considering that the Mueller Report did turn up evidence of contacts between people associated with the Trump campaign and Russia."

That made no sense what so ever.

The so called judge has not found anything wrong with the press conference. There is no contradiction except in your mind. The judge has zero right to read the complete report anyway.

The Justice Department will appeal, and it will eventually reach the Supreme Court where, given the Court's current membership, this decision will be overturned. Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings..............
