Barr tried to explain to the moron Democrat’s that Mueller was concerned that the news media was miss characterizing his findings. He said so in a personal call. He specifically noted that whether a sitting President could be indicted DID NOT enter into the Spacial Council’s decision to not bring any charges against the President. There simply was no evidence.
That idiot Eric Swalwell was just on Fox stating that Barr is lying, Mueller brought no indictments simply because he knew it would be futile to indict a sittin President.
I guess the Democrats are too fukin’ stupid to understand.

At the
federal level,
Article I, Section 2, Clause 5 of the
Constitution grants to the House of Representatives "the sole power of impeachment", and
Article I, Section 3, Clause 6 grants to the Senate "the sole Power to try all Impeachments". In considering articles of impeachment, the House is obligated to base any charges on the constitutional standards specified in
Article II, Section 4: "The
President,
Vice President, and all civil Officers of the United States shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and conviction of,
Treason,
Bribery, or other
High Crimes and Misdemeanors."

Swalwell is welcome to take his case to the house Judiciary committee- I am not sure if he is a member.
I See AG Barr decided to skip the House hearing today - that was to be a political smear as the DPST's treated Kavanaugh. Glad he skipped it.
Let the DPST's go on acting like Hirono- they embarrass themselves, and set a precedent for future politics- they are playing scorched earth politics - voter see it- It will come back to bite them in elections.
I am disgusted by their outrageous behavior.
Most of the argument agrees - a sitting POTUS can be impeached, and only indicted after leaving office.
