.AOC joins list of Democrats calling for William Barr to Resign
New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has joined the growing list of Democrats calling for Attorney General William Barr to resign over his handling of the Mueller report.
Some suggested Barr should be impeached if he does not resign, including Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal, Julián Castro, the former secretary of Housing & Urban Development under Barack Obama and a current 2020 candidate, and California Representative Eric Swalwell, also running for the 2020 nomination.
In the letter, Mueller expressed concern that Barr’s memo to Congress summarizing the special counsel’s main findings lacked important context from the report, creating confusion and misunderstanding about the investigation among the American public. Representative Pramila Jayapal, a Washington Democrat and a member of the House Judiciary Committee, stated on Twitter that she will urge Chairman Jerry Nadler, a New York Democrat, to hold Barr in contempt.
“Given his lack of candor in describing the work of the special counsel, our members were right to insist that staff counsel be permitted to question the attorney general,” Nadler said.
