We've been very clear. Barr has to come. He has to testify. It's none of the business of a witness to try to dictate to a congressional committee what our procedures for questioning him are, he is supposed to show up on Thursday and we will take whatever action we have to take if he doesn't.

The court's thoughtful ruling recognizes that our impeachment inquiry fully comports with the Constitution and thoroughly rejects the spurious White House claims to the contrary.

We should call this what it is: an absolute cover-up by the White House, the White House is advancing a new and dangerous theory: the crony privilege.

These include government officials who worked, or continue to work, in close proximity to the president, we will not rest until we obtain their testimony and documents.
