Attorney General William Barr is delivering his highly anticipated testimony Tuesday before the House Judiciary Committee, where lawmakers have long waited to pepper him with questions about the Democratic-alleged politicization of the Justice Department, as well as a variety of other issues.
A House Judiciary testimony by Attorney General William P. Barr began with a testimony by Ann Marie Dorn, and was followed by scenes from riots in cities across the United States.
Ann Marie Dorn, widow of David Dorn, who as a retired police captain with the St. Louis Police Department, was shot and killed during a “protest”. House Chairman Jerry Nadler was speaking with an aide during much of her testimony.
US Rep. Jerry Nadler responded …
“Well, I hope that Mr. Jordan will never complain about the length of my opening statement. Without objection, I am going to insert the committee’s audio-visual policy into the record of this hearing, and note that the minority did not give the committee the 48-hour notice required by that policy. With that objection other opening statements will be included in the record.”
— Rep. Jerry Nadler
