(CNN) Democrats launched a full-scale assault against Attorney General William Barr at Tuesday's House Judiciary Committee hearing , clashing with Barr repeatedly as the hearing jolted from topic to topic. Here are the top takeaways from Barr's first appearance before the Judiciary panel in his 17-month tenure as attorney general. "At that point I learned about the President's tweet because I don't monitor the President's tweets," Barr said. Barr said at the Tuesday hearing that a full vote-by-mail election has a "high risk" of significant voter fraud. When Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon, a Pennsylvania Democrat, asked Barr to provide evidence that mail-in voting risked of foreign countries producing counterfeit ballots, one of the key allegations Barr has made about fraud, Barr could not do so.
