House Democrats insisting on using staff lawyers to question Attorney General William Barr during a since-scuttled hearing appearance looked "like a bit of a stunt," according to Fox News anchor Chris Wallace. “This is Bill Barr, who was doing nothing but talking about a report which he read which he had nothing to do with,” Wallace said on "America's Newsroom." Democrats were outraged, with House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y. threatening to hold him in contempt of Congress. “I served on the Judiciary Committee for 11 years. I can recall no occasion where lawyers for the majority or the minority questioned a member of a president's cabinet under either party,” Pence said.
