LIVE: AG Barr's testimony before the House Judiciary Committee has been delayed after chairman Jerry Nadler was involved in a car accident
U.S. Attorney General William Barr listens during a Department of Justice African American History Month Observance Program at the Department of Justice February 26, 2019 in Washington, DCAttorney General William Barr will testify before the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday in what's expected to be a contentious and aggressive hearing.
Barr is a political lightning rod and has taken center stage as one of President Donald Trump's most loyal defenders since taking office early last year. He was scheduled to testify before the House Judiciary Committee beginning at 10 a.m. ET, but the hearing was delayed after committee chairman Jerry Nadler was involved in a car accident on his way to Washington, DC, on Tuesday morning. Nadler's spokesperson said the New York congressman was not hurt in the accident.
Tuesday is the first time Barr will testify before the judiciary committee. Under the leadership of Chairman Jerry Nadler, the panel has taken point on investigating the White House and Trump over what Democrats characterize as abuse of power, and it played a critical role in his impeachment last year. Republicans on the committee, meanwhile, accuse their colleagues across the aisle of using their power to harass and distract the president.
