2020-06-22 | Congress Should Subpoena William Barr and Geoffrey Berman | Time
'After Berman refuted the claim on Twitter and legal scholars pointed out only the President could fire a court-appointed U.S. Attorney like Berman, Barr had to resort to telling Berman the President had fired him. '
'Congress must subpoena both Barr and Berman. '
'But the tradition of the Justice Department has been to move forward and expand protections to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness over time. '
'But Barr isn’t saying why he so desperately wanted to remove Berman from the U.S. Attorney’s office in the Southern District of New York. '
' A subpoena to Barr would be a fitting birthday present for the Department of Justice. '
