Opinion: William Barr now has to try to defend the indefensible

Attorney General William Barr is scheduled to testify Wednesday in the Senate and on Thursday in the House, though CNN reported he is balking at the format on the Democratic-controlled House side and threatening not to appear.

When Barr testifies in Congress this week -- even if he boycotts the House and only appears in the Senate -- he finally will face a fair fight.

'Knock Down the House' puts AOC's stunning victory in larger context

By providing a ground-floor seat to the start of the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez phenomenon, "Knock Down the House" feels like an extended window into a moment in history. That fortuitous twist, however, risks overshadowing the documentary's larger message, which essentially serves as a rallying cry to brave elected politics, emphasizing that AOC is the notable exception, not the rule.
