House Judiciary Chair Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) is giving Attorney General William Barr one last extension.
On Friday, Nadler sent a letter to Barr saying that if he didn't hand over an unredacted version of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report by 9 a.m. Monday, Democrats would "move to contempt proceedings." The letter comes after Barr skipped a hearing with the committee on Thursday, and after Nadler said he'd give Barr "a day or two" before moving to contempt.
