Congressman Raskin hearing exchange with Attorney General Barr over in public statements about coronavirus policy

Maryland Congressman Jamie Raskin tells Attorney General Bill Barr at a House Judiciary Committee hearing that he lost motions for emergency injunction but got to spend the message of President Donald Trump it was time to call stay-at-home orders and masking and social distancing, having said on television that cure cannot be worse than the disease, killing the cancer by killing the patient, Barr answering people had to balance the cure with the danger which was left a danger, and he knew everybody likes to lay things at the feet of the president and in a federal republic the president respected that and the response largely run by governors, so for someone who claim to be so concerned about executive overreach he had not heard anyone keeping an eye on what governors did such as the Department in the area of religious liberty.
