re: #221 Barefoot Grin

the problems, as I understand it (and maybe I don’t), that Congress has to rely on DoJ to enforce things like “contempt” and other punishments. How likely is it that Barr will decide to enforce a contempt charge against himself?

There’s three ways to enforce contempt. The statutory process relies on the DOJ. The inherent power relies on the House Sargent at Arms to make the arrest. Then there’s also a civil process that involves the committee or chamber suing.
