Can America Trust William Barr To Make Sure Mayor McCheese Doesn’t Get Away With Treason? Let’s Ask Him!
As you're undoubtedly aware, Tuesday was the day when Trump Attorney General nominee William Barr got his first crack at convincing the Senate (and, more importantly, the public) that he's not going to be the type of AG who would knowingly participate in an effort to obstruct justice by helping the Kremlin agent who currently occupies the Oval Office cover up an international conspiracy to subvert America's democracy.
There are obviously questions about Barr's nomination. For one thing, his his
My takeaway after listening to a day of Barr’s testimony? Never trust a guy who thinks his poop don’t stink.
Agree with that but there were too many of them! I was prepared to really like Barr because of the friendship with Mueller and their wives but the more I watched, the less I liked. Does this indicate I most likely will not like Mueller once we get to see/hear more on him?
I think the worse was hearing him say that trump should have the power to throw reporters in jail for saying something that hurts the country. If that was truly enforced, FOX should be gone!
Interesting conversation I heard the other day — what if Mueller and Barr were secretly working to convince trump that Barr would be on his side was actually a ruse to get Barr next to trump to gather info?
It is unsettling that Barr wouldn’t commit to make Mueller’s report public. I have further unease from his deference to ‘Executive Privilege’ giving Trump an effective veto. The fact that he won’t follow DOJ Ethics advice regarding recusing himself presages he is less ethical than Jeff Sessions.
Oh I hate that! Wonder if it is possible all that kind of stuff is part of a ruse I mentioned above? How could Barr and Mueller be such good friends with such opposing views?
