It must be said---AG Barr is the mob "enforcer" and is witness tampering.
The AG of the USA has many ways to make life miserable for witnesses to Trump's high crimes. He can comb through your taxes looking for mistakes that he can charge as criminal. He can check out your internet browsing history and demand to know why you look at porn online (I would add a lol here but this is too damn serious). He can launch investigations of your spouse, children, friends if he can not dig up dirt on you.
And once he finds anything that can be construed as a federal, he can jail you and threaten to send you to prison for years---unless you accept a plea deal that includes recanting your testimony against Trump.
If the dirt that the DOJ digs up is not criminal (such as your porn preferences) it can still be leaked to Fox to discredit your testimony. Better gird your loins, truth tellers. It is going to become mighty dangerous to try to be good a American citizen in the weeks to come.
Which brings me to my point--there are already grounds to impeach Barr. Alberto Gonzales was sent packing for doing less. Why is not the House taking care of Trump's Enforcer?
PS, while lawyers all know what Barr is guilty of, for non lawyers, he is currently engaged in obstruction of justice. By announcing a "criminal" investigation of a perfectly legal federal investigation and perfectly legal impeachment, he and Trump are telling the world "If you engage in this legal process, we will place you in legal jeopardy." The federal employees who are being called to testify have to hire their own lawyers. Now their legal bills are going to skyrocket.
