Bill Barr in the matrix.

[kentuck]

He never believed that Donald Trump was capable of all the crap that people charged him with. He agreed with Donald Trump. It was all a hoax.

That is why he dismissed all the charges in the Mueller Report. He believed they were simply going after Donald Trump.

So he gave his 19-page resume to the Justice Department and applied to be the Attorney General. He immediately threw the Mueller Report in the trash can and, at the behest of Donald Trump, initiated an investigation of the investigation. He went around the world, and even stopped off in Rome, to try and find dirt on our Intelligence agencies.

Then, his name came up in the transcripts of the Ukraine investigation. Trump wanted him to come out in front of the media and tell the people that he had read the transcript and Donald Trump made a "perfect" call and there was nothing wrong with it.

But, Barr balked.

The hunter was becoming the hunted. He could hear the hounds in the distance.

He wanted to be the Attorney General and was willing to protect Donald Trump....up to a certain point.

But now, he has been drawn into the web. He should be recusing himself from the Ukraine investigation but he continues to cling to his fantasies.

He has done the exact opposite of Donald Trump. He has gone from the cover-up to the crime. He needs to answer to the American people.

1. Barr is the ultimate political hack.

The perfect idea of POTUS is perfect only works with Republicans. He was on Ken Starr's team to destroy the Democratic POTUS.

So fuck him....I want him indctied and convicted as a real time co-conspirator for aiding and abetting a real time traitor.

2. He and his corrupt elves, I hear, are working around the clock to finalize the report on the

Nefarious Democratic machinations gleaned from his recent world tour. Having been exposed as a liar and cheater after his Mueller report exhibition, I doubt he wants to do anything attention getting before his probe report is unveiled.

[kentuck]

3. They should know better than to take his word for it.

He is not an honest broker. Just as he wasn't an honest broker with the Mueller Report. Any report coming from AG Barr will be accepted with much skepticism.

4. I guess Durham's name will be shit before the end of the year then.

5. I have no damn use for Mueller either. He twisted himself in to a pretzel to negate his own report.

Mueller and his family are in bed with the Barr. Their wives are best of friends in crime. Screw him and the horse he rode in on. A pack of holy rolling freaks and believe they are the saviors of society from the degenerate Democrats.

6. I think you give Barr WAY too much credit for having principles and giving a fuck about ethics and

morality. I imagine he KNEW Trump was "capable of all that crap," and he thought that made Trump a tough and reliable conservative.

[kentuck]

7. Perhaps you are right..

I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, which he hasn't shown to be deserving.

9. There's no doubt about it. Barr has always been a right wing ideologue and...

...he's seizing the opportunity to further the mission of undermining government and democratic institutions.

As I wrote not too long ago, Barr and others are using Trump as the diseased carrier pigeon that he is. They're taking advantage of a narcissist with strong appeal to the tens of millions of racist, sexist, xenophobic ignoramuses.

10. sorry, but Barr didn't need to hold a press conference to exonerate Trump

Because DOJ as a whole exonerated Trump when Kerri Kupec - DOJ spokeswoman - said as much in late September at a press conference.

Why do twice the work?

12. Kentuck, I agree with 99% of your threads

this is the 1% I disagree a bit. If Barr agreed with the nonsense conspiracy theories he had no business being AG, maybe dog catcher but not AG. Barr believes in absolute authority of the executive is the kindest take I have on him.
William Barr is more dangerous than Trump right now. I fear he is going to come up with a made up conspiracy that Ukraine hacked the 2016 election, Bill Barr doesn't believe the conspiracies he is a part of contriving them, he is part of the corruption, he needs to be impeached.

[kentuck]

13. I cannot disagree with your post.

He is a major part of the corruption. He has had plenty of time to discover the truth, even if he was momentarily blinded by ambition and power. Every day that passes without him stepping forward, speaks volumes, in my opinion.

[NewJeffCT]

14. He didn't balk

the DOJ already had given a press conference exonerating Trump over the Ukraine extortion call. Why would he need to give another one?

[kentuck]

15. Only because Trump wanted Bill Barr to personally clear him of all charges...

Barr has not yet done that.
