"Yes...yes, I do believe there was spying"...- AG William Barr

[kentuck]

He believed just as Donald Trump believed. The FBI and all our intel agencies conspired to spy on Donald Trump.

Today, the IG is expected to blow that conspiracy theory out of the water. Bill Barr looks as foolish as his client, Donald Trump.

Barr's lack of judgement and his inclination to wild-eyed conspiracy theories show him not to be a very credible official. It is expected that AG Barr will discount the IG's report that contradicts his belief that the FBI was illegally spying on the Trump campaign. In fact, the IG is expected to say that the FBI investigation was responsible and right considering the evidence they were working with. They were perfectly legitimate.

This should force the Congress to re-examine all of Mr Barr's decisions, including his abrupt and unwise end to the Mueller investigation. Mr Barr has become a national security threat with his conspiracy ideas and actions. He should be called forth to explain himself.

1. Well then clap harder, Billy

Because to this point, you don't have any of that whatchacallit, "evidence" to support your belief.

[tableturner]

2. Disagree.....he doesn't believe that. Stop giving him credit for sincerity he doesn't deserve.

He is a knowing, purposeful, authoritarian liar!

[PatSeg]

3. Well, he SAID he believed

He may be corrupt and compromised, but he's not that stupid. He knows its not true.

[Voltaire2]

4. The forking liars will just claim the report

confirms their lies, despite the fact that it doesn’t. The media will the obligingly both side it.

5. Clearly he was a Nazi judge in a former life. Screaming at hapless defendants.

6. All we need to know about Barr...

is that he helped to push through GHW Bush pardoning the conspirators in the Iran-Contra scandal which closed the loop on some of the worst treason in US history and at least the second time that we know of where a Republican Presidential candidate conspired with a foreign power to influence an election, and by this I mean the second, before the current 3rd time a Republican has acted in a treasonous manner for power. Barr has now been involved in 2 of them.

9. Barr needs to be investigated for treasonous offenses and impeached... just right f-ing now!

[tblue37]

7. That's his story and he's sticking to it! nt

[Lonestarblue]

8. As soon as the House impeaches Trump, they need to turn to Barr.

It’s clear that he lied under oath during his confirmation hearing, and he has continued to lie as AG. Lying to the American people and abetting illegal activities by the president of the United States should make Barr impeachable.

[NotHardly]

10. Spot on.

[eggplant]

12. I'd go with Pence, then Barr.

[lagomorph777]

13. And Pence, Perry, Pompeo.

All are in it up to their eyeballs.

11. If counterintelligence work can be called spying ...

He has a technical point. But he deliberately repeated the words when his questioner gave him a chance to clarify.

GOPers love to play word swap.

Call it quid pro quo when the simpler words are bribery and extortion. What the hell is that, Latin?
Call it collusion when it was criminal conspiracy. There is no federal crime of collusion.
Call it spying when it was counterintelligence investigations. The feds shouldn't be spying on real Murikans.

All the low info base need is a few simple phrases they can spit at the libtards to make their holidays complete.
