NBC News: Barr recommended to Trump that Stone’s sentence not be commuted.

1. Barr is just covering his own ample rear end.

He knows Trump isn't likely to be re-elected, and he doesn't want to get tangled up in whatever might happen after 1/20/21.

[Coventina]

2. Way too late for that, I think. With all the shenanigans he's pulled.

I think he's in up to his double chin.

3. Bullshit.

[peggysue2]

4. Barr has a CYA moment

The man really is reptilian.

[Nevilledog]

5. Barr responds:

v

[MoonchildCA]

7. Wow! One hand.

That’s impressive.

[Cha]

13. lol.. it looks like he's showing it off.

23. ..👍🏼

6. You're still his puppet.

STFU!

[Captain Zero]

8. maybe Barr will address it when he goes before house committee July 29th?

Bwahahahwahahawahahahwahahawahahahwahahawahahahwahahawahahahwahaha.

that fucker show up July 29th? Yes exactly like all the other times he showed up...

[agingdem]

9. recommended..ouch!

it's not like Barr is going to get fired...and Barr's so-called moment of clarity is a public relations thing..social media pushback from loyalists...but gee whiz Billy Barr did his darnedest to dissuade the orange maggot but oh well he's the president and if the president does it then it's legal (re: Nixon) and see Barr's really an independent thinker...

10. Sorry I am not buying Barr's BS at all

They are playing us all for fools.

11. This is just another Vince McMahon head-fake sideshow- switching sides to play to the crowd. BS

[Tactical Peek]

15. Perzactly. Kabuki ... or kayfabe

Trump playing the heel and Barr's turn to get to play the 'face'.

Gross.

[onethatcares]

24. and the marks get to cheer both sides

see how tough billie is? did you see how the con stood up to his own AG? You're right but you left out, "What a shitshow".

[renate]

12. so sad, you suck

Being sane is the opposite of an excuse for your past behavior, Bill.

[ecstatic]

14. Barr, you're still going to prison.

I have no idea what sick game you're playing, but you're still complicit as fuck and I hope Biden's AG locks your fat ass up.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

17. That and Susan Collins' concern won't get you a stick of gum.

Michael, I think we can be sure this is just window dressing. Since it didn't involve Barr directly, he can leak this bs and then claim he is chaste and clean.

18. who cares? Barr has no more credibility than Capt. Asshat

[Hortensis]

19. Who knows, maybe someday he will. To save himself?

He knows enough.

[canetoad]

20. Good post but I don't agree with the subject line

Second hand quote. What's the time and date of this statement?

[empedocles]

21. Perhaps if barr said something publicly, before trump went public

[Hugin]

25. *YAWN* Eh, it's all part of the shtick...

Every time a stunt is pulled there's an announcement by Old Yeller's lawyer that he warned against it before he went and did it, whatever it was.
