Attorney General Bill Barr is doing his very best to morph the Justice Department into President Donald Trumps personal law firm but he still hasnt managed to validate Trumps conspiracy theories on Obama-gate/Spy-gate/Unmask-gate or any other gate and the President is Not Happy About It.
...................................
Im not happy with all of the evidence I have, I can tell you that, he added. Im not happy.
Trumps comments came after Barr informed Republican lawmakers last week that the results of U.S. Attorney John Durhams investigation into the FBIs 2016 Russia-Trump probe would not come out before Election Day, a major blow to Trump and his allies desperate attempts to gain political advantage.
Additionally, the unmasking probe Barr had commissioned in response to Trumps conspiracy theories about Michael Flynn also ended up being a total bust, having been quietly concluded on Tuesday night without a single charge or arrest.
...............................
I think its really a horrible thing that theyre allowed to get away when they say no indictments, they actually said no indictments before the election, he said.......................................

Barr has failed to order his DOJ to fabricate and produce a sham to get the Pig's political enemies arrested.

(4,723 posts)Trump is so egotistical that he likely thinks he is smarter than Barr. Barr is an evil man, far smarter than Trump. Barr could jam up him really well.

(19,131 posts)Now Barr will have to suffer the twit wrath of Trump's thumbs. Not a wrathful tweet! Oh no! Why these unapologetic sycophants are so afraid of Trump's twit wrath is so beyond me....... It's not like any of them are going to have a job after January 20, 2021 anyway. I'd be much more worried about the investigations by Democrats into their disgusting conduct than tweets from the Twit-in-Chief.

(1,975 posts)He thinks the DOJ can be used like The National Enquirer with badges. He doesn't understand "it doesn't work that way". You can't fabricate charges, and you can't file "misleading" charges only to "drop" read correct) them at a later date like some tabloid publishing a retraction on page 37. There is clearly "nothing there" with the Russia investigation, the unmasking or any subsequent investigation completed by Mueller. The best they could come up with was an altered e-mail on a fourth re-application of a FISA request on Carter Paige and some other agents not being fans of Trump(the horror!!!). Its clear Barr and Co. told Trump there is nothing remotely actionable from a federal prosecution standpoint and they seem to be having problems even crafting a "Comey-like" response, scolding the prior administration. He's losing his mind because he isn't getting his way.
