"Barr Barr Hutt" betrays America

By dropping charges against convicted Michael Flynn, charges, by the way, that Flynn admitted and confessed to, Attorney General Barr Barr Hutt has betrayed the offices of all government attorneys, as well as the basic "rule of law" in order to deliver yet another favor to his buddy, IQ45.

Worse yet, this is the second time he has gone to bat for his buddy, going against the requests and actions of the prosecutors handling the cases. One of those attorneys, Jonathan Kravis, resigned his post in protest towards Barr Barr's actions.

"Three months ago, I resigned from the Justice Department after 10 years as a career prosecutor. I left a job I loved because I believed the department had abandoned its responsibility to do justice in one of my cases, United States v. Roger Stone. At the time, I thought that the handling of the Stone case, with senior officials intervening to recommend a lower sentence for a longtime ally of President Trump, was a disastrous mistake that the department would not make again.

I was wrong."
