  • Atty General Barr repeat performance.

    A new report out from (Just Security.org) documents Atty general Barr during the GHW Bush administration covering up illegal activity commited by that administration by using his same method of giving his own summary of the conclusions (which turned out to be a complete cover up) that came out in the investigation of the Noriega matter. When Congress subpoenaed the complete investigative report nearly 2 years later it was revealed that Barrs redacted the most damning parts of the report.

    Gee, he used the same exact formula, the same exact language. Can't wait to here the spin now from you Trump/Barr supporters as to why we should trust Barr this time!

    "[Attorney General Barr is] being as forthcoming as he can, and so this notion that he’s trying to mislead people, I think is just completely bizarre."
    -Assistant Attorney General Rod Rosenstein

    Anyway, you might want to actually read your source carefully, because the matter in question wasn't a summary of an investigation, it was a summary of Barr's own legal opinion that he had submitted to the White House in confidence. There was nothing "damning" or "damaging" in it. It was just Barr offering his own legal insight.

    So...

          Do ya think that Mueller wouldn't notice if Barr was covering up his investigation?

            Or that Rosenstein would allow his name to be explicitly tied to and defend a legal opinion that he disagreed with?

              Why didn't Tassman or the democrats demand the full FBI investigation report when Comey said that Hillary was guilty but couldn't be prosecuted?

                      I would say it was like you were reading Jimmy's mind, but we all know that can't be true, he doesn't have one of his own apparently.

                        He simply doesn't seem to have the mental capacity to come up with this stuff on his own, and when challenged, he never seems able to defend his goofy positions, so I just KNEW he was simply repeating the same old tired garbage from some liberal "talking points memo" somewhere.

                        It hurts to be this smart! I'm gonna go take some aspirin.


                        (and I wonder if that's why he so often leaves off the "source" and tells us to look it up ourselves)

                          I remember when the Mueller collusion investigation started Jim said we should all accept Mueller's report. I agreed, I wonder if Jim still does.

                            ONLY because his talkingpointsmemo folks haven't given up hope that Barr is lying, and the report is going to scorch Trump's earth.

                              It would be close to divine intervention: Trump is exonerated and those who invented the collusion narrative go to jail.
