ATTORNEY GENERAL BILL BARR: As I said in my confirmation hearing, I am going to be reviewing both the genesis and the conduct of intelligence activities directed at the Trump campaign during 2016. And a lot of this has already been investigated, and a substantial portion of it has been investigated and is being investigated by the office of the Inspector General, but one of the things I want to do is pull everything together from the various investigations that have gone on, including on the Hill and in the [Justice] Department, and see if there are any remaining questions to be addressed.




SEN. JEANNE SHAHEEN: And can you share with us why you feel a need to do that?

BARR: Well, you know, for the same reason we're worried about foreign influence in elections, we want to make sure that during elections -- I think spying on a political campaign is a big deal. It's a big deal.

If Barr follows through he will be the most aggressive AG since Bobby Kennedy.

Ha!

More like John Mitchell!

That Sarah Sanders.

Such a joker.

And posting her comments as if they had cogency makes you a joker, too.

Sarah has replaced Ann Coulter in Kid’s fantasies.

Barr is clear in which precedents he’s ignoring though he’s still mum on what exactly he’s trying to cover up.

He’s not trying to cover it up very hard, or else he has been fitted with some Devin Nunes sized clown shoes.

Under republican questioning Barr offers that Mueller has the report and congress can simply get it from him when they tire of redaction kabuki. Barr must be really sick of trump and his toadies. That didn’t take long.

Right wing fascist thugs are having a hard time finding good legal help these days.

Wouldn't it be funny if Obama and Clinton finished up behind bars and not Trump?

See Bernie is making noises about free healthcare for all Americans.

If the Democrats promise and can deliver that they'll walk it in at the next election.

If Trump's smart he'll beat them to it.

When mrs arafura was in America recently she stayed with a nice lady who suffers from arthritis in her hands, feet etc.
She left a tube of gel with the lady...it works wonders, gives her relief.
We buy it in Australia for about $20 at the chemist without a prescription.
The American lady aged 64 said it would cost her $97 - $320 on prescription...and that's for the generic.

'King' Trump needs to wave his magic gold wand and fix that, and the healthcare system.
Trumpcare he needs to introduce...he'd win the next election in a landslide.

He needs to tour the nation in his gold carriage...if he doesn't have one he needs to get one...and ask the battlers how he can help them live better lives with healthcare.
Arthritis gel for $20 bucks would be a great start.

Try Reuters.  They have actual news.  And it's not owned by anyone belonging to an American political party.

There is never a shortage of narrow-minded ignorant opinionated morons to select from.

...or Russian trolls who do uncanny imitations.

Barr does seem to be ignoring the legal precedent he himself mentioned to Sen. Capito.
Jaworski set that precedent over 40 years ago.

Barr has made it clear early that he is a Chump for Trump. Don’t expect any fairness when dealing with this little porker.
