Signs Barr and Durham are getting close to Obama
Flopping Aces ^ | 12-24-19 | DrJohn

This was entire predictable and expected. The long knives have come out for AG Bill Barr and US Attorney John Durham, in the form of veiled threats from Eric Holder and the NY Times (and of course every nitwit democrat in Congress).

It seems that the President, i.e. this President, is not entitled to equal justice under the law.

Earlier this month Eric Holder, having no access to the facts, wrote an editorial ripping into Barr:

Holder, who served as attorney general under President Barack Obama, wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post where he said he was “reluctant to publicly criticize” President Trump’s attorney general but felt the need to speak out after Barr issued public statements about disagreements he had with Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s report on alleged FISA abuse. He also criticized Barr’s remarks from a Federalist Society event where he said the founders intended for one man to lead the executive branch, the president.

“Attorney General William P. Barr has made a series of public statements and taken actions that are so plainly ideological, so nakedly partisan and so deeply inappropriate for America’s chief law enforcement official that they demand a response from someone who held the same office,” Holder wrote.

Holder condemned Barr for criticizing the FBI and the rest of the intelligence community for their handling of the investigation into Trump’s campaign, writing, “And as someone who spent six years in the office Barr now occupies, it was infuriating to watch him publicly undermine an independent inspector general report — based on an exhaustive review of the FBI’s conduct — using partisan talking points bearing no resemblance to the facts his own department has uncovered.”

Barack Obama's self-professed wing man also tore into John Durham with a veiled threat:
He also issued a threat of sorts to U.S. Attorney John Durham, who is investigating the origins of the FBI’s investigation into the Trump campaign and its ties to Russia. Durham spoke out after Horowitz dropped his report to say he disagrees with some of the findings, echoing Barr. Holder wrote, “Good reputations are hard-won in the legal profession, but they are fragile; anyone in Durham’s shoes would do well to remember that, in dealing with this administration, many reputations have been irrevocably lost.”
There it is- if Durham finds anyone other than Trump guilty of something his reputation is gone, "irregardless" of the facts.

Then comes the knee slapper:

“The American people deserve an attorney general who serves their interests, leads the Justice Department with integrity and can be entrusted to pursue the facts and the law, even — and especially — when they are politically inconvenient and inconsistent with the personal interests of the president who appointed him,” Holder wrote.
Holder must have written this fast and furious.

Durham dared dispute the summary of the IG report:

“I have the utmost respect for the mission of the Office of Inspector General and the comprehensive work that went into the report prepared by Mr. Horowitz and his staff.  However, our investigation is not limited to developing information from within component parts of the Justice Department.  Our investigation has included developing information from other persons and entities, both in the U.S. and outside of the U.S.  Based on the evidence collected to date, and while our investigation is ongoing, last month we advised the Inspector General that we do not agree with some of the report’s conclusions as to predication and how the FBI case was opened.”
The NY Times was there to shame Durham for it:
Others have been less willing to give Mr. Durham the benefit of the doubt, and it is clear he has placed his reputation for impartiality on the line by accepting this latest assignment.
And here's why Durham is not qualified for the job:
Wearing gunmetal-frame glasses and a drooping goatee, he rises early and dresses in the dark, often mismatching his suit jackets and pants.
Holder's tantrum is a signal that Barr and Durham are probably getting close to Obama. After all, he was (and is) Obama's wing man. It was Obama who allowed 17 intel agencies to spread data among themselves in an effort to smear Trump.

Holder cannot even spell the word “integrity”, let alone have an iota of it. He is in his element down in the oozing malodorous slime with his buddy Odungo and the rest of the phalanx of evil.

The Kenyan from Indonesia is safe because both parties assisted in his usurpation and that will never see the light of day.

Probably the best example of "Pot--kettle--black" I've ever seen and made by by the world's largest hypocrite to boot!

At the rate this is going, we’ll learn that Hillary’s 30,000 missing emails include the edits on the Steele dossier and notes on a weekly group chat between Obama, HRC, George Soros and Brennan.

I do NOT agree with the premise that 17 intelligence agencies spread information among themselves to smear DJT. There is no document supporting this proposition, most intelligence agencies would NOT have the mission to do so, and there is only proof that 3-4 agencies engaged in it at the highest levels: CIA, FBI, State Dept, and NSA (of which ADM Mike Rogers shut it down).

This is the same lie that keeps getting repeated.

Wouldn’t it be a glorious day when the One, his minions and all his enablers exposed and dealt with accordingly as our founders would expect.

The big problem is that President Trump is virtually alone in the District of Corruption in not being complicit in the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

And going too “fast and furious” after him would TOTALLY alienate a segment of the voting public Trump needs in order to win re-election in 2020!

They spread the information to more agencies so they could leak from more places and go undetected.

The week before , give or take , Obama set the rules of sharing information to include all 17 intelligence agencies, not that as you say they did, but it was used to (upset the chess board) and make tracking leaks and traitorous actors very hard.

Hello!?

Holder didn’t write any of this.

He was informed an OpEd would be published in his name and given a copy to prepare for questions.

The deep state ministry of communications ghost writes all broadcast narrative scripting and print materials including articles and books.

Obama himself is at the top of this deep state cabal and is ordering the threats together with Clapper, Brennan and Comey, others...

Irregardless was popularized in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its increasingly widespread spoken use called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that "there is no such word." There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.

The Kenyan is protected. It would not matter if they caught 0bama cashing checks from Russia or North Korea with bribery on the foot note space it would not matter. He is guilty of 2 counts of forgery that we know of and yet no one held him accountable
