Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Beat,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called U.S. Attorney General William Barr “despicable” for his performance during a House Judiciary hearing earlier.
Pelosi said, “I don’t know that they learned anything, but it demonstrated to the American people the contempt that he has for our democracy. In fact, one year ago, in July, we held the attorney general in contempt. His inconsistencies about sending — not sending law enforcement in when people invaded really the legislature in Michigan and then saying because demonstrators are out on the street, that’s violent. But it wasn’t violent for people to go in with guns into the legislature in Michigan. So the inconsistency of it all. And the fact that he was, shall we say, not forthcoming in his rejecting any thought that he would talk politics as the attorney general with the president of the United States.”

They didn’t let him speak then claimed he is despicable. This is a setup to try to ll discredit him as he prosecutes them.
When using the word forthcoming about someone speaking, it is necessary to allow the person to speak in order to determine whether or not they have been forthcoming.
But a great soundbite for the uninformed, ill-informed, don’t-want-to-be-informed.
Nancy is a mentally unbalanced old woman whose time has come and gone. Sometime in the next decade (sooner or later) she will be totally gone.
I watched the whole hearing. It was a comedy show.
Demtard; Did you do such and such?
Barr: Well, I...
Demtard: Shut up. Reclaiming my time.
Yeah that worked out great for them in 2016.
It’s a different world with different media.
doesn’t matter if something is taken down from a site all it matters is that it’s put up and a million people grab it and email or text it to everyone else or put it on the one of a bunch of new sites that don’t discriminate
I hope she gets hit by a transit bus.
I’d feel bad for the bus.
It was a set up from the beginning. I’m sure AG bar knew that going in. The whole thing was designed so that their stooges in the main stream media would have plenty of red meat for the news cycle. They’re afraid of this guy because they know that he knows what they are guilty of, I still have faith.
Typical Dem discussion style on display: bereft of facts, highly accusatory, incapable of dealing with responses.
Dems are childish cowards in the arena of ideas and are only capable of “throwing bombs” (figuratively, and now literally). They are to be dismissed. You cannot reason with a child, especially an out of control child.
It’s pretty hard to do when the Democrats take 4:50 of the allotted 5:00 to badger the witness
Barr came across as mild-mannered. Not at all like Kaleigh the Shillelagh, who would instantly go on the offensive. More like Dubya, letting insults and slander wash off his back, like a duck, as though they are not worthy of responses.
Hopefully, this drag through the mud has awakened in Barr the realization that if he doesn’t start squeaking a little bit in response to these lies, he will be totally discredited, through this election cycle and forever.
It’s difficult to find any Democrat that’s not a big mouth A-Hole.
If nothing else, Dems are persistent and show an amazing ability to unify around any idea directed at their opponent (doesn’t matter how ridiculous or dangerous it is).
So, it didn’t work in 2016? We’ll deluge the culture with more of our lies, we’ll marginalize our opponents via censorship or restricting speech, we’ll continue to control the classroom, the newsroom, the living room and, in time, we’ll have all the kool-aid drinkers we’ll need.
Flash-forward to 2020: How you like me now?
This woman is far beneath the dignity (and mental health required) of being Speaker.
AG Barr and Durham have lit the fuse on the bomb that is about to blow the Dems cover wide open. The Dems know it. They have no where nor anyway to run and hide from the information explosion that is about to engulf them. Indictments are coming. They used the hearing to try to discredit AG Barr, but they only succeeded in discrediting themselves. America was watching and America will vote on Nov. 3.
Okay, so forthright and forthcoming are the buzz words for today’s talking points. Nasty nutcases they are.
Spoken like a good democrat congress critter
You know what? Man support of them, even though it doesn’t have nearly the impact it did 50 years ago, still keeps them in the game for election time
A little early in the morning for my tastes but, drink one for me.
