Veteran investigative journalist Carl Bernstein said his sources are telling him that Attorney General William Barr is preparing to push a "deep state" conspiracy to protect President Trump.
During an appearance Thursday on CNN, the famed Watergate sleuth reacted to controversy about an intelligence community whistleblower who filed a complaint alleging Trump improperly leveraged military aid to encourage Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.
Trump attacking the whistleblower's sources as being "close to a spy" and alluding to capital punishment, Bernstein said, provided "real time" evidence of the president's corruption. Additionally, Bernstein said the release of the Trump-Zelensky call transcript and the whistleblower's complaint provided more "terrible evidence of the president’s corruption, of his willingness to undermine the free electoral system in this country, to involve foreign powers in our election, and also to try and get involved at the president’s behest there."
The complaint and the notes of the July 25 call, both released to the public this week, show Trump urged Zelensky to speak with his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani and Barr about investigating the matter related to Joe Biden, who is now a leading Democratic candidate for president.
The Justice Department denies Barr ever spoke to Trump about it, and the attorney general has resisted Democratic calls for him to recuse himself from Ukraine-related investigations, but Bernstein insisted that Trump's comments are proof of the attorney general's "conniving" to put out a narrative about sinister forces within the federal government bureaucracy taking aim at Trump.
The Justice Department also received a criminal referral about a potential campaign finance violation in relation to Trump's phone conversation with Zelensky, but declined to take action after a review.

” Attorney General William Barr is preparing to push a “deep state” conspiracy to protect President Trump. “
Good.
It is time.
The USA should be kept in the loop regarding Crowdstrike. It was not inappropriate for Pres. Trump to ask for any info they might find. As a matter of national security, our intelligence agencies do need to know what was in those e-mails that Hillary deleted.
Wrong, Bernstein has been wrong about everything for a lot more than 3 years!!!
What sources are leaking to Carl Bernstein?
Unfortunately Bernstien has been wrong about everything the last 3 30 years.
“We’re doing all we can to protect Hunter Btiden” : the media.
Bernstein's 'sources' get their stuff from paid detectives, corrupt 'intelligence' traitors, and George Soros' minions - then it's passed on to Mr. Gullible who thinks he's getting it from a well connected friend... IMHO...
BREAKING NEWS: Man who sees everything as another Watergate sees this as another Watergate! Film at 11!
“Veteran investigative journalist Carl Bernstein said his sources are telling him that Attorney General William Barr is preparing to push a “deep state” conspiracy to protect President Trump.”
which is what the Whistleblower Conspiracy is REALLY all about: Deep State insiders trying to protect the Deep State outsiders (Ohr, Mccabe, Comey, Brenner, Clapper, et. al.) by preemptively weakening Barr and Trump before these indictments from Barr’s long term investigation come down, claiming that they’re “retaliation” for the Whistleblower Conspiracy itself ...
And then? And Then? Along came Jones or something.
It looks that way... not so much an attack on Trump as a means to try and paint Barr as a partisan, [unlike Comey and McCabe and Steele and the Ohrs and Page and Strzok and Brennan the Communist...]
Don’t forget that Bernstein is a “red diaper baby” and proud of his parents’ membership in the Soviet-control, Stalinist “Communist Party USA”. It’s in his book.
For some you can take them out of the Party, but the Party never leaves you.

An uncontrolled pecker and mouth
Earth to Bernstein,get a clue
Long past time.
However, I don't have much confidence in Bagpipes Barr.
When he stated (publicly) that Epstein committed "suicide", it confirmed for me that Barr is part of the D.C. cover-up.
The Viktor Shokin statement unearthed by John Solomon should drive a stake in the Ukraine hoax. Biden is guilty in the quid pro quo crime he committed against the Ukraine justice system to protect his son:
Someone please wake me when the “frog marches” start. I’m beginning to feel like Rumpelstiltskin.
> And then? And Then? Along came Jones or something.
Yeah, I know the feeling, but this time the Dems are really trying to get out in front of this. They look really scared. The media as well.
