democrats are getting frantic and truly desperate and I really fear for the physical safety of Attorney General Bill Barr. Just now Maria Bartiromo said that her sources tell her that Nadler will introduce a contempt of Congress resolution on Wednesday.
Eric Holder has taught us that such charges may be dismissed summarily and they have no meaning. Obama appointee Judge Amy Berman Jackson declined to hold Holder in contempt. Ater all, Holder was Obama's wing man.
You will remember that no democrat had objections to Holder as Attorney General was acting as Obama's personal attorney but now are offended by such accusations against Barr.
democrats are settting one trap after another for Barr. First they used Barr's appearance before the Senate Judiciary committee to assail him, insult him and impugn his integrity. It was shameful. Then Jerry Nadler demanded that Barr appear before the House Judiciary Committee and Barr agreed. Then after Barr agreed to appear, Nadler changed the rules to allow staff members to put Barr on trial-something entirely unprecedented. Barr then decided against appearing.
Nadler no doubt has calculated Barr would refuse and then started barking about Contempt charges.
Bill Barr is going to unravel the conspiracy against Donald Trump and democrats know it. They know he will expose the false premises upon which the investigations are premised. They know he will get to the bottom of the obama administration spying on Trump and the obama FBI opening a counter intelligence investigation on Americans.
And let's be clear- Barr did not lie.
The mindless, no-need-to-check-the-record allegation against Barr goes like this: The AG testified on April 9 that he had no idea why Special Counsel Mueller was upset over the way Barr’s March 24 letter described Mueller’s report; but, in fact, Barr knew exactly why Mueller was upset because he had received the latter’s March 27 letter complaining about Barr’s missive.CNN even went so far as to deceptively alter a video to make Barr appear dishonest.Now, here is the exchange on which the perjury allegation is based, with my italics highlighting key portions:
CRIST: Reports have emerged recently, General, that members of the special counsel’s team are frustrated at some level with the limited information included in your March 24th letter . . . that it does not adequately or accurately necessarily portray the report’s findings. Do you know what they’re referencing with that?
BARR: No, I don’t. I think — I think . . . I suspect that they probably wanted more put out, but, in my view, I was not interested in putting out summaries or trying to summarize because I think any summary, regardless of who prepares it, not only runs the risk of, you know, being under-inclusive or over-inclusive, but also, you know, would trigger a lot of discussion and analysis that really should await everything coming out at once. So I was not interested in a summary of the report. . . . I felt that I should state the bottom line conclusions and I tried to use Special Counsel Mueller’s own language in doing that.
When we look at the actual words of this exchange, Barr’s testimony is clearly accurate. And I don’t mean accurate in the hyper-technical, Clintonesque “depends on what the definition of is is” sense. I mean straightforward, unguarded, and evincing a willingness to volunteer information beyond what the question sought.
Crist did not ask a general question about Mueller’s reaction to Barr’s letter; he asked a specific question about the reaction of Mueller’s “team” to the Barr letter’s description of “the report’s findings.” Regarding the March 24 letter’s rendering of this bottom line — namely, Russia meddled, Trump did not collude, and Mueller failed to resolve the obstruction question — Barr said he did not know what Mueller’s staff was complaining about.

Now they want to Impeach Trump and Barr ,LOL
The commie left wants Barr gone because Barr is investigating the REAL criminals, the Democrats, and they know the jig is up, so they are trying to stop him before the report comes out
Yes, absolutely.
But use private, Trump-approved security. Unless and until the swamp is drained, nothing else will do in a situation like this.
The Democrats have also conveniently ignored that John Kennedy appointed his own brother as Attorney General in 1961!
Cabinet officers are generally protected by their own departments. Given how much any fedgov permanent employee should be trusted, Barr should have private backup. He shouldn’t trust even Secret Service should they be assigned.
Im starting to eat crow on this one as Barr, I thought was a Deep State muppet being buds with Mueller. This situation should not even be..
Holder had melanin privilege. Barr does not.
And Julian Assange
They know they can’t stop him, and he will get indictments on the Dems and their deep state cronies. The goal of the left here is to preemptively discredit him so they can claim his real indictments are just “political”. As usual everything they say is projecting what they actually do.
Barr should have gone, answered the committee member questions, then when they turned it over to staff he should have got up and started to leave. When Nadler said staff had questions Barr should have said “That’s fine, my staff is here to answer their questions”. Then he should have just left.
Many, many Arkancides are on the horizon.
Don't worry, there's plenty to go around. I ordered extra a long time ago.

I trust the US Marshal Service to protect the person of the Attorney General. Having no specific mission beyond the apprehension of escaped criminals, the protection of federal judges, the serving of federal papers and the protection of federal witnesses, they have no dog in this hunt.Unlike the Feebs I fully expect them to do their job.
I think the President is already on it. That guy sitting behind Barr throughout the hearings definitely looked like secret service. He never once stopped scanning the room.
As much as I don’t like some of Assange’s releases, I think we should consider whether an immunity deal should be considered, or at least mitigation of charges in exchange for cooperation. The Deep State must be destroyed.

Dems will try to kill Barr.
I hope by now they have taken an inventory of the FBI and the SS and determine who they can trust. If not, get the President’s Own, Marines, to run the security detail. It’s unfortunate that the DS is so full of rats, you do not know who to trust. This says nothing about Barr being able to find trusted prosecutors and agents to do the Spygate investigations.
