The U.S. Justice Department on Thursday defended its handling of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report examining contacts between President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russia as it faced increased pressure to make the document public.The department said Attorney General William Barr must strike confidential information from the nearly 400-page document as reports surfaced in the news media that members of Mueller’s team were unhappy with the way Barr had characterized its main conclusions.House of Representatives Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, already pressing Barr to release the entire unredacted report to Congress, expanded his demands. Nadler, a Democrat, called on Barr to immediately release summaries of the document prepared by Mueller’s team. He also asked Barr to hand over communications between the special counsel’s team and the department about the report.

The Democrats wanted a Special Councel. They got James Comey's best friend. They staffed it with hard core Democrats. They counselled us to accept the findings. The Special Counsel found NOTHING. NOTHING.

No indictments. No report should be released. Why? If there are no crimes, why spread unsubstantiated rumors. Innocent until proven guilty. Donald Trump is innocent. The Democrats can pound sand. Sue us all the way to the Supreme Court.

Of course various persons who worked on the final report were “unhappy” about the way AG Barr characterized it. But they could not make a convincing case for any other conclusion.

Sit on it, Fonzi.

Under pressure from the fake news, and their enablers, the Democrat Party.

If you think AG Barr is under “pressure” , then you are crazier than Tom *unts dog.

Barr is not losing even a wink of sleep. He has faced much tougher opponents than Needler, A damn Shitt, and Nancified Pelosifer. I would imagine AG Barr sees these idiots as an unending source of humor.The law is completely on Barr’s side of this witch hunt fence.

“Increased pressure”... “under pressure”.

Narrative writing, not reporting.

Schiff has a huge amount of political capital invested in Russian collusion.....his political career hinges on it.

As Mueller was investigating, Schiff went on TV some 250 times pushing the narrative.

Now he’s left holding the bag......but he’s not giving up.

What will he tell his constituents back in Cali?

I screwed up?

BOL.......

“Nadler ... also asked Barr to hand over communications between the special counsel’s team and the department about the report.”

Barr should tell Nadler to shut up and go get in an all-you-can-eat buffet line.

There’s no there there Jerry. Give it up and do something useful for a change.

Same to Neal on President Trump’s taxes.
