BARR: In the situation of the president, who has constitutional authority to supervise proceedings: If, in fact, a proceeding was not well founded if it was a groundless proceeding, if it was based on false allegations the president does not have to sit there, constitutionally, and allow it to run its course.
The president could terminate that proceeding, and it would not be a corrupt intent because he was being falsely accused and he would be worried about the impact on his administration.
Thats important, because most of the obstruction claims that are being made here or episodes, do involve the exercise of the presidents constitutional authority. And we now know that he was being falsely accused.
RUSH: I mean, the explosion that happened on this sound bite! When he said this, these people, their heads had to explode. In this sound bite of 48 seconds, Barr is saying everybody knows the president was falsely accused. Therefore, if hes falsely accused and he knows he didnt do it and theres an investigation into what he didnt do, he cannot obstruct it, especially when he is exercising constitutional authority.
The president doesnt have to sit there and allow a bunch of lies to be told about things he did not do that would result in harm to his administration. He doesnt have to sit there and put up with it! If he knows that he is falsely accused and we all know now that he was, Barr said the fact that he is trying to stop an unfair and unjust process does not mean he obstructed. Folks, I guarantee you, this one bite there is the reason they are losing their minds last night and continuing into today.
Excellent read. Sometimes it’s easy to get lost in the tangles of false statements and obscured facts. Barr doesn’t get lost. He shakes out the tangles and makes the story simple so much so that I wonder why I was confused.
"NO".
Dick looked like someone just stomped on his puppy.
Ever notice when liberal heads explode, there is no brain splatter?
