AHA!
Matt Whitaker just explained what happened with the Roger Stone sentence recommendation.
Leftist US attorneys tried to set up Barr.
The editing is crap.https://t.co/eP3cPayTbO— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) February 14, 2020
Barr told them to NOT recommend the maximum sentence, and they said they wouldn't.
Then they recommended the maximum sentence, and Barr heard about it through the media.
They all resigned "in protest" of Barr announcing that the sentence was not what he wanted.— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) February 14, 2020
@realDonaldTrump immediately figured out what was going on and became Crazy Donald on Twitter.
He did this for several reasons.
One, he completely changed the story. If Trump had NOT tweeted, Barr would've been put in a very tough spot.— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) February 14, 2020
So the GOAL was to smear Barr by making it appear that when these salt-of-the-earth US Attorneys did their jobs, the corrupt Barr stepped in and ordered the sentence reduced because Roger Stone is connected to Trump.
What follows is my own deduction.— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) February 14, 2020
By becoming Crazy Donald, Trump shifted the focus to himself again, and Barr got to say, "I really don't appreciate him butting in."
If Trump HADN'T butted in, the plot to smear Barr would've been more successful.— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) February 14, 2020
Trump muddied the waters and gave Barr a chance to both address the issue at hand AND tell Trump that he wants him to stop tweeting.
Think of what total scumbags Holder and Lynch hired. These are lawless psychos, just like Obama.— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) February 14, 2020
Once again Trump showed that he can out-think anybody.
He changed the argument from Barr being corrupt to the president having the same First Amendment rights as the rest of us.
And the Democrats are left babbling nonsensically into thin air.
It took just one tweet.— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) February 14, 2020
It never occurred to me that FOUR federal prosecutors would do something like this, but now I know that they do.
Just so everyone in federal law-enforcement knows:
If you're a Democrat, I will never cooperate with you for any reason.
You've lost my support forever.— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) February 14, 2020
I would also add that Trump is VERY keen on revenge.
He serves it ice cold.
The Great Reckoning is coming. We don't know when, but it's coming.
Count on it.

Carlos, I mean, Wictor, only reinforced what I already knew. The important part of the interview is when Barr said that Trump has no contact with him on DOJ matters. People really need to watch the entire interview.
