Obama alumni. Doesn’t that mean they don’t work there anymore?

Where were these jokers when....

Attorney General Eric Holder was held in criminal contempt of Congress on Thursday on a 255 to 67 vote. Holder is the first Attorney General in U.S. history to be held in contempt by a full house vote. On a separate vote, members of Congress voted 258 to 95 to approve a civil contempt charge against Holder.

Piffle. Barr has not only the right but the duty to see that sentencing is based on actual crime and not political revenge. It is his job to be boss of those prosecutors.

The jury is out on Bill Barr.

The Democrats accuse Barr of being Trump's hatchet man.

Those disappointed in the DOJ's declining to prosecute McCabe and others believe he is a swamp creature.

Those who view Washington as a battleground of competing bureaucratic kingdoms believe Barr is an institutionalist.

Those who are of more sanguine nature believe Barr is a constitutionalist.

Those of us who are desperate for the rule of law to be restored have not quite lost faith in Atty. Gen. Barr.

The matter will not be decided on Barr's public comments, rather it will be decided by his actions, especially whether any meaningful indictments are returned.

They're setting up the next fake whistleblower with help from the House. I just read that they are in the process of creating new and broader whistleblower rules.

My only question is when Impeachment II starts, before or after Barr's March 31 congressional appearance.

Nothing he does will satisfy them. If he resigned they’d say he was admitting his wrongdoing. Thuck fem.

Folks here are complaining about Barr's inaction on McCabe.
