Attorney General William Barr Steps Down With Outstanding Record of Accomplishments
Heritage Foundation ^ | Dec 21st, 2020 | Hans A. von Spakovsky

Attorney General William Barr will leave office Wednesday the same way he came in—as a class act.

Barr offered a refreshing contrast to President Barack Obama’s former attorney general, Eric Holder, who characterized himself as Obama’s wingman.

Barr understands that his first loyalty is to the Constitution and the rule of law, not the president.

Attorney General William Barr will leave office Wednesday the same way he came in—as a class act. He carried out his role as the consummate professional who followed the law, administered justice, and forged ahead—despite relentlessly unfair and unjustified criticism leveled at him.

Barr offered a refreshing contrast to President Barack Obama’s former attorney general, Eric Holder, who characterized himself as Obama’s wingman. Barr understands that his first loyalty is to the Constitution and the rule of law, not the president. He knows that the attorney general must be an objective, apolitical enforcer of our nation’s laws.

Barr certainly cannot be characterized as the president’s wingman. Consider the anger expressed from the right over the fact that Barr kept the investigation of Joe Biden’s son Hunter secret until after the November election.

Barr has conducted himself as an ethical professional, adhering to the longstanding rules inside the Justice Department that require maintaining the confidentiality of criminal investigations to avoid damaging the lives and reputations of individuals over unproven claims and charges, as well as not harming the ability to conduct thorough criminal investigations.

Many conservatives criticized other actions taken by Barr, such as his support for FBI Director Christopher Wray and his statement that he had not seen evidence of widespread voter fraud sufficient enough to change the outcome of last month’s presidential election.

ROFL. Heritage Foundation is turning Barr into a saint. Soon he will get a halo, and his sainthood will be complete. Living forever as a Deep State Saint aka People's Devil.

You have to remember that the Heritage Foundation, much like the NRA thrives on the cocktail circuit and never really wants to solve problems, they just want to seem important, attending cocktail parties and have a good time. So organizations like the NRA and the heritage Foundation are really just a part of the uniparty and the Deep State bullsh@t dynamic that continues.. funded by us taxpayers

Yep, the kool aid was bad on this one.

He was a Ruby Ridge sycophant of antifa rhetoric, looking under every rock for a Nazi while communists and islamic terrorists were dancing around on his face.

The schizophrenia is real.

Heritage Foundation is setting itself up to get money from the RINO establishment. We are finding out through this insanity who can be trusted and sorry to say they look like they are one!

as a class act

He was a 300 pound swamp rat, known to all as such except for the confused and dazed members of the Nest.

There was never a debate with the Cultists, it was more that they explained away a slow walking of justice as Barr cobbling together indictments that never came.

The DOJ "Secret, Sealed Indictments" reached what number? I lost count after people said there 100,000.

“Comservatism, Inc.” is trying to reassert itself as the loyal opposition in a Uniparty regime. The Heritage Foundation, along with National Review, the broadcasters on the Salem Network, the NRA, etc., were upstaged by Trump. Now that he appears to be going away, they are trying to take back their former role as the Washington Generals to the Democrats’ Harlem Globetrotters.
