Attorney General William Barr’s comment that he thinks “spying did occur” by intelligence agencies on the Trump campaign quickly reverberated outside the Senate committee hearing room, raising the hackles of top Democrats.
“The top law enforcement officer of the country should not casually suggest that those under his purview engaged in ‘spying’ on a political campaign,” House Intelligence Committee chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) said in a statement. “This type of partisan talking point may please Donald Trump, who rails against a ‘deep state coup,’ but it also strikes another destructive blow to our democratic institutions.”
Schiff’s fellow chairman Jerry Nadler (D-CA), head of the House Judiciary Committee, also immediately expressed his displeasure.
Barr somewhat softened his comment later on in the hearing, reclassifying “spying” as “unauthorized surveillance” which would rule out the FISA warrant of former Trump campaign aide Carter Page.

Mr. Barr is directly over the target.
The same Elmer ("Be veewy, veewy quiet. I hunting Wussians.") Schiff who causally suggested that the President of the United States was a Soviet double agent?
Well said, me too.
“Barr somewhat softened his comment later on in the hearing, reclassifying ‘spying’ as ‘unauthorized surveillance’”
Yeah, but Barr was messing with the guy. After that statement he asked something like, “Does that make you feel better?” It meant exactly the same thing and everyone but the retarded Rats understood that.
LOL
Thank you :)
Ha, Ha.
It wasn't over until the atomic bomb fell on Berlin. (s)
lol
will the republicans grow a spine and insist that action be taken against the conspirators including those at the very top.
Man, they are scared to death about what is to come. Pass the popcorn, this is about to get real good.
“This type of partisan talking point may please Donald Trump, who rails against a ‘deep state coup,’ but it also strikes another destructive blow to our democratic institutions.” (Pencil neck)

hahahahahaha!!!!!
Yeah, pencil neck, we wouldn’t want to strike any blows at our democratic institutions!
hahahahahahaha!!!
(I think pencil neck really means, let’s don’t hurt the rat party.)
The sound of tables turning...
Barr doesn’t just THINK there was spying on Trump’s campaign. You KNOW he has the goods. And that’s what scares the democrats.
Hey Stupid -- they weren't under Barr's purview. Guess again.
They were trying to overthrow a duly elected government. There has to be devastating consequences for this.
It is an interesting reaction. He didn't take the approach that any and all surveillance of the Trump campaign was justified, considering all the Russian collusion evidence.
yep......
words matter
“Man, they are scared to death about what is to come. Pass the popcorn, this is about to get real good.”
I believe you are Correct.
They will need to be put on suicide watch soon....................
obama worked harder trying to mess up Trump than he did being P.resident?
