Eric Holder on Barr’s handling of Mueller report: ‘He’s making mistakes’
Suntimes ^ | 4/19/19 | Maudlyne Ihejirika

It has pained U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to watch how the White House and Justice Department handled Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller’s two-year investigation - particularly U.S. Attorney General William Barr’s actions after the long-awaited report landed.

Holder, attorney general from 2009 to 2015 under President Barack Obama, said Barr’s move to summarily absolve the president before releasing the report, both in his summary to Congress and in a press conference this week, is incongruent with the independence expected of that department.

“He’s making mistakes. The attorney general of the United States is the people’s lawyer, not the president’s lawyer,” said Holder, who keynoted the “Justice Demands” Gala of the James B. Moran Center for Youth Advocacy at Mayne Stage in Rogers Park on Thursday.

“I’m glad I’m not in D.C., given the events of this week,” said Holder

Roger Stone got a SWAT team. This dipstick deserves much more.

Holder is scared!
He is sending this as a message to his ObamaBots....
“Stop this, at any cost from going any further!”

The right people sure are mad at Barr, but there are several people here itching for Barr to be as “effective” as Sessions, so they can say, “I told you so!” or something.

These subversives from the corrupt Odungo administration KNOW they can lie, cheat, demean the right and never go back into the shadows and into the rat holes they SHOULD be hiding in. They know because the CORRUPT press will cover for them and their idiotic spewings 24/7 and never let it see the light of day to the public (which in some cases is totally clueless). Makes me sick. Pray for Bob Barr and our President. The long knives are out for both of them......;(

Wasn’t Holder held in contempt of Congress while serving as “the Peoples’ Lawyer?”

His opinions are worthless.

As my previous post show, I do not trust barr. He is a founding member of the deep state, a bushie and jeb supporter. But I like the fact that he is being pushed into a corner where if he doesn’t deliver and uncover the corruption, he will be viewed as a Trump puppet forever. But I guess it is also possible that if he completes the frame job on Trump, which is the goal of the deep state, he will be elevated to a spot on Mt. Rushmore.

I wonder if Romney is lashing out at Trump at the same time for the same reason

The DOJ and its now-corrupt investigation force, the FBI, is the political nerve center of Federal Government.

The role a real AG should serve in America’s present-day corrupt deep-state and DC swamp is political enforcer / palace guard / consigliere for the President.

That’s what Holder and Lynch did for Obama, helping him wage political warfare. Obama even made sure they were black, to give an added layer of loyalty.

What did Trump have? Jeff Sessions.
