William Barr is in deep trouble (CNN Alert)

(CNN) — Attorney General William Barr did two strange things between the time he received special counsel Robert Mueller's report on Russian interference in the 2016 election and when he released it to Congress and the public.

The first came on March 24 when, two days after receiving the Mueller report, Barr released a four-page summary letter in which he made clear his conclusion that the report found no collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians and that Mueller hadn't made any recommendation as to whether President Donald Trump should be charged with obstructing justice.

The second came on the morning of April 18 when Barr, with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein by his side, held a press conference to reiterate those findings -- in remarkably Trumpian language -- 90 minutes before actually making a redacted version of the report public.

On Tuesday night, those two moves came into far sharper -- and more troubling -- focus when it was revealed that Mueller sent a letter to Barr on March 27 expressing concern about the ways in which Barr's summary document described the evidence surrounding obstructive behavior.

Coup plotters have to end up in prison and that must include hillary. She has committed too many felonies to count. Charge her with half of what could be charged and watch every bit of this nonsense stop on a dime. Save the other potential charges as backup to guarantee she sees major prison time. Failure to prosecute her neans the end of the USA as we know it.

We are seeing a last ditch desperate effort by the Democrats to revive the long dead collusion delusion. The fake “Mueller disappoint letter”, the failed attempt for staff lawyers to depose Barr in the house hearings, and now this, are all a coordinated effort to paint Barr as a corrupt Trump stooge. It will fail, and may, in fact, be the last gasp of a dead corpse.

CNN, the network only morons believe, now is intent on taking out A.G. Barr. Everything in the next ten days will be dedicated to that cause. Why? Because they are deathly afraid that he will investigate and expose King Barack I and Hillary Clinton in their coup attempt.

The only way these BS attacks stop is to counter strike and expose the corrupt FBI / MSM nexus. I want names of the media goons who pushed fake stories on behalf of their FBI handlers.

They are scared to death. He used the word “Spying” referencing what they did to the Trump campaign.

He must be destroyed.
