Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday said Attorney General William Barr committed a crime by lying to lawmakers during his testimony on Capitol Hill.
"What is deadly serious about it is the attorney general of the United States of America was not telling the truth to the Congress of the United States. That's a crime," Pelosi said during a press conference.
Her comments come a day after Barr was grilled by Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee over his handling of special counsel Robert Mueller's report on Russian election interference.
Barr was roundly criticized for his performance during the hearing, which came shortly after reports emerged that Mueller had expressed frustration with Barr's memo summarizing the report's key findings.

Yesterday at the hearing it was hilarious when AG Barr said that to DaNang Dick, he knew he’d been had.
These people are starting to go nuts because Trump and Barr are starting to prosecute their minions. And the minions will turn to avoid jail time. That’s why the Drats are escalating the rhetoric.
The “Barr lied” narrative was pre-planned after Barr’s initial testimony when they realized there was no collusion or obstruction in the Mueller report.
She just burped it up on queue this morning after the Dems forced a no show with the rule change after the fact that staffers would be doing the questioning.
Yes, DaNang Dick walked right into that trap.
Falsely accusing someone of a crime is Slander per se. Pelosi was not on the floor of the house when she slandered Barr. He should sue her.
The lies from the DEMs will continue until a few of their leaders are punished for telling them. Nothing is getting fixed in this country until a lot of casualties occur. In general, conservatives don’t have the stomach for this type of revolt, so we’ll just continue to be lied to and to incrementally lose what remains of our freedoms.
Yes.
The perjury trap raising it ugly head once again.

Trying to take out Barr is obstruction of justice.
Yep, bingo. They know what is coming so they’re setting the stage for their defense.
It’s so evil. You have to give evil credit, it’s certainly not stupid. The second the first indictment happens they’ll be saying PDJT has “weaponized” the DOJ. As if they’re not the ones that have done so already. It’s disgusting to watch.
This is all a last attempt to keep the focus elsewhere but they know it isn’t working. It’s so obvious why they’re going so over the top. They have to, there’s no other course of action...but they also know they’re just delaying the inevitable.
*smirk*
These people are insane.

They are deranged. And they are dangerous.
Barr will not cower to these rabid radicals. His steadfast personal courage should be a lesson for ALL Republicans, but alas they are what they are.
I am absolutely convinced that the Founding Father’s messed up when they did not include Term Limits out of the gate.
Without Term Limits we are left with a Ruling Class which equals Tyranny. All about their Political Power and not about Representing the People and their needs.
Good luck for these people to ever vote themselves a Term Limit. Won’t happen
If Trump and his supporters are so evil, how is it that there’s a socialist still breathing?
I still haven’t figured out exactly what the lie was. Did she say what it was?
I’ve had a few so all I can post Is F U NAZI PELOSI
I don’t know either but it may be something to do with the letter Mueller wrote and AG Barr was questioned about yesterday.
This is exactly why so many are fight for a convention of the states, this is what it would take to make a change to the constitution for term limits!! Many people believe that this could also end up being a disaster if the Dems ended up taking the damn thing over and including changes to the constitution that NONE of us would ever want to see happen!!! This is the ONLY way we would ever be able to see term limits which we DEFINITELY NEED!! The founders NEVER thought of term limits because life expectancy in those days was VERY YOUNG!! Today people live into their 80’s and 90’s and these BASTARDS are carried out of their seats on stretchers dead!! Our founders could not have foreseen medical miracles we have today!!!
