William Barr determined to unravel truth behind Russia lie
NY Post ^ | June 1, 2019 | Michael Goodwin

Posted on 06/02/2019 8:29:21 AM PDT by billorites

Looking for some great weekend reading? Look no further than the transcript of the CBS News interview with Attorney General William Barr.

Calling it a bombshell doesn’t do it justice. The interview is chock-full of one explosive comment after another about special counsel Robert Mueller, the media and Barr’s own investigation of the investigators.

Here are some nuclear-grade examples of what the AG has to say:

“So it was bogus, this whole idea that Trump was in cahoots with the Russians is bogus.”

“It’s hard to read some of the [FBI] texts and not feel that there was gross bias at work, and they’re appalling.”

“The use of foreign-intelligence capabilities and counterintelligence capabilities against an American political campaign to me is unprecedented and it’s a serious red line that’s been crossed.”

“The media reaction is strange. Normally the media would be interested in letting the sunshine in and finding out what the truth is.”

“One of the ironies today is that people are saying that it’s President Trump that’s shredding our institutions. I really see no evidence of that From my perspective the idea of resisting a democratically elected president and basically throwing everything at him and you know, really changing the norms on the grounds that we have to stop this president, that is where the shredding of our norms and our institutions is occurring.”

There’s much more, making the interview, on top of other things Barr has said, like Christmas, July 4th and Thanksgiving all rolled into one. A new era in Washington has begun. Hallelujah!

The old era will not be missed. Recall a revealing moment on

Jan. 3, 2017, just weeks before Trump took office, when Sen. Chuck Schumer warned the president-elect against feuding with the CIA...

Immediate court, immediate conviction, immediate death by public hanging or firing squad. Objecting lawyers must lose their lives as well

The tyranny of lawyers must be brought to an end

Another year of unraveling. Then decisions not to prosecute most involved. One or two sacrificial lambs will be undercharged, without formal arrests or perp walks. (denying we the people any sense of justice)

Then two years for trials, then another two until sentencing, just in time for the incoming Dem pres to pardon them.

We're out of time.

This was an act of treason, they should be hauled before military tribunals immediately, charged to the max, and executed. If they aren't the revenge taken with the next dem pres could spark another civil war.

Reminder...the Bundy Ranch Standoff happened 5 years ago now. FBI's case thrown out with prejudice. One itchy trigger finger would have started it all. We are OUT OF TIME.

I love AG Barr. The first time I saw him in that hearing, I knew he was a rare and honest man. He is not thinking of himself or his fate in all this. He is thinking of what the law is under our Constitution and what the truth is. Looks like he got a lot more out of those Bible studies than Mueller did.

A not unrealistic scenario.

After all is said and done, there will be a lot more said than done. The Swamp will drag this thing out for years and years.

Despite many promises we have yet to see even ONE PAGE of the FISA abuse declassified.

Comey, McCabe, Stroyk and Paige will likely be in trial by next April. Election year. Figure Brennan and Clapper and others soon after.

What does the Bundy ranch have to do with the attempted overthrow of the Trump Admin by the deep state?

Then he’s the Lone Ranger in Washington. Every one else in the corrupt Swamp is only thinking of themselves.

So no one's locked up, just a big media show. Thanks for literally nothing, Barr.

I believe that this Russian interference was a hustle to allow corrupt partisan hacks at the FBI and CIA to covertly spy on the Trump campaign.

Not necessarily for indictable behavior.

The campaign aides talk to other campaign aides. Those conversations, under a FISA warrant, would be mined for critical campaign tactics with little concern for the Russians.

Any idiot can see that the rants at CNN and MSNBC have far more impact on the election than some back door Russian cheap shots.

Clearly the heads of the FBI illegally used law enforcement tactics to spy and then leak to the media, dirt on Trump.

Stay safe, AG Barr.

I agree. His life might be in danger. There are lots of left wing nut cases out there.

They don't have to hang all of the lawyers to make the other fall in line.

Just a few would get the others properly calibrated for the coming cleansing of America. /sarc
