With reports that U.S. Attorney John Durham’s probe into potential FBI and Justice Department misconduct in launching the Russia investigation has been elevated to a criminal inquiry, enabling Durham to subpoena witnesses and file charges, there is a new effort afoot to discredit Attorney General William Barr.
Two key Democrats leading the impeachment inquisition against President Donald Trump, Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Adam Schiff, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, responded by slamming Barr, who appointed Durham, as a “vehicle for Trump’s political revenge.”
“These reports, if true, raise profound new concerns that the Department of Justice under Attorney General William Barr has lost its independence and become a vehicle for President Trump’s political revenge,” the pair said in a joint statement. “If the Department of Justice may be used as a tool of political retribution, or to help the President with a political narrative for the next election, the rule of law will suffer.”
Nadler Tweet:
"If the Department of Justice may be used as a tool of political retribution, or to help the President with a political narrative for the next election, the rule of law will suffer new and irreparable damage.

Somehow I don’t think Barr gives a rat’s patoot what these two clowns have to say.
Schiff is nervous....................
This is now a full on war. No trophies for second place. Warrants and arrests need to happen soon.
I thought this would be drawn out over the election cycle, but the criminal dems will counter strike if this is not quelled quickly.
Observing the reaction of the media and the Dems to the CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION OF THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION, I’d say that indictments are coming.
This is my call for Nadler and Schiff to be hung by their necks until they are DEAD.
After a fair trial, of course.
Just as fair as what they’re doing to President Trump, I mean.
24 seconds apart!!! (-:
I have a feeling that when Trump hired Barr he asked him two questions; Will you investigate the potential crimes involving the spying on my campaign AND will you take any criminal activity to a grand jury. Barr answered yes to both. Trump knowing he has nothing to hide and knowing crimes were committed was satisfied to let Barr loose.
They are trying to demonize ALL aspects of the government that doesn’t agree with the democrat party.
The two incipient Alzheimer sufferers need to tell that to Obama ......... and the Clintons.
Fingers crossed.
You guys are SOOO caught and now your tits are caught in the wringer. So kick and scream all you want, you’re going down!
Most of us want to see them hanged... public hanging... with media cameras
Leftists can blow it out their arse. How’s that for feisty?
Barr is 69 years old. I don’t think he aspires to any future in government beyond this. I don’t think he can be swayed or intimidated for that reason.
Yes! Impeach everyone!
Mail carrier brought me bills, Impeach her!
Impeach the weatherman he was wrong today!
Impeach my mother in-law, just because!
What a bunch of obvious morons.......Barr’s investigation gets serious and now they want to impeach him? Isn’t that what they call Obstruction!?!?
I just feel (hope) he has integrity, unlike Mueller.
