The article left out a third view held by many, including Lou Dobbs (and myself):
Barr is either deep state are is not capable (or unwilling) to fix the mess at DOJ.
A few facts (not in any particular order):
1)Barr started his career at the CIA,
2)was part of the Bush Administration,
3) close to Kelly,
4) has not begun to clean house at DOJ,
5) has not accomplished anything meaningful in prosecuting crimes committed by the left (all the way from Hillary, to sanctuary cities for illegal immigration, to out of control prosecutors, to voting irregularities, to antifa),
6) Epstein (yes, ultimately he was responsible for allowing his apparent assassination, either by design or incompetency),
7) organized attorneys to defend the FBI in the Ruby Ridge debacle,
8) has taken no action to stop the defacing of our national monuments,
9) Barr works for the President, and should be doing everything possible in his aid, not the other way around,
10) Bottom line, he is either incapable or unwilling to manage DOJ, and prosecute crimes committed by the left.
Some of us have lost patience, just like we did with Sessions.
add one more:
11) Federal prosecutors have declined to charge former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, closing an investigation into whether he lied to federal officials about his involvement in a news media disclosure, McCabes legal team said Friday.
The decision resolves a criminal investigation that spanned more than a year and began with a referral from the Justice Departments inspector general, which said McCabe repeatedly lied about having authorized a subordinate to share information with a newspaper reporter for a 2016 article about an FBI investigation into the Clinton Foundation.

Your whole summation is telling, but that one really sucks.
