I'm not negative on Barr in general, but his actions indicate he has no intention of punishing for the past abuses in DOJ, FBI, CIA, and State Department during the coup attempt.

The media is being used again to influence the November election. To bring chaos and economic calamity to help defeat President Trump and his supporters.

We must be aware and warn all who will listen. It is our duty as citizens to prevent those attacks again.

He needs extra powers to sit on his ass and do nothing? This is like an 0-10 coach asking to be GM too.

This fat piece of crap is as bad as Sessions.

What has Barr done to prosecute Epstein’s accomplices?

And wasn’t he fouling to “get to the bottom” of how Epstein was allowed to die in federal custody?

More spin from the Deep State Bagpiper to divert attention from the ChiCom bioterrorist blitzkrieg on the United States and the rest of the world.

" I'm not negative on Barr in general, but his actions indicate he has no intention of punishing for the past abuses in DOJ, FBI, CIA, and State Department during the coup attempt. "

This would be instructive that Bill Barr does have his priorities, and a sense of urgency, when it's convenient.

Honestly my moment of truth with him was when his DOJ sent Epstein to the same Federal jail in NYC that you or I would be sent to if we were in Federal trouble in that part of the world, with obviously ZERO additional diligence done to keep him safe, and then after Epstein was killed, Barr be like "Golly darn it, I'm really mad now!!"

Democrats are gleefully spreading corona-madness ---they're that desperate for power.

So loathsome and evil, they would destroy hard working people, their jobs, our economy, to accomplish their arrogant goals.

Plus there's the unquestioning Bernie Bro youths who have been brainwashed in public schools by moronic progressive teachers,
that the Constitution is outdated nonsense, completely useless, written by a bunch of Christian white men.

Their mantra is: "The government is going to give me free stuff so I am down with whatever controls government deems necessary."

What? You don’t believe, my party right or left? Do you not claim that the Trump Administration can do no wrong? Where is the blank check?/facetious and supercilious.

The flip side is to hold people personally responsible.
When a person knows he has a STD/HIV and acts to infect another person, that has been labeled :not a crime: in most of the US.

If a person knowingly infects a person with the coronavirus, what is the current situationh?

Then the next step: If an individual puts another person at risk. Examples. A healthy person knowingly and willfully has sex with a person who has STD/HIV and then willfully has sex with a third person knowingly putting that third person at risk... what is that?

Same with coronavirus.

But we have lost personal responsibility.

So we have Big Bro responsibility to protect us.

Any rational attempt to minimize Big Bro must expand personal responsibility ... or have anarchy.

Yes, that is how the ComDems think and operate.

Barr will prosecute the Deep State actors when I see those flying cars that were promised back when I was a kid. And that’s been awhile.

Agree on personal responsiblity.

But in this case, some who have the virus exhibit no symptoms. And it has a 2-14 day incubation period.

So, the carrier may not even know he has it.

Then there is the issue of other virus’s. They may have a flu virus, but not the Corona virus.

The idea that this is a weaponized virus that escaped from a ChiCom lab is frightening. But I think the reality of bad statistics on cases, recovered and deaths attributed to Novel Corona virus is hiding the reality.

The reality is the people who are dying of this are largely over 70, many over 80 and almost all have underling prior illnesses.

I could easily be wrong, however, I think this is due to courts being closed during the lock down. Rather than releasing violet offenders, they will be held without arraignment until the courts reopen.

The possibilities for abuse should be obvious, especially in a dem administration.

As with all things Trump related, we never get the full story until the lies have clouded the issue.

Let’s all remember who Barr’s boss is. He should not be able to take stuff to Congress that Trump doesn’t approve.

I’m looking at this from the opposite side — mainly because I’ve been thinking about the ramifications of this coronavirus fiasco on law enforcement.

If an accused criminal is awaiting trial and the courthouse is shut down under the orders of a governor or president, then what happens? He can’t be detained indefinitely. Is the prosecutor forced to drop the charges?
