That, and there is no point to Barr entertaining the notion of an investigation into Biden and Obama until lower level people are indicted, start talking, and the great unbrained in our society realize there is no way the two of them could not be involved.

Biden will pass away, literally.

If the only thing that happens to Obama is that he loses his reputation and has to spend his remaining days in some awful 3rd world sh*thole that does not have an extradition treaty for fear that an investigation of him will be opened, so be it.

Everyone will now blame Obama and Biden.

The AG is Bill Barr. Bob Barr is someone else.

So much for “where the evidence leads”! Lindsey Barr is obviously one of them. “Them” meaning a deep state puke. Go ahead, try to convince me otherwise!

That is pretty much what Barr said. People need to listen to him directly before they comment based on emotion, spin from whatever media outlet prints it, etc.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cA05goPVhTk

Go to the 35 minute mark.

He called it all a HOAX - in no uncertain terms.

He GUTTED the actions of the DOJ and the Special Counsel investigation.

He said there is an ongoing criminal investigation.

He pretty much said he is determined to break the cycle of a dual system of justice.

These were pretty strong comments. Will they satisfy those who had some fantasy that Obama and Biden would be charged with crimes? No.

Based on his very direct comments, it will be difficult to accuse him of being a partisan and that is important. Anything less would be the typical left vs right.

He pretty much said the whole thing was BS. History will be the judge of Obama/Biden and if you listen to his comments it is pretty clear he says what many of us have been screaming for years - there was a dual system of justice based on partisan goals.

I don’t see a lot of wiggle room for the media (already on thin ice with this farce) to spin his comments.

Make the enemy feel you are weak, when you have a strong hand. What is Barr going to say right now? Of course, he’ll play it down. That doesn’t mean things won’t change. Is Brennan going to sit there and take all the blame? Barr is telling the people that are in trouble - your superiors are safe - unless you know something.

At least Nixon was formally pardoned.

I actually don’t have a problem with this, as doing otherwise could set a precedent that would be followed by every incoming Democrat administration—investigate and indict their predecessors. I do, however, think that everybody else involved, no matter how far up or down the foodchain, needs to swing for this.

Pretty much. For 325 million people in the US (minus 2), ordering the droning a US citizen in some foreign land would and should be be murder.

For the president and VP, not so much. They couldn't defend the country. I think the Supreme Court would take that position. The remedy would be impeachment, and for Obama and Biden, that horse left the barn 3 1/2 year ago.

Their minions are another matter. "I was only following orders" has been out as a defense since 1945.

Barr’s words are meaningless. Democrats will be laughing for decades over this one.

This is as expected as it’s severely problematic so not a real surprise.

But the “Trusty the Plan” types will see many explody heads among them.

The real Mafia would be envious of the level of corruption and abuse of the system that goes on in DC.

He didn’t say no to Hillary. She paid for the dossier.

Just remember to take any and all public pronouncement with a large heaping of Salt 🧂 Of course Barr has to get out there and say we’re not going to prosecute Obama and we’re not gonna prosecute the current vice president presidential candidate for the Democrats Obama is a former president to terms and his beloved by almost all the Democrats which is about half of this country Let our wonderful president go out there and trash Obama with Twitter and everything else there’s nothing Obama can do about it because it’s being done by the President of the United States Can you imagine the media fire storm that would resolve if there was indictments of Obama? They would turn that all around into Trump being vindictive and it would be a disaster Just remember Obama got 50 60 million votes twice OK ? Comey Brennan clapper- know these guys never got a vote from anybody They have zero popularity and zero media support and so it would be very easy to enjoy these guys and press would not give a shit We all know zero the dork bomba was all behind all this stuff and again the president will continue to point this out for the next six months until the election
