In an earlier report, Barr said this:

“As for President Obama and Vice President Biden, whatever their level of involvement based on what I know, I don’t expect Durham’s work will lead to a criminal investigation of either man,” Barr said. “Our concern of potential criminality is focused on others.”

Could Barr be signaling people who worked for Obama and Biden they may get a break if they become cooperating witnesses?

Only takes one rat to bring the rest down.

The key is “based on what I know.” That is always subject to change as new information comes in. I heard Sebastian Gorka today assert that he still has confidence in Barr. He knows more about Barr than most anybody here so I think I’ll wait and see. The truth will be evident soon enough about Barr.

Based on what Barr said, I believe there is no “smoking gun” on Obama or Biden but on James Comey or whoever conducted the interview of Michael Flynn.

I’m surprised he’s surprised. One look at Barr should be enough to alert anyone that he’s a useless human lump of swamp.

If he eventually does decide to go after Obama he should be the last one on the list. Accumulate all the dirt from the others and squeeze them first. Then, if a case can be made on Obama go after him.

After a well crafted lead up, Trump should ... for the ‘’good of the country’’ ... pardon Obama.

For those able, think about it.

I imagine that Barr understands that once a former U.S. president is prosecuted, EVERY former president will be prosecuted by the other party the next chance it gets.

That may happen anyhow. If a democrat is elected this November, the dems will be mightily tempted to trump up a criminal case against Trump. They have spent the last four years wallowing in hate. They have accused Trump of innumerable crimes. Their base would demand prosecution. And once that Rubicon is crossed, it will never end. If you want 2020 to be the last presidential election in American history, that's one way to do it.

“’I think it’s just a continuation of a double standard. ...” the president continued.”

So he’s saying Barr is working for the other side, is how I take it.

Barr didn’t get the memo. We’ll see if he changes his tune now.

“As long as I am attorney general, the criminal justice system will not be used for partisan political ends,” Barr said.

Like the Flynn case?

Notice how they ignored what Barr said today.... his strongest words yet about the Russian collusion delusion -

“”What happened to the President in the 2016 election and the throughout the first two years of his administration was abhorent, it was a grave injustice, and it was unprecedented in our history... the law enforcement and intel apparatus of this country was involved in advancing a FALSE and utterly baseless Russian collusion narrative against the President. The proper investigative and prosecutive standards of the DOJ were abused in order to reach a particular result. We saw two different standards of justice emerge - one for Trump and one for everyone else. We cannot allow this to happen.” (para)

Did they print these words in this article and others? No.

In other big news from capital hill the democrats are demanding the grand jury transcripts from the Mueller investigation to continue their investigation into Russia, Russia, Russia.

Don’t you think the paraphrased quote I put above is “news-worthy” and applicable to the continued witchhunt by the democrats?

It is unbelievable. Barr did not say what we wanted to hear today about Obama/Biden, but what he did say is very newsworthy.

Don’t take my word for it or trust the media - it starts around the 26 minute mark of the press conference today. It will only take you a few minutes to listen to it.

Why are these remarks not being covered?

Bush couldn’t fathom a need to investigate the Clinton’s.

How many people realize everything negative we face today,
was as a direct result of that?

Bill and Hillary literally destroyed this nation’s morals.

“As long as I am attorney general, the criminal justice system will not be used for partisan political ends,” Barr said.

Which I guess means that prosecuting anyone who’s a Democrat would be off limited, because, after all, that would be “partisan.”

What a worthless loser AG. Even worse than the PREVIOUS worthless loser AG.
