Barr can't pass the buck on Epstein (an oldie that’s relevant today)
CNN ^ | Aug 13 2019 | Elite Honig

(CNN, Aug 13 2019): When Attorney General William Barr said he was "appalled" and "angry" after Jeffrey Epstein's apparent suicide at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan, you'd almost have thought Barr himself bore no responsibility. He spoke of "serious irregularities" and "demanded" an investigation -- as if he were some outside observer incapable of simply ordering an investigation himself.

Listening to him pour fire and brimstone on the rank-and-file who run the jail, you almost have to wonder: Has Barr taken a look at his org chart recently? Because the Metropolitan Correctional Center is part of the Bureau of Prisons, which is part of the Justice Department, which Barr runs.

Barr never fired Wray.

That’s all one needs to know.

Say where is that report about who killed him and the failures around his death. I think 15 months is enough time.

Where is the report on why Barr didnt order round the clock security with continuous video surveillance? This was prisoner no 1 in the federal system and Barr didn’t keep him alive. Trump should have fired Barr’s ass 15 minutes after Epstein’s death

Trumps instincts are better than 99 percent of politicians, but his personnel policies and decisions are 75 percent lousy

Lin Wood posted this a couple hours ago. I'm not sure what he's getting at. Seems an odd comment out of nowhere:

"Wow. All of the focus on clear election fraud sure has distracted country from Jeffrey Epstein case.

Man oh man. Epstein case could bring down Biden, Gates, Roberts, Clinton & others. Maybe even Obama.

Sure wish Epstein was alive.

Wishful thinking, I guess."

if they release anything this year I will be shocked
but this is typical in police/prison,govt cases.

how long can we possibly drag out the investigation till we loose interest and just call it a cold case ?

Fortunately in some places like in East Suburb Seattle Justice will not stop until the guilty is confined:

If he had done that he wouldn't have been able to carry out his duty, to whom was his duty, you say? Well, certainly not to Justice or the President, they don't pay well at all by DC standards, not well at all.

Donald Trump is entirely too nice. Barr should have been publicly reprimanded because he was lawless. He should have been immediately fired in an open press conference for dereliction of duty. He should have had his security clearance immediately revoked. And he should have been told that his personal effects from his office would be mailed to him. That’s how I would have treated traitor Barr. But then again, I am not as nice as Donald Trump.

Lt Quarales Harris Jr.( no relation to Kamala?), Seth Rich, Epstein,

The Democrat Assassins Guild is hard at work. I also expect that several Dominion Corp. Managers are about to disappear.

The DNC wet works. Soldiers of the Swamp.
