Now I know for certain that Barr is a bad, bad choice.
Trump should nominate Rosseanne Bar- Imagine the headlines for the next few years lol
It’s all about who the Senate will confirm. That leaves out Larry Klayman or any other DC outsider who would gladly do that job unbounded by political constraints.
Trump maybe, but the American will be very sorry Trump chose DC establishment insider William Barr. The Clinton and the Bush clans and their deep state cronies can all rest easy when Barr gets confirmed. Come on Trump, you put yourself up as a DC outsider. Yeah, you’ve done some good but in this case and a few others, you’re not very convincing, all things considered.
People don’t realize he has to nominate someone that will get senate approval...
Of course he will, Barr is a fellow Deep State stooge.
I do not see him holding any Swamper accountable.
So... what speaks to “swamp dweller?”
Criminal Justice
In his adopted home state of Virginia, Barr was appointed during 1994 by then-Governor George Allen to co-chair a commission to reform the criminal justice system and abolish parole in the state.
Immigration
As deputy attorney general, Barr successfully challenged a proposed rule by the Department of Health and Human Services to allow people with HIV/AIDS into the United States.[22] He also advocated the use of Guantanamo Bay to prevent Haitian refugees and HIV infected peoples from claiming asylum in the United States.[23]
Social issues
Barr has stated that he believed the constitution was not originally intended to create a right to abortion; that Roe v. Wade was thus wrongly decided; and that abortion should be a “legitimate issue for state legislators”.
The party of bush, the GOP— rinos and neverTrumpers that stabbed Trump in the back while the country was taking her last breaths.
When all this goes to sh!t, I want these aholes in the ‘republican’ party brought to justice.
It will all be up to Jeff Flake, just like the list of judges.
Greg Jarret warned Trump the Bush bot is pure
Deep state.
Who the Hell this Session part 2 .
Trump makes the Worst pick .
That Wray is a disaster and now another Enemy within .
Is Trump this clueless .?
Unreal . This guy will help impeach him .
FR has become such a pit of ignorant nattering nabobs of negativity towards practically anything Trump does (or doesn’t do), it’s a waste of time to read the comments anymore ... I guess all of these ignorant fools would have been much happier if Hillary had won in 2016 ... maybe they can support her in 2020 ...
He was great in the Kavanaugh hearings. And now saying he'd support Barr for the AG spot is signaling some good leadership on the Judicial Committee.
Smart pick by Trump. Especially the week that the democRATS and the MSM are praising GHWBush, Barr's boss.
Hillary has nothing to fear. Barr is a Deep Stater & friend of Mueller. He’ll probably end up helping Mueller’s gang even more.
It seems quite possible that a testosterone-laden alien has invaded Lindsey’s carcass.
Hope it lasts . . .
Terrible, insane decision.
In 1991, all eight Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to confirm William Barr as Attorney General.
Most of those Democrat Senators were on the same Judiciary Committee that destroyed Robert Bork in 1987!
Oh how I wish the sages on this site would run for POTUS and show PDJT how it’s done!
If I was Trump, I would go back to private life after this term and tell the nation to F*ck off!
Am I alive?
Am I the ONLY person to notice that he was AG during Ruby Ridge?
WHY is this not being mentioned by ANYBODY????
William Barr will hit the ground running... good choice - zero chance of controlling the guy.
