Where was this guy when Obama’s AG was meeting in secret with the Clinton


To use a Bidenism, “Oh, come on!” Everyone knows it was a chance meeting at the Phoenix airport where they talked about golf and grandkids.

Harley Rouda is the definitive idiot son. His father was a successful realtor in the Columbus OH area. Harley has an IQ of about 60 and somehow ended up in CA and won his seat thanks to the infamous ballot harvesting.

Far too dumb to have an original thought of his own, this is straight from Pelosi/DNC Central. Question everything and portray it as criminal.

Um, I think he was still a Republican then. LOL. I knew his father, Harley Rhonda Sr., and he would be shocked with his son’s liberal politics

I think it is within our purview because we want to know.

This is the take away quote. What incredible ignorance & arrogance, not to mention the stupidity of making that remark publicly. Desire to know does not convey right to know.

Sure investigate it because... they are political enemies? No reasonable suspicion of any crimes, let alone probable cause. But Barr works for Trump, and Murdoch owns Fox News... so, sic ‘em right?

The Republic is truly screwed if we let these ideologues rule the roost.

But it’s silly to suspect Murdoch is personally involved in those kinds of day to day decisions at a network that employs many thousands of people. I have no idea why they met, if it has anything to do with the Russia Hoax investigation then it was probably just a courtesy or to secure cooperation from the top - e.g. Barr asks Murdoch to instruct the network bosses to provide assistance with documents etc.

That’s assuming it has anything at all to do with current events. Maybe Barr is seeking a job. Or maybe it’s a different investigation. Or maybe they are old pals, both having been around politics a long time. Or maybe Murdoch is seeking an acquisition and wants DOJ approval from anti-trust, or maybe Murdoch is complaining about Comcast/ATT monopolistic practices in the news media... could be 1001 possible reasons to meet.

Democrat party is going to take away Barr’s freedom of speech, freedom of association, etc.? I don’t think so!

"What the hell is the attorney general of the United States doing meeting with the head of Fox?" axed Rouda.

None of your damned business.

Rep. Rouda should worry about who he meets with because his big fat mouth just opened it up to investigation.

Why do I think that any investigation of Barr’s meeting with FOX executives and firing of Shep smith is a media trap set up to force the media to cover something that normally would be ignored.

I do want to know exactly why he walked out of a multi million dollar contract. There’s so much more to this story. Shep has a younger boyfriend to support - he won’t like that daddy isn’t bringing home the bacon anymore. No pun intended.
