"The United States Attorney is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all; and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice shall be done.”

Yeah that ship sailed a couple of presidents ago.

Wasn’t this the situation that precipitated the current tweet fight between trump and Barr? That Barr won’t do anything for stone?

Skimming the article I don’t see what Barr did

My friends say ‘ohh Barr is so good.’ And ‘Trump has got to stop tweeting.’

I ask ‘what has Barr done?’ They say ‘oh. He says he’s gonna...’

I say Trump is never going to strip tweeting. And Barr is all talk.

Just like this article.

Attorney General Barr did nothing wrong by intervening; he did what he was obligated to do if the words from the United States Supreme Court in the landmark 1935 case of Berger v. United States are to have any real meaning:

“The United States Attorney is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all; and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice shall be done.”
*************************************************
Now if only Ultra-Obama-Judge Amy Berman Jackson had the interest that “justice shall be done”. But, of course, she doesn’t...just the opposite.

Prosecutor’s sentencing recommendations are discretionary and are not binding on the court. This is more leftist hysteria over nothing!! And the DOJ resignations were likely deep staters throwing in the towel.

95% of DOJ attorneys are Democrats, living in a city that consistently votes 90% Democrat

How could a Republican in a politically-based criminal case EVER receive a fair trial there?
