There are 100,000 folks that make up DOJ.

16 years of Clinton/Obama hack appointees.

2,000 Democrats sign a petition?

NOT impressed.

Barr is clearly over the target. Trump should triple the guard around Barr and Durham.

I call on Barr to disband the FBI and name those who support corruption in our government.

Betcha Lynch and Holder didn’t sign this. Doesn’t anybody from the opposition understand what a counter puncher does? Trump is the ultimate counter puncher.

ah I was one of them who compained. never hated but complained.

after SO MANY years no one wanted to hear “it will take time” anymore.

that was unfair to him because no one ever tried before he and Trump.

This was a big thing he did. I am glad

I would love to see arrests of domestic enemies.

Honest? if they went away for good and never bothered the US again i wouldn’t be AS upset.

but they’re still trying to take us down.

I think Trump thought a little bit that they would just go away so he showed a little mercy early on.

we both know better now

Lookie Here(notice the date)-

“More than 2000 former DOJ officials have called on Attorney General William Barr to resign for his interference in criminal cases.

Feb 17, 2020

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/1100-doj-officials-call-william-barr-resign/story?id=69030388

See that! That is from earlier this year.

I saw a claim that someone went to some google related sight to sign this. They gave totally bogus information and got added to the list.

It is all a scam. Fake news.

If you think about it- No such official or ex official in their right mind would ever sign this because they would never get a job again. It is interference in an investigation.

...calling the action "extraordinarily rare, if not unprecedented."

When US Attorney Durham releases the results of his investigation...and the names of those who've been indicted... the country will get a glimpse of the real meaning of "rare" and "unprecedented".

And who knows? We may even get an idea of exactly what the horse faced FBI lawyer meant when she said "POTUS wants to know everything we're doing" and why Susan Rice felt the need to remind herself,at 11:45AM (Eastern) on 1/20/17,that Osama Obama wanted everything done "by the book".

They close down our businesses and we watch our very substance dwindle and we can’t get 2000 people to show up at a #openNewYprk rally but the scumbags can get 2000 former DOJ and FBI to dance at the snapping of their fingers.

“Further down the Twitter feed, I saw that someone had added a link to the form where DOJ employees could add their names to the petition. So I tried to add mine to see how secure and legitimate the process was. I used MY name and Canadian address, and stated that I’d been with the DOJ for 28 years through 5 Presidents starting with GHWB, and ended my career as the Attorney General.

When I was finished, it thanked me for my submission and asked me if I wanted to fill out another form. If this is how they gathered the data for their story, those 2000 former employees may be as illegitimate as I am.”

Shawn Hannity says that the corruption in DoJ and FBI is limited to 1%, that the rank and file is A-OK.

This petition suggests that many of the rank and file are scoundrels. The culture of corruption runs up and down the DoJ and FBI.

That less than 1% of total FBI comprised of deep-state rogue agents are a very vocal minority.

Didn’t seen them sign any public criticism of the FBI relying on a paid Foreign source (Steele), a dossier which was a pack of lies and obvious piece of trash, warrants granted by “amended” 302s and targeted lies, the ruination of innocent American’s lives, the tolerance of public lying slanders contradicted when the same pack of scum had to testify under oath, the use of a faltering, senile old man to “front” a rabidly partisan investigation whose content he was unfamiliar with but who authorized 4am raids tipped off to CNN by FBI agents in stormtrooper gear. No, none of this bothered these “legal professionals enough to sign a critical letter or protest a peep.
