Most of former President Trump’s rivals for the GOP nomination have taken a cautious path in responding to his indictment — but some veterans of his administration have taken a far more assertive stance.
Bill Barr, who served as Trump’s attorney general, said that Trump would be “toast” if “even half” of the behavior alleged in the indictment proved to be true.
Barr later called the defenses mounted by Trump and his allies “farcical” and said that the former president had “engaged in an outrageous act of obstruction and deception.”
John Bolton, who was national security advisor for Trump from 2018-2019, called the indictment “devastating” and said it should be the “end of Donald Trump’s political career.”
Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly told the Washington Post that Trump was “scared s**tless” by the circumstances in which he finds himself, adding “he’s never been held accountable before.”
Barr, Bolton and Kelly have all grown more alienated from Trump in recent years, but they are nonetheless cut from different cloth than “Never Trump” figures like former Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.).
This lends them some degree of credibility, at least in terms of providing a counterpoint to Team Trump’s claims that the indictment — on 37 counts, including conspiracy to obstruct justice — is a politically motivated attempt to hobble his chances of winning back the presidency.
Other significant figures in the party and in the broader conservative movement have also weighed in against Trump’s conduct in relation to the sensitive documents found at Mar-a-Lago.
In doing so, they have created a sharply different dynamic around this case than the indictment filed against Trump in April in New York.

You describe them accurately. Pure EVIL.
The usual cast of idiots.
I cannot find any other source saying that NARA dumped the documents in the White House parking lot. Not that I don’t trust Sundance but since this article is the only one I have read that makes this claim I looked for backup and found nothing.
If what the article is describing is true, then this is classic ‘entrapment’.
Am I correct that at some point in this lawfare operation that Biden knew the stuff was declassified and then announced that he was reclassifying it? If that’s even possible.
“I would be better off disconnecting completely from news. but...somehow i cant.”
Same boat. I think it’s like coffee, a kind of stimulant. But when it gets to the point of constant impending doom projection it becomes pathological. I figure it will be like a lot of other things I’ve quit, at some point it just drops off and I’m over it. Filling the mind with toxic, dead end politics makes no sense but going in it’s like coffee!
When the three boot lickers found out it doesn’t work with Trump they went rats hoping the democrats would take them.
Low life’s in action
This stuff reminds me of those CIA letters saying Hunter’s laptop was fake or that Russiagate was real.
It’s people who don’t have first-hand knowledge of what was in which boxes spouting off because they don’t like Trump and want to bury him.
That could have something to do with how he handled Epstein's death, but Barr was a Bush Republican, and that could also explain his other actions and attitudes.
that incoming cash was well distributed through out DC and the UniParty....they speak as one mind-particularly when it come to MAGA . Their payments/bribes are for its betrayal
Unmasking the traitors. 😏

That HAS to be WHY and HOW he hired Jeffrey Epstein to teach Math, even though he didn't graduate from college!!
NO WONDER BILL BARR IS DIRTY AND CORRUPT!
No Kidding!! Trump had NO IDEA how deep and wide the swamp is, and it has a TON of MILITARY LEADERS in it also!!
Bill barr is even DIRTIER than I thought!!
The BEST and The WORST that Trump does is make all these people SHOW THE WORLD HOW EVIL THEY ARE!!! And i USED to RESPECT a lot of them!! NO MORE!
All three are what are known as useful idiots for the deep state, Rinos and Democrats. All three worked against Trump while in his administration showing their true character as untrustworthy snakes.
These DC MORONS still don’t get it, they STILL think we have respect for what they say LOL, LOL, talk about clueless!!!

In marches Marxism in it's shiny new packaging.
I don’t think that any of us knew the depth and breadth of the corruption. As an outsider, he had to take recommendations from Republicans that have been fooling us all for years. If he gets back in, he won’t make that mistake again. That’s why they are so scared now.
Barr and his ilk are just as much Deep State as Vindman and Strzok. They all hang out with the same people, go to the same parties, etc.
I have interviewed lots of employees over the years that turned out to be garbage after I hired them. He brought in some really great ones, some average ones and some really bad ones. This time around, most of them have shown their colors. I can remember a time when most of FR would have thought that Bolton and Barr would have been safe. It's amazing what some people will do to sell a book or to be adored by the social elite at parties. I think that he learned a lot after the last go-round. He will not be listening to the likes of McConnell or Lindsey Graham for recommendations of who to hire this time. We are fortunate to have someone willing to sacrifice as much as Trump has for the good of our country instead of just trying to enrich himself like so many others. He is rough around the edges no doubt but he is a patriot and he is also a brawler. He is exactly the pit bull that this country desperately needs right now.
EXACTLY!
