So, will Billy the Bag Man Barr refuse to answer Judge Sullivan’s questions about political interference from the White House, or will he just perjure himself as usual?

The only issue in the Flynn case was said before on message boards but never in a media story. Therefore I will say it again.

The only issue in the Flynn case is, as Michael Flynn has admitted and is undeniably true, did Flynn commit a crime when he lied under oath to Congress and the FBI about his work to influence American policies on the part of foreign Governments or, as the Trump administration now contends, was the real crime the FBI catching Fly lying under oath to Congress and FBI agents.

When this Trump thing is over America’s going to need a Truth and Reconciliation process if we are to cleanse ourselves of his foul administration. Lots of norms been busted of late. We have a choice. Let that shit ride or once free of Trump and free to do what must be done condemn and forbid anything like this from happening again. Some folks need to go to jail as well.

I think you’re right. At some point Barr gets that his cover is gone on January 21. When that sinks in he goes straight and arrow.

He should not be off the hook. He’s a traitor, like Trump, McConnell, Stone, Barr . . . They are intent on destroying American democracy, and they’ve been well on their way.
