I think you hit the nail on the head. They’re not trying to prove a conspiracy theory. They’re on a search and destroy mission to erase all the evidence.
Right. And the fact that Jeff Sessions had more scruples is a real tell.
Department of Justice rearranged spells “interjected fatso ump.”
Just sayin.
Barr ain’t running the russia story to ground.
He’s batting cleanup on the Epstein files, getting rid of the kompromat stashes (or moving them to new and different secured locations).
The russia angle is just a diversion so people won’t ask the right questions.
I have to assume that everyone in the various foreign intelligence services involved are ready to rat out Barr (anonymously)…
there is honor about spies. And Barr is violating that code of honor to a massive extent.
Aaand maybe to @dr_coyote’s point…
I have thought long and hard about Chump having his dick in Putin’s wringer all these years. What does someone who wants “out from under” try to do…when he’s been jerked around enough? Not much you can do, when you are a peon. But when you have the powers of the greatest country on earth at your command? Try to get “out from under”.
I think Chump has way too much on his plate. He can’t even fend off Nancy Pelosi on his home ground. Not much chance he will be able to pull a reversal on Putin. But my guess is Vlad still holds all the cards and Chump doesn’t like it and the minute he loses Vlad…it will all come out. Vlad will have nothing to lose if he lets the world know, with documents, how he had the US Prez on a leash.
So anyways…they may be looking for a way, still, to get Manafort his pardon or to discredit Mueller. BUT, there are always 4 more layers of unfathomed shit under whatever level you think Chump is at. Barr isn’t flying around looking for some facts to re-litigate the 3 yr old wet-fart that is the Mueller report. They got lots of irons in the fire and I will no doubt be flabbergasted when we learn about them. No matter how low I predicted Chump to go, I am always left flabbergasted.
Meet the Republican that Trump hired to make the FBI into a gestapo much like Putin’s KGB. But just like everything else conservatives try to do, he got caught because of his arrogance. Leaders of other countries won’t be bullied the way Republicans do their own. They will not support a new Third Reich.
Earth to the GOP. The rest of the world remembers WW II.
Sleuthy works for a very, a very big clown
And everybody here wants this clown to go down…
Place the attention on Barr
And keep it there. He is in an organization.
With real people in it.
I believe he’s operating under the Rumsfeld doctrine: "Go massive. Sweep it all up. Things related and not.”
Oh, I’m sure he’s working overtime. Epstein was the only mess that he was willing to come out of retirement for (the other daily evil is just a fringe benefit he does for kicks), so all of his moves should be evaluated with that in mind.
Acording to the daily beast…
The good side of that story is that Barr will be so distracted and absent that underlings will be able to take over the DOJ. Maybe among them there will be patriots who don’t want to become traitors.
When I think of his salary and all the perks that go with his position and he is serving only one person: Trump, I feel a little sick.
Well, he solved the Epstein problem without much trouble, he didn’t even got blamed.
Yep! I’ll bet that his next stop is Nambia.
He’s seeing who is desperate enough to make shit up for Trump.
Not necessarily. Those British tabloids are a dog with a meaty bone, nobody can get them to shut up.
And there’s the mystery of all his kompromat. Surely a guy in his situation would have made a dead man’s switch to ensure longevity. I imagine working to dismantle that has become his flying job now, can’t work that remotely, too many people listening.
Can I get a show of hands of all those who are surprised that Barr is simply another gop operative?
Trumpf’s Daddy Vlad was in France for Chirac’s funeral, maybe Barrstool and Vlad had covefe in a quiet place. Or Barrstool was dispensing goodies to keep mouths shut.
