Barr Now Claims He’s ‘Not Surprised’ By Pro-Trump Violence After Mocking ‘Liberals’ For Concerns

From the story:
Otero County, N.M., Commissioner Couy Griffin was arrested Sunday for illegally entering the Capitol on Jan. 6. Griffin, the head of a group called Cowboys for Trump, claims he got caught up with the crowd and didn’t actually enter the building, but the affidavit says video on his personal Facebook page showed him in restricted areas.

Money quote:
“… We could have a 2nd Amendment rally on those same steps that we had that rally yesterday. You know, and if we do, then it’s gonna be a sad day, because there’s gonna be blood running out of that building. But at the end of the day, you mark my word, we will plant our flag on the desk of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and Donald J. Trump if it boils down to it.”

Valuable words Cowboy. Prolly cost ya’ 10, maybe 20 years. Asshole.

He’s a lightweight. Lightweight on integrity. Lightweight on self reflection. Lightweight on knowledge. How nice for him to be such a successful lightweight. But our country can’t afford to have lightweights in positions of responsibility anymore.

Fuck Barr and his circular excuses. If Americans had doubts about the integrity of the elections it is because the dotard, his beloved boss, called our election process fraudulent even when he won in 2016. This is part of his attempted rehabilitation tour and Ms. Cabrera writes about it/exposes it like I wish mainstream media would do it. McConnell today blasted the dotard as being guilty of incitement to insurrection signaling that when the impeachment starts next Monday he will most likely be a yes vote on the dotards guilt and then on the vote to keep him from ever running for office again. McConnell knows what a cancer the asshole is on the GOP and he is trying to distance the party from him. Too late you odious old bastard. The dotardian virus has wormed it’s way into your party and is eating away at it like a cancer.

“When people lose faith…”? That’s an awfully passive voice to use to describe the situation.

How did they lose faith like that, Mr. Low? It couldn’t possibly have been the continuous stream of Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt, fed by outright lies and claims without evidence of rampant electoral fraud by the President of the United States, spread continuously for two full months (while being fed and supported by YOU, the RW media, and much of the elected GOP) that might have had, oh, I don’t a know, a tiny bit to do with that “loss of faith”?

You and others like you filled our airwaves with lies, damned lies, and more lies that led to a broad loss of faith in our elections and our government (but almost entirely on the Republican side. How does that happen we wonder?).

Who is responsible? Let’s talk about that… not this fraudulent milquetoast bullshit you call “loss of faith”…

A Pardon Party?

:notes: I went to a pardon party
To reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories
And hide our crimes again
When I got to the pardon party
They all knew my name
No one recognized me
I didn’t look the same

But it’s all right now
I learned my lesson well
You see ya can’t please everyone
So ya got to please yourself :notes:

when people lose confidence in the media, and also when they lose faith in the integrity of elections, you are going to have some people resort to violence,”

…which Republicans are in no way responsible for. Barr continued.
(Second highest Demon Sulpheramous Skinshanks nods and makes another notation in his book of of the damned)

It’s not Republican voters’ fault who took Republican lies seriously that’s to blame.
It’s Democratic voters’ fault for taking Republican politicians seriously. That’s how we got here.

Never mind I see that the asshole really went there. Full bore white supremacy on the way out the door.

“I’ll leave it to the people who are looking into the genesis of this to say whether incitement was involved,” Barr said.

“You know,” he added, “The people who used to work for me. By the way, if anyone asks you where I went after talking to you, just tell 'em I went up the street and took a right, and that’s the last time you saw me.”

You have captured the essence of the sanctimonious, hypocritical, deceitful, white nationalist, totally lacking in self-awareness, lightweight (figuratively), authoritarian POS far more accurately than that I have previously seen on this site. Lying Bill Barr is often credited (in error) with being intelligent,but someone who is intelligent does not debase themselves by acting in such an openly and conspicuously deceitful manner, continuously throughout his tenure in office. He is merely a thief with a coat suit and tie, and an eagerness to lie. Sycophantic fucking asshat. He makes John Mitchell seem lawful, in hindsight and relatively speaking. And John Mitchell was, unabashedly, a liar and a felon…

Very good. I think you meant to re @euglena4056 ‘s great post above my quoted one.

Always look for the passive voice from these worthless %#&@^*&# asshats. It is absolutely their tell. They know how to speak and write normally. And they surely know how to lie and obfuscate, spectacularly. And they are good at naming things, ironically and deceitfully. (It is the only irony that they can understand, and the only irony they are capable of using or understanding.) Add a large dose of racism, another of authoritarianism, and another of white nationalism—there, that sums them up.
