Attorney General Bill Barr reportedly asked law enforcement officials to push protesters out of Lafayette Square shortly before President Trump delivered an address at the White House amid protests nationwide in the wake of George Floyd’s death.
Sounds like someone falling on his sword, not like the truth.
Impeach Barr.
Naw, he was hiding behind the cops and MPs, clearly gave the order.
Sounds like it was directed by trump, and he went out to execute it.
History will not look kindly upon this abhorent human being.
I guess Ivanka didn’t like the coverage and someone has to take the blame… it’s never the Dear Leader’s fault.
Hopefully Biden’s AG will announce investigations into illegal orders given during this to attack peaceful protesters. All of these pieces of shit should rot in prison.
Every Napoleon nesds a Marshall Ney.
I’m struggling to understand what authority the AG has to order Federal police and military troops to do anything…
It’s a Trump thing, you wouldn’t understand…
No one would…
Who do you believe? Not Barr.
How are you supposed to address systemic racism in your police forces if your “top cop” doesn’t get it?
Show over substance, the essence of Trumpism.
If I started understanding Trump things, I think that would indicate some very bad things about my mental state.
Reich Minister of General Thuggery William Barr urged the jackbooted troops to show the citizens no mercy.
Maybe. But if so, did Trump order Barr to do it? Certainly not going to take the word of Barr, the White House or Department of Justi… um, Propaganda on that.
Well there’s the old George W Bush defense…“What do I care, I’ll be dead”.
Just throwing his weight around.
Barr said words to that effect just a few months ago.
I don’t know who asked whom what; but this was a staged-for-tv photo op. That’s Trump’s specialty, not Barr’s. I have no doubt that if he was asked to pass along the order to give it a veneer of faux legality, he would do it in a New York second, but this wasn’t his idea.
