WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General William Barr says law enforcement officers were already moving to push back protesters from a park in front of the White House when he arrived there Monday evening, and he says he did not give a command to disperse the crowd, though he supported the decision.
Barr is very worried. CYA time.
Someone needs to go back to the video to see who was doing the pushing.
And as for Trumpy he won’t be told no. If the perimeter needed to be pushed back, and there was a curfew order already in place the way to do it with the least conflict was to wait until an hour after curfew. But that would mess with Trumpy’s desire to hold up a bible, and of course daylight.
And what’s that saying: “If all you have is a hammer, then everything looks like a nail”. And of course the only tools in Trumpy’s toolbox are to show dominance in all settings.
So who did?
Yep, because I don’t understand how he fits into the chain of command. If the AG is worried about Trump’s safety, or as he is AG to order more mayhem during protests?
Once again, failure is an orphan. They’re just such incredible losers. Wannabe tough guys and then pointing fingers at each other like nasty little children.
Barr didn’t give the order - he relayed the order from 45*.

Reporter: Is that your child?
Trump: It’s a child.

Not entirely OT but as far as I know there’s already at least one lawsuit under way as a result of this fiasco.
Sure. And Hitler never ordered Jews to be gassed in concentration camps.
Psst. There are these long distance communication devices called mobile phones. Wonderful piece of equipment.

You don’t even need to be there and you can tell someone else to do something.
I think that’s likely the way it went alright.
Sorry Bubba Barr. You can try to hide behind the president, but we can still see your…culpability…peeking out.
His slip is showing.
At the trials:
Trump: “No, the attack was Barr’s idea. A lot of people say they talk to me.”
That’s one very fat rat sneaking off the sinking ship.
Nothing but the truth and the facts from Trump Inc.
Bill Barr did.
He’s a liar from the pits of Hell, so his demurral carries zero weight.
Always. That fat fuck has excuses for everything.
Trump will cheerfully throw them all under the proverbial bus rather than admit responsibility for anything.
