Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), who chairs the Jan. 6 committee, on Sunday said that the panel has had conversations with former Attorney General Bill Barr.
Bet that was just chockful of outright lies, alternative facts, misremembering, and CYA bullshit.
That very loud THUMP! SHRIEK! SQUIRT! you hear is Fat Bill throwing Fat Don under the bus.
Little known fact: Coup plotter Jeffrey Clark earned a masterâs degree from the Biden School of Public Policy and Administration at the University of Delaware.
Only witness ever to redact his opening statement.
First off the boat gets the best deal, and Barr jumped ship 12/23.
January 6 Committee got them flipping like a flag on a pole.
So, you mean he didnât invoke the Fifth over 200 times? Yeah, thatâs the way of the bus for you.
IDK, maybe with Barr itâs a case of âIâd do anything for his Unitary Executive Theoryâ, but he wouldnât do insurrection?
Maybe, but I keep coming back to the fact that itâs BILL BARR.
Any sense of whether Jared has spoken with the committee yet?
There was a Sea Change in late March, 2019, when Barrâs influence was felt during the Mueller Investigation.
And things went South for DOJ ever since.
Was Barr actually Trumpâs personal lawyer?
If so, why?
If not, why not?
He wonât go along with one that has no chance.
People do have lines. Faint and small lines, but they are their lines. Also could it be that he wasnât involved in the plotting and the planning? Heâs miffed over the snub?
Iâd put money on it that he has found a way to spin it that makes FatAss and a few select henchmen (Evil Spawn too?) look the villains and everybody else in the GQP pure as the driven snow, completing the distancing he and McTurtle have planned.
FatAss is on the verge of becoming a liability and LowBarr is gonna help deliver the coup de grâce.
(emphasis mine)
âŚeverybody else except Graham, Hawley, Cruz, Johnson
He would, but they havenât coughed up the $500.
Thatâs what I think heâd do. Iâm hoping Cheney / Thompson arenât buying. But I also believe that theyâre realist: if they can let Barr skate in order get his info re/ the conspirators, Iâll live with it.
Eric Trumpâs cell phone? Is that the Playskool or the Fisher-Price one? Kimberly Guilfoyle was booted from Fox for having unseemly pics on her cell phone plus the suits there had to shell out $4 million to the plaintiffs for her engaging in sexual harassment. There is no bottom with these people.
Did Attorney General Bill Barr know about the drafted executive order since DOJ and himself was already proclaiming the election to be transparent, safe and secure or was it done via other channels via Flynn.
Interesting
