“Only one case. Well, maybe two or three. But, you know, Trump does’t pay attention anyway so it’s all good.”
Daughter and I are on our way from Seattle to Vancouver WA. I’ve been eavesdropping now and again. Barr’s performance would make a sleazy Tucson “Accident Lawyer” blush.
For GOP senators Trump is their useful idiot. We can understand their wanting to protect him.
But Barr? What does it buy him but employment? Are there other Barr types waiting in the wings for their hour on the stage? Surely he’s knowingly aiding and abetting a nascent American Mussolini.
Via cnn.com:
“The attorney general said Trump may not have believed he was asking White
House Counsel Don McGahn to say something false. Mueller’s report
directly disputes that”.
…
Ignorance of the law is not a defense the last time I checked. And in my most humble opinion this is lying under oath…assuming Graham bothered to administer Barr the oath to tell the truth.
There are also several other instances in his testimony that are lies, Of course no one will actually have the intestinal fortitude to actually do something about this state of affairs.
He’s already perjured himself under oath and he’s hasn’t even been on the job more than a a few months. That’s a record that far outdistances John Mitchell.
