After watching Barr lie his way through the handling of the Muellar report,for this man to express confidence makes my stomach churn.

Investigate whatever you wish about 2016 but donāt forget the people of the FBI must investigate and stop Russian efforts in the 2020 election. What impact will loose talk about āspyingā and disgraceful talk about ātreasonā have on FBI agents and analysts?
You assume that we survive this and return to some semblance of Rule of Law. Iām not holding my breath. I am too grounded in history of human civilization. I want the good guys to win, but some days my native optimism is lacking.
I am absolutely confident that any information thatās inconsistent with the Stasi put-up job AG Renfield been ordered to put together will be too highly, super-secret to release.
āDNI Feels Need To Express Confidence In Barrās Secret-Keeping Skills.ā
I share DNIās confidence in āBarrās secret-keeping skillsā.
Iām confident Barr will try to keep ALL of Trumpās secrets.
Russian kompromat, Wikileaks conspiracy, money launderingā¦
More likely they are compiling lists for use in the āNight of Long Knives.ā They are planning to āPurgeā the Federal Government of all āDisloyalā employees and this will be used as āevidenceā against them.
Seig Heil.
At least theyāre completely incompetent at everything.
Exactly so. In bureaucratese, the very fact that Coats felt the need to write ā and publicize ā this statement is a code for āBarr, weāre watching you, and you had damn well better follow the rules on thisā.
In the BBCās old Yes Minister series, this was called the āGood Chapā principle: A good chap does not tell a good chap what a good chap ought to know.
By telling so, you are implying that the recipient of your advice is not acting like a Good Chap.
Hey now. It only took 2 Global Wars and the worst Depression in History to āget overā the Guilded Age of the 1880s, and they didnāt have Facebook, FOX News, and the Internet to exacerbate the dystopian slide into despotism.
Cheer up. You will be dead before itās all over anyway. /s
This country is fucked nine ways from Sunday
Next up. Trump grants Barr unlimited power to examine AND PUBLISH the Tax Returns of Private Citizens and the unlimited power to publish Grand Jury deliberations on any US citizen.
Some days I am glad to only have another 30 or 40 years on this planet. I am reading Frankopanās āSilk Roadsā right now. Humans are horrible creatures!
Exactly, so that it really is a veiled warning.
I know that Trump has lied to Barr because thatās all Trump knows how to do. Iām not at all sure that Barr yet knows just who he is really working for and I hope that he is still a tad naive about that because heās about to get his toenails melted. What makes anyone think that that intel is anything but hair-raisingly awful about Trump and his people?
I read Silk Roads and didnāt get the god humans are awful creatures from it at all. O wellā¦
Coats needs to resign and testify about Trump and his henchmen Barr.
There will be hearings on thisā¦and allow me to give my thanks to the hard workers who got the vote out in 2018.
Really,Dan? What gives you that confidence?
Dan Coates is not an idiot. Neither are the numerous intelligence heads. There have been some past reports that the intelligence agencies have been reticent about releasing information to Trump especially after Helsinki and the Oval Office gab-fest with those Ruskies where he told them classified info.
Despite the inherent OMG! reality that Barr has carte blanche, I seriously/hopefully think the intelligence community will continue their reticence with Trumpās hack AG nutcracker Barr, especially wrt Russian informants.
Right, Dan.

Hyperbole!!!
