It depends on it there is ice cream involved. Throw in some cake and it could be a summit.
And bulleted! Donât forget the importance of bullets.
Listening to everyone slurring their words and mumbling, one would almost think that we have too many ancient white men in the Senate.
LeahyâŚlove the guy. He knows what being under oath means. Barr on releasing the Mueller report: I believe in doing whatâs consistent with the rules and the law.
Slippery devil. He wonât answer a direct question about doing this, which says a lot.
Barr is very big-headed, and I mean an arrogant POS. Thatâs my overall opinion. Heâs extremely overly confident with his own sense of authority even though he hasnât gotten the job yetâŚbut he knows heâs all but confirmed so thereâs that I suppose.
@imkmu3 Sycophants are like that.
Did I understand correctly that Barr will not necessarily recuse himself from the Mueller investigation himself even if the ethics review department concludes he should?
Spare me from lawyers and their âthought pieces.â
Chronic violent offenders more likely = men of color
On another note, has anyone asked Barr if he believes a president can pardon himself?
I want to hear that answer now.
Itâs a âthought piece,â it doesnât really mean anything. You know, what I said I thought, doesnât really mean what I think.
no problems here.
Pass the vodka please. No glass, the bottle will do fine thanks.
Lindsay Graham is getting more and more like an evil guy from an old Bette Davis movie based in the south. The way is asks questions with his eyes kindaâ half open and a weirdly flat deliveryâŚick. Watch out Bette
Thatâs what Barr said - said heâd consult with the ethics professionals but that the final decision as to whether to follow their findings or not was his and his alone.
Which I hear as a NO.
? Donât know. I mightâve missed it. I donât trust the guy. He deflects by saying he doesnât know shit without being shown a statute on whatever it seems he doesnât want to commit to. Thatâs a weaselly way of avoiding answering. Shouldnât he know most of the applicable statutes if heâs to become the top legal authority as AG? He should be made to look the statutes up and get back to the Senators with an firm answer then.
He should be forced to submit that in writing then. But as usual theyâre really trying to bum-rush this guy through with not much followup as they have with every other one of tRumpâs appointees.
âIâm at a point in life where I can do what I want without caring about the consequencesâ
Well that makes we feel great.
Wow, canât believe I missed that. Thatâs fucking huge. This guyâs arrogance alone could bring down democracy as we know itâŚand for what? In service to a fucking madman. We are so screwed.
Yeah, he lost me when he said that he doesnât understand the emoluments clause, hasnât read it, canât speak to it.
Hasnât read the emoluments clause? So heâs never read the Constitution from start to finish? Yeah, right.
Thatâs what he said. I would vote no.
AndâŚletâs face itâŚsince donnie was installedâŚanyone in D.C. has become EXTREMELY aware of the emoluments clause.
Me too. But we donât get a vote. Bummer.
Well if youâre going to drink it straight, a nice bourbon or scotch would go better than vodka. Who cares what time it is.
SoâŚthe repubs are using this hearing to pillory ComeyâŚagain.
