Pelosi Unloads On Barr For ‘Cover Up’: ‘He Gone Rogue’

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) didn’t mince her words while describing what she believes the whistleblower complaint unveils about the conduct of the Justice Department and Attorney General Bill Barr: It’s a “cover up of the cover up.”

This may help in trying to get one’s head around the timing of events.

With the mountain of BS shoveled to us each and everyday I find that it gets hard to keep track of who and when.

But please, hair-on-fire sufferers from PDS Pelosi-Derangement-Syndrome, tell us again about how she’s “no different than Trump.”

We should thank our lucky stars that the challenge to her speakership was so poorly formed.

Pelosi needs to stop feeling sorry for Republicans. She said that she felt sorry for Trump, too.

She and all the Democrats should call for Barr’s resignation often and repeatedly, and start an impeachment inquiry on him, too.

I hope the next Democratic President doesn’t whiff on prosecuting all of these Republican crooks as the last one did.

I think it’s their “shock and awe” strategy of carpetbombing us all with so much crap from all sides that we don’t know what to grab at. It’s been, sadly, too effective. But if we can keep focused on this one thing (thank you Nancy) instead of trying to juggle everything, we may bring this tsunami of horseshit to a trickle. Or perhaps even an end, with a whole bunch of folks wearing orange jumpsuits at the end.

Yet again, what the actual fuck?

Once again, Pelosi shows us that she sees the big picture better than any of us.

By holding back the dam on impeachment for all those months, and taking most of the flak for it, she has built up her credibility to the point that she can now be an “unimpeachable” advocate for impeachment.

It is sad for the country, Nancy. Who cares about them?

It was that part where Schiff did an exaggerated parody version of the gist of the conversation. Trump’s dumbest minions seized on it as some sort of actual deception. Commonsensical adults don’t do that but that’s not who we’re dealing with there.

You’ve made the same exact point in two nearly adjacent posts, dude. It’s a deliberately obtuse point, but never mind that. Give it a rest.

Isn’t the transcript of his phone call is a “version” that doesn’t exist ?

Barr hasn’t ‘gone rogue.’ It was clear from the get-go that he would use the DOJ to shield Trump.

You’ve made the same exact point in two nearly adjacent off-topic posts, “dude.” Try to stick to the topic.

BTW, I was commenting on two different Pelosi quotes in the article.

I would’ve like to have heard her call for Barr’s resignation, but other than that, “Give 'em hell Nancy!”

Cut this freaking POS off twitter and the world would be a better place.
