AG Barr’s Testimony Drives Former U.S. Attorney Chuck Rosenberg To Utter ‘I Miss Jeff Sessions’
More meaningless talk. Americans need to ACT if they want their republic back.
cant say what should happen , mcconnell and trump are an incredible breach to our national security , health and safety . they are monsters
watch the hearing
@Two Black Labs I’ve got my fingers crossed.
@Carole Linder Why do you want him handling and sniffing all the little girls, The piece of trash is a pervert, He is a piece pervert you have seen him, If he touched one of my daughters like that he would not be running for any office.
@Two Black Labs Like the crooked clintons
THIS IS WHY EVERYONE NEEDS TO VOTE AS IF THEIR LIVES DEPENDED ON IT…BECAUSE THEY DO!!!
@Michael K. Christy Sam I strongly believe in separation of church and state. with all due respect
watch the hearing
@Daniel Gonzalez May be. But only fools will destroy the country where they live.
@Michael K. Christy Sam here they call those people educated
L’Rynda T. Especially ours! Way higher percentage to die from COVID, cops, and this corrupt baby man president!
They should have asked Barr what sort of legal foreign assistance he was referring to. I would have LOVED to hear his answer.
He needs to be disbarred, it is that simple people, he’s no longer and has been at any time working for the American people .
@Plasma Run I’m not mad. Trump is president. And will be reelected in November. I’m happy. You’re the mad one. Poor pitiful you.
@Plasma Run and you still never told me what Barr lied about regarding Mueller?? I’m till waiting
Redneck Patriot you’re funny!
sullivan needs to be disbarred. Quit believing everything on MSM without doing any research yourself.
@Vicki Juliette I don’t believe everything from any news channel and I most certainly do my research. perhaps your the one who needs to the research instead of trying to spin like a top.
Can you believe he didn’t know what someone else put in their report? Could it be that the report was false?
He claims he didn’t know the tweet that was in the report that he read and summarised in two pages.
JA He definitely knew it was right!
When Biden wins he should hire back everyone trump fired that stood up to him.
Trump fired a lot of his own appointees also!
Biden cant win
Please Trump is better than Obama
Anita Kwateng that remains to be seen
Anita Kwateng Not by any criteria but you have a right to that misguided opinion
At least Sessions had the decency to recuse himself.
Recuse or rescue?
ObamaGate, he was exposed spying proven fact lol
paul bunyun DISPROVEN in fact, but go ahead and defecate your faux news everywhere, nobody’s listening
@Above All, United Shouting lies does not make the evidence go away. Stay tuned.
why would barr recuse himself? he wasn’t part of the trump campaign. you especially don’t recuse yourself if you realize the dept appears to have political motives. and the mueller investigation clearly proved that.
It’s a sad day when a frustrated wannabe slave master like Sessions looks like the better AG. Yet here we are
🎯💯👍
True and frightening !!!!
RECLAIMING MY TIME… you did not watch the hearing
What is the point of all this when they never give any consequences? He’s a liar, trump is a liar, and neither one of them serve us the people!!
You can thank the GOP senate for not doing their job, should’ve ousted Trump and all his cronies last December. Just think covid-19 would be under control!!!!!!!!!
Boar Stud Amen amen
@Boar Stud under control by who ? What conjecture ,what BS
We have our own traitor here in the UK.
His name is Boris Johnson.
Trumps brother, from a different mother!
Why should i? He asked! He is Bill Barr, the American Attorney General.
That blew me away! That should have disbarred him on the spot. What a smartass!
In name only! His actions show he’s a liar .
The Attorney General is absolutely corrupt, he knows that you know it, but he in in his mind says there’s nothing you can do about it.
Barr is an unethical zealot who believes in the ruling class. He is a clear and present danger and needs to be impeached.
He has apparently not outgrown his bullying youth.
I agree!
Dee Pattison, Was he?
He’s just a grey little man, with a grey, little soul, living his grey little life at the will of a toddler. His grey little personality has nothing to offer from his grey little mouth. I’m amazed he managed to stifle his grey little yawn.
He looks like someone who eats to try fill the gap left by his soul. Much like Trump.
An empty void where their soul should be…
NO SOUL !!!
“Why should I” as if the interests and protection of American citizens didn’t have matter. His hesitation on foreign interference
for a top legal eagle is mind numbingly incredulous.
I half expected him to say “MAKE me” and “I’m rubber, you’re glue”.
The reply for his impetuous comment?
“As you yourself CLAIMED, a _quid pro quo_ of this nature is a CRIME, Mr Barr. So, as the US Attorney General, you SHOULD prosecute crimes including “lying under oath” and “abuse of power” and “obstruction of justice” to help justice prevail and prevent corrupt behaviour from festering in the United States of America. That’s WHY you should. Or perhaps you’re not sure what your role is…?”
Americans struggle to feed their children, pay bills & are DYING…….yet the 4-year sh** show called TRUMP VIRUS continues.
He should ask, ‘Why would an Attorney General investigate”. Trump’s influence seems to infect people with conflation of their personal inclinations and the office which they temporarily hold. He’s answering as if he’s defending himself instead of accounting for his service *as Attorney General*, There’s a huge difference..
And the FAKE NEWS MSM WORKS FOR SATANIC DEMOCRATS.
WAKE UP STUPID FOOLS…SATAN HAS YOU BLINDED!!
When has this administration ever been concerned with the truth.
Or the constitution.
AG Droopy has Jeffery Epstein’s ledgers and client list. He is running the country!
This is a good example of someone who don’t care about his country and his people….
Lee Walter are you in the city or are you basing this off news stories from news outlets who fabricate stories to appease to their audience 🧐
Lee Walter the only people saying Portland is spiraling out of control is Trump and his lackies I haven’t heard any such stories from the actual news outlets in Portland or people that live there 😨
I didn’t see any officers or law enforcement of any kind interfering in the clip the Dems showed during AG Barr’s testimony of the peaceful protesters. Show me one clip of peaceful protesting and law enforcement is beating mother’s, women or anyone. This is discusting and admit it or not, you know it.
@SaigTheSamurai LOL
@SaigTheSamurai Not all protesters are causing problems. BUT there are many that have cause serious problems. Kinda like…..Those who died from Covid -19 amounts to less than 3% of those who contract the virus. BUT …..we still call it a deadly virus. The few matter!
-NYC….de Blasio worked a paint roller and redirected law enforcement resources as his city descended into violence and chaos. Shooting way up over last year. The solution….1 billion dollars removed from the police budget.
-Portland…. gun violence way up (more than 200%). Violent crimes like assault increased a swell. Mayor Ted Wheeler is a joke. Even Kevin Beacon trashed him. More than 23 million in looting and damages. Just a few bad eggs. LOL
-Chicago….Mayor Lori Lightfoot should step down. Violence is out of control there (based on Chicago’s history that is saying a lot)
-Seattle…..Let’s ignore the crime ridden CHOP zone from this discussion. However, Seattle wants us to believe that they have extremely peaceful protester walk in their city. BUT…Peaceful Black Lives Matter and Antifa protesters started attacking Seattle Police Officers recently. 12 officers were injured (some sent to the hospital) during an encounter.
Waiting for the total cost in damages.
– Philadelphia…..more than 13 officers were injured by peaceful protesters. Another city where gun violence is on the raise. Smoke thick in the air from the fires set. Looting out of control.
-Many more cites. Democrat held territories are magnets for this type of protesting. Their policies feed the violence. AND they want to defund the police ROFL
The Department of Justice has become a toilet smeared with a huge steaming Barr!
Not as bad as all these DEMONIC DEMOCRAT TERRORIST AND TRAITORS IN CONGRESS. THESE DEMONIC FOOLS NEED TO BE ARREST FOR TREASON.
DEMOCRATS ARE BURNING DOWN CITIES THEY ARE DESTROYING AMERICA. YOU VOTE DEMOCRAT..YOU VOTE FOR SATAN!!!
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP FORM THESE EVIL DEMONIC DEMONS IN CONGRESS. PLEASE GOD WIPE OUT THE ENEMIES OF AMERICA.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP!!!
“Why should I?” I think Barr is Benjamin Buttoning because that’s the kind of answer a 15 year old would give.
