  1. There is always an agenda when it comes to barr and trump. Barr has already sold his soul. He will always do what trump tells him. Barr is close to loosing his job. Trump will be exposed without barr to protect him. Trump told barr to say those things to take the heat off barr. Deflect, deflect, deflect

    1. Yes, Trump is a mastermind. His apparent idiotic comments are all part of a careful plan to dominate the world. [sarcasm] We are talking about a guy who is not competent to comb his own hair.

    1. @Linnaeus We don’t live in a democracy. We live in a constitutional republic. Do they not teach these things in school these days? And do you have any evidence to back up such a wildly salacious proclamation?

    2. Janes Conway
      Wtf are you blathering about?America is, supposedly, a democracy. That ‘s what you keep telling the world. It’s a truly screwed up democracy i’ll grant you that but then idiots like you are much of the reason for that.

    3. @Linnaeus “our Democracy” is the one where Hillary and the DNC cheated Bernie in 2016. Freedoms? It has the highest incarceration rate in the world. Wealth? For billionaires like Bloomberg, or famous conspiracy theorists like Glenn Beck or Rachel Maddow perhaps. Benefits? Sure, if you like an unaffordable health cate system with the worst life expectancy in the developed world… I sure enjoy this oligarchy… Oops, Democracy tremendously tho. 🙄

  2. Barr was trying to cover his tracks by stating the all to obvious cover-up for his incompetence and complicity as trump full time attorney.

  3. People we are in “DANGER ” 🚨🚨🚨♨♨♨
    Warn Bells really ring loud and clear !!!!!!
    Stop Barr cover-up Trump crime corruption
    and Trump pals !!!!! Doing it in plane sigh !!!!!
    Y

  4. Justice? How in the World did the POTUS and Congress get so much power? The people are spectators to their own governments’ incompetence. What a disgrace!

  5. Our one small hope is that whoever is handling the “non Trump affairs of the DOJ is still moderately honest. Otherwise, welcome to the Wild, Wild West – East – North – South.
    Expect the round ups for the death camps to follow.

  6. According to http://www.congress.gov on 12/ 10/19, Rep Bobby Rush presented H.Res.757 — Calling for the RESIGNATION and DISBARMENT of United States Attorney General William P. Barr and for other purposes!!!

    Why isn’t this being reported???

  7. Oooooh! He said “Poppycock”!!

    Watch out, Republicans! We have some profound language going on over here on the Democratic side! (smh)
