Lev Parnas: Bill Barr ‘Had To Have Known Everything’ | Deadline | MSNBC

  1. Trump: ” I don’t know Melania, other than I guess I had wedding pictures taken with her. But I have taken wedding pictures with many women.” 😄

    1. That’s Barr’s way of saying, ‘Lying, stealing and cheating is A-OK, because he who dies with the most toys wins.”

    2. @Tim Countis Too bad he doesn’t realize you can’t take ’em with you. That’s some Pharao-wishin’ there.

    3. He & this administration are christian radicals who’s only goal is turning this country into an authoritarian theocracy. Oh & cater to corporate so they can continue to pad their pockets while they eagerly await Armageddon.

  2. barr won’t recuse himself – he was hired to protect/hide trump’s corrupt activities. His “job application” for AG proved that

    1. Mike C  …………..  Barr’s ‘reputation’ was a WATERBOY and cover-up specialist for the Iran/Contra perps in the Reagan/Bush1 administrations; and he was largely effective at that . So, he’s doing exactly what is his forte . I had to laugh when he was nominated AG this time and the fawning media about his objectivity and respect . Always has been a scumbucket and toady .

  3. Trump implicated Barr and Giuliani in his perfect phone call with Zelenski. He named them both as his contacts.

  4. To say – as both Parnas and Sonderland have said – “Everyone was in the loop” is – to a certain extent – a misplaced euphemism. Frankly speaking, it would be more accurate to state that Barr is an integral part of the Chain of Command, headed by the individual of which it can be said: “The buck stops with him.”

  5. Russia’s State TV Calls Trump Their ‘Agent’ [TheDailyBeast]

    –Sometimes a picture doesn’t have to be worth a thousand words. Just a few will do. As Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov returned home from his visit with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office last week, Russian state media were gloating over the spectacle. TV channel Rossiya 1 aired a segment entitled “Puppet Master and ‘Agent’—How to Understand Lavrov’s Meeting With Trump.”

    –Vesti Nedeli, a Sunday news show on the same network, pointed out that it was Trump, personally, who asked Lavrov to pose standing near as Trump sat at his desk. It’s almost the literal image of a power behind the throne.

    –Russian Operative Said ‘We Made America Great’ After Trump’s Win [Bloomberg]

    –Kremlin-directed operatives opened champagne when Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016, according to a communication disclosed in a new Senate Intelligence Committee report outlining Russia’s sweeping social media efforts to help him win. “We uncorked a tiny bottle of champagne … took one gulp each and looked into each other’s eyes …. We uttered almost in unison: ‘We made America great,’” one operative at the St. Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency said in the message obtained by the Republican-led committee.

    1. @J N Rescue? Trump is a criminal and Trump supporters dumb or evil. As much as I hate Trump and his supporters I could care less what happens to him or his low life supporters. History has been written in stone that the conservatives have turned these United States into a corrupt nation. Bolton is just entertainment for us. Rescue? What a goof you are. Also as a bonus dumb christians have been exposed as the worst people with no morals, yeah the future is bright..

  6. No one who’s been paying attention ever thought Barr _wasn’t_ dirty.
    Barr has been complicit in t’Rump’s treason since day one.

  7. AG Barr needs to resign and maybe get an attorney of his own.
    Michael Cohen: “You have no one to blame but yourself; I tried to warn you!”

    1. He needs to, huh?
      Guess what, sweetie… only the President gets to decide if the Attorney General needs to resign.

    2. @Nameless Progressive Clone No, he doesn’t, if we the people wants him to resign then, that’s what he should do because remember he, the president and every other government official work for us!!!

    1. Absolutely! AG Barrf was appointed by v.Lad Pukin; AG Barrf works for v.Lad Pukin; AG Barrf is Russia’s puppet.

    1. Gwen30….the President has signed a CHINA DEAL on Thursday in the White House for the US People. This will help rebuild the US Economy. Meanwhile, Democrats do NOTHING.

    2. @Randy E There is a better than good chance that Shaken not stirred likes his / her country just fine .. that country being Russia of course.

  8. What I don’t understand is HOW LONG ARE WE ALL GOING TO BE PLAYED AS A FOOL? All of it is destroying America!!!

    1. Well, unfortunately it’s a nation in theory ruled by law. A demagogue president and crooked AG and a stacked Senate pretty much guarantees that they can’t be brought down easily. And that’s part of the reason we have the second amendment. Hopefully it won’t come to that but it’s an option if the American people come to believe that the government is being taken over by tyranny.

    2. Actually I think Trump and his supporters have exposed themselves as the horrible people some of us have always known them to be. From now on the conservatives will never be able to have any moral hi ground or patriotism because the conservatives are clearly traitors to actual American laws.

    1. @Pat McCann agreed, Barr is a seasoned political operative. Unlike Trump, he knows exactly what he’s doing.
