Does Attorney General William Barr’s recent actions cement the idea that the AG is working for President Trump as a lawyer and spokesman, and not for the American people? Some have called the AG a threat to democracy in the ways that he could potentially interfere with the 2020 elections. Aired on 12/12/19.

The Partisanship Of Attorney General Bill Barr – Day That Was | MSNBC
Crooks of a feather should go to prison together, And be put in a metal cell and denied any bail ! 😳
patrella bell The Best President Ever 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 will not be ‘selected’ but democratic chosen again: he gave up everything (does not even earn money) and is a real patriot, halleluuuujah! And the Fed Reserve, the Rothchild Dynasty, NWO leftist arrogant pundit clans will be destroyed! And
evil

itself! 👹👹👹
@Crystal Giddens *RUSSIAN TROLL-BOT-ALERT=HIT MUTE WHENEVER THEY OR TRUMP’S WHITE NATIONALIST REPUBLICAN MAGA NAZI DICKRIDER’S POP-UP ON NOTIFICATIONS!!💯👿👿🆗🇺🇸✌😂😂😂*
@Kevin Hatcher PLEASE EVERYONE AND EVERYBODY WITH EVEN JUST, A LITTLE COMMON SENSE, KNOWS THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A NEW WALL, THEY JUST DID SOME REPAIRS ON THE OLD FENCES, THAT WE’RE ALL READY THERE, AND THAT IT HAS NOT MADE NO DIFFERENCE IN CRIME, BECAUSE MOST OF THE CRIMES ARE DOMESTIC ! 😱🙄👍🏻
@Crystal Giddens TRUMP WON THE FIRST ELECTION WITH HELP OF PUTIN, SO THEN HE WANTED TOO GET UKRAINE, TO HELP HIM WIN THE SECOND ELECTION, BUT HE GOT CAUGHT, NOW YALL WANT TOO MAKE IT EVERYONE ELSE’S FAULT ! 😱🤔🙏🏼👍🏻
@Downright Dutch wake up to the real world after the Republicans have their time Democrats will have theirs at the Democrats would have their time Republicans what happened to hear it’s the Rothschilds and the Federal Reserve is still the warmongers of the world read your history. Hillary knock Sanders out of the race. To make way for her 12th cousin Trump for Trump and Hillary was not chosen so Trump was Selected. President Obama, President Bush President, Bill Clinton’s are cousins to your royal family. Now Hillary family had to Legacy to the presidency of America the Financial CORPORATION underworld secret Society. Run in London by the 1%. Maybe you’ll Wake up when another Democrat President is Selected.
And americans love to emphasise how democratic they are, they cant even have a non corrupt election.
Eric W There is nothing democratic in electoral college, trump wasn’t voted in the office by people but he is still president. I don’t know of any country in the world that uses this sham system. Not to mention gerrymandering. How is this legal I simply cannot understand?!
Rob Layman but the sad reality is that most of Americans are stupid because of their failed education system. Im 100% that majority doesn’t even know who is the Vice President of America.
@Trumpocalypse
i understand you point its just a stupid one.
things like voter id is not suppression
@Trumpocalypse subterfuge is voter suppression…got it. Doublespeak is voter suppression. When dead people vote, my vote is suppressed. When illegal aliens vote, my vote is suppressed. Impeaching this president would be election suppression.
1:22 “…asserting a different truth.”
You mean… lying?
@Jeremy Backup
Trump 2020
“Truth is not truth” Rudy Ghouliani
Maybe Trump is just morally right, instead of factually correct. That’s all that matters, right leftards?
@American Nacirema “Maybe Trump is just morally right, instead of factually correct…”
Morally correct? LOL!
Maybe he’s neither. Just maybe? Occasionally, Trump may be factually correct, but only if it is was accidental or to his advantage. There have even been times when the facts would have been to Trump’s advantage, but he chose to lie, anyway.
It is nearly impossible, though, for Trump to ever be morally correct. Trump is a sociopath. He has no morals, except in rare cases where a decision of his will directly result in innocent people being killed AND there is no personal benefit for him.
When did rule of law become partisanship?
@JOHN Danenberg except that never happened and he has been far less dictatorial than our past presidemts
@Tyler Melick That’s because Republicans can only use hate to control their brainwashed followers. Facts and logic are not on their side.
@Mark Benson lol how does it feel to be a laughingstock of real americans?
@Tyler Melick Laughing all the way to the bank!!!! You should get a job LOSER and stop living of the government. TRUMP is great! TRUMP’S economy is great! TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP owns 2020!
@Jeremy Backup They are called Pro Chumper Republiscums
Left in panic mode
@Dalea Nolan We wouldn’t seem so scary if you weren’t intent on lying, cheating and political violence whenever you don’t get your way.
@American Nacirema that sounds Republican
TRUMP SHOULD BE IN PANIC MODE SINCE THEY’RE HAVING HIS IMPEACHMENT HEARING RIGHT NOW ON 📺 T.V., NOT JOE & HUNTER BIDEN OR ANYONE ELSE EITHER!!✌😂😂😂
Yeah, capitals really show how sane you are,,,,
@Jonathan Campbell Actually it sounds like the definition of terrorism. But I wouldn’t expect an troglodyte to know the difference. You probably think shooting up softball games or schools or churches because of a political ideology is justifiable. I bet your Antifa boyfriend hits you.
So he is saying that Peter strzok and Lisa Page had no political bias??? 😆
Hallking78 The inspector general can only question people in the FBI & can only go back so far. Steele was being paid by the FBI and orca volunteered to testify to IG. THE IG could not compel anyone at Fusion GPS, Perkins Coie or the DNC to testify. James Comey refused to renew his security clearance so he couldn’t be questioned on classified material. Barr & Durham are able to compel anyone to testify and they are. That’s why the #fakenews media is trying to dirty both of them up. Donald Trump told us – he caught them. He caught the swamp. He caught them all.
@omi god The bias is relevant because it lends motive to the crimes outlined by Horowitz. Falsification of evidence, fraud on the FISC, perjury, and malfeasance are all baked into this.
The impeachment is a joke. failing to obey congress isn’t impeachable, it’s a matter for the court.
Abuse of power must be tied to an actual crime, it’s not a crime in itself. There is no evidence to support bribery, quid pro quo, obstruction, or anything else that’s been thrown against the wall.
@First Last How does tossing wild hypotheses and random trivia support the Democrat claim that Trump committed a crime?
I can’t wait to vote #trump2020 and reap more #liberaltears
@jon doe nothing random about it. Cult 45 literally believes trump hasn’t committed any crimes, trump can’t be investigated, and any investigations should only be done by people that support trump otherwise it’s not “fair”. You really are blind, deaf and dumb. Trump is morraly ethically and intellectually bankrupt. Trumpu fraud case, trump foundation fraud, emoluments, obstruction, bribery. Amazed how cult 45 believe someone that’s been a conman his whole life is going to change once he’s potus. Unfit to serve.
@jon doe Failing to respond to a subpoena IS an obstructive act in and of itself, regardless of how the court might rule.
Ah, I can still remember the msnbc article pondering if Eric Holder aka Obama’s wingman, was working as personal lawyer and spokesman for Obama and not the American people. Or Loretta Lynch having tarmac meetings with people under investigation…..
Oh wait….
@Source Awry 🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂😂
@Stone Men
simpleton
both houses of Congress ratified the Affordable Care Act.
in fact republicans even created the term “ObamaCare” for the legislation.
now try telling America it’s the democrats fault the conservative supreme court has kept abortion legal for 40 years.
good luck with that lie, too.
@Daryl Leckt Hey dummy… Obama delayed parts of Obamacare requirements without proper legislation in Congress. If I’m such a simpleton why didn’t you address everything in my comment smart guy.
@LUIS VELEZ what a strange reaction to good advice. If we’re to make any progress, it might help to know the make and model of your dictionary. I suspect we have an English incompatibility issue.
I am Barracks wing man he is still my boy.
“You better let us abuse the FISA court to remove all future Republican candidates or else you’re a partisan” this is downright embarrassing for the MSM
@Ragnar Lothbrok sorry, that was trump’s buddy at the Enquirer reporting on bigfoot. Fake news for a fake president. He loves his simpletons.
First Last okay anchor baby.
Republicans love FISA when it benefits them. Bunch of hypocrites.
Didn’t Trump just say Abuse of Power isn’t a crime??? LMAO, such hypocrisy it hurts everyone’s stomach who has a brain!
sure.
think of all the times you accidently called the Kremlin and hired Carter Page to run your “Election Campaign Committee of Moscow”, like poor innocent trump did.
then the monsters at the DOJ had the nerve to get a FISA warrent to surveil the innocent Carter Page’s activities in the Kremlin.
if the FISA courts will surveil Carter Page, what will they do to you when you move to Russia, open a brokerage firm in the Kremlin, and a presidental candidate accidently calls you, and hires you to be the chairman of his “Election Campaign Committee of Moscow” ?
would the biased employees of the DOJ surveil you, too?
Remember when AG Eric Holder said he was Obamas “WING MAN”?
@Nicky Krystals Or when Border Agent Brian Terry was killed with one of the rifles lost in fast and furious.
@Trumpocalypse I could explain it. But you clearly don’t research abd will immediately plug your ears and start throwing a tantrum or deflect.
It’s all you rejects have at this point.
@Trumpocalypse How about Lerner IRS scandal too?
@Nicky Krystals I’m an independent and from where I stand two wrongs don’t make a right.
The fact that they didn’t investigate all candidates and only focused on Trump means that they spied on Trump.
Only spy i know of was working on Diane Feinstein’s staff…
Finding no “documents or testimony “ evidence is a true statement because crooks don’t tell you how corrupt or dishonest they are smh
So are you saying Barr is Trump’s wing man?
17 substantial “mistakes” all pushing a false narrative, based on a very questionable and unsubstantiated report, forward… ya, no bias here… move along quickly… nothing to see or question here… {wink, wink}
It’s Hilarious how washed up MSNBC has become……..reaching all time lows!
Makes me ROFL.
I would suggest everyone to view that whole interview of Bill Barr.
Yes he explains it very clearly. You can not deny the facts!
I don’t remember MSDNC doing a segment on the partisanship of Eric holder. Now that he’s a talking head on Twitter and left-wing media
This comment section need more whatabout-ism from trump cultists.
Yes, I guess it depends on how one defines, “Spying”.
