Democrats are failing the Barr exam. While Bill Barr grapples with the cerebral acrobatics of time-tested law, Democrats clown around in the political circus. Barr functions in the real world. Dems live in partisan bubbles that float inside fragile anti-Trump echo chambers.
The two worlds are clashing.
When the House Judiciary Committee voted to hold Barr in contempt of Congress and threatened to do the same to former White House Counsel Donald McGahn after his no-show on Tuesday, they screamed to the world that they’re not serious people.
Barr is dead serious. And he smells a rat.
“I’ve been trying to get answers to questions, and I’ve found a lot of the answers have been inadequate,” Barr told Fox’s Bill Hemmer. “I’ve also found that some of the explanations I’ve gotten don’t hang together.”
Comments like that are causing the rats to scatter. Obama’s wicked disciples – James, John, Peter, Andrew, James and others – are now betraying each other. Unhinged Democrats are digging to find “high crimes and misdemeanors” to impeach Trump with; they’re smearing, discrediting and defaming Barr and they’ve executed a secret “Memorandum of Understanding”to plot ways to keep the wagons circled around Trump.
William Pelham Barr – you’ve now entered the Twilight Zone.
At one point during Barr’s Senate hearing, he described the thunderclaps of criticism over his summary of the Mueller Report’s conclusions as “mind-bendingly bizarre.” Senate scavengers were still plucking at Barr’s summary after the full report had been released. It made no sense. It was like nitpicking over a movie trailer after the entire movie had been released, said one TV pundit.
But things got even weirder. Barr’s “mind-bendingly bizarre” comment came before Rep. Steve Cohen’s fried chicken spectacle; before Nancy Pelosi said he lied under oath; before Hillary Clinton accused him of paving a “road to tyranny”; before pundits described him as Trump’s trained seal; before Adam Schiff described declassifying documents related to the 2016 spying as “a cover-up”; and before a symphony of Chicken Littles chirped to the top of their lungs that the new attorney general should be put in jail.
Now Barr, crouched under the umbrella of the law, is calmly scribbling notes while frantic Democrats rain insults on him. Their recklessness offers a big clue to what sparked the collusion mess in the first place: contempt for Trump.
