AG Barr: FBI Investigation A Historic Travesty

AG BARR: FBI INVESTIGATION A HISTORIC TRAVESTY


11 Apr 2020 ~~ Scott Johnson
I have been saying for quite a while that the government operation run against the Trump campaign and the Trump presidency is the greatest scandal by far in American political history. Based on the progress of the investigation he has commissioned, Attorney General Barr has arrived at the same conclusion.
That is how I read his remarks in the interview with Laura Ingraham earlier this week. RCP’s Ian Schwartz has posted video and transcript at RealClearPolitics under the headline “Barr: Russian Collusion Probe Into Trump “One Of The Greatest Travesties In American History.” I have posted the video below. This must be a preview of coming attractions.
Quotable quote: “My own view is that the evidence shows that we’re not dealing with just mistakes or sloppiness. There is something far more troubling here, and we’re going to get to the bottom of it. And if people broke the law, and we can establish that with the evidence, they will be prosecuted…



Comment:
Time, action and accountability will tell if Barr truly believes what he says. Words mean absolutely nothing when it comes to politics and politicians. Durham has been touted to do his job honestly, without bias. Let's hope that is the case...
I can't stop remembering the non-scandals of Obama's "Fast n' Furious" sales of guns to Mexican drug lords and sending an airplane load of 400 million in cash to his Ayatollahs for a total of $1.7 Billion. Sadly, it's the NYT and WP that decide what's a scandal and what is to be ignored.
I question, would this be front page news on every Mainline News outlet every day on and on if this happened to Obama or even Hillary. But, since they are among the suspects ........
I fear the end results will be... a report saying "Mistakes were made, but nobody made them."


Barr is a trump sycophant. He has no credibility.

it does not matter what you believe woman ! the evidence will [unlike the dems bull frame job] will be irrefutable !

We first need to see the SPECIFIC evidence, man! It doesn't matter what you believe, either, man! Barr has no credibility. He, himself, handed it over by his actions. He is entirely responsbile.

Yup. He misrepresented the Mueller report, Mueller had to correct him. Barr’s credibility as non partisan is non existent.

No, he didn’t.


From your link:

The Special Counsel emphasized that nothing in the Attorney General’s March 24 letter was inaccurate or misleading,” Kupec said. “But, he expressed frustration over the lack of context and the resulting media coverage regarding the Special Counsel’s obstruction analysis.”

Try reading past the headline next time.


Wrong again dude, and a selective quote fail. Those are the words of Kupec, DoJ (aka Barr’s) spokesman. Not Mueller’s words. It is what Kupec is claiming Was said.

There is more....Barr is a partisan tool.



Weak.


Bring the exact quote from Mueller saying Barr “misrepresented” the report. Not spin by one of your handlers at a lefty website.

You're overlooking something. Meuller was Deep State all the way up to his chicken liver. Sad to say that about a once-great FBI agent, but I'm not buying the dementia excuse. Mueller knew exactly what was going on and how to play the public. It's been hard for Attorney General Barr to uncover these horrid facts from his investigation that people he held in great esteem were part of the conspiracy to destroy Trump and the Constitution of the United States that he was sworn to protect. It's a dark time in our nation's history to see so many of its sons go wrong all on the account of the most selfish woman in the world, Hillary Rodham "I forget" Clinton, disgraced first lady.

I expect indictments then. Biggest scandal in history?
Otherwise it's all HOT FUCKING AIR

It’s a huge scandal alright, but no one will pay a price. Our government is much to corrupt to ever police itself.

in normal times i fear you may be right ... but Trump is not a normal DC good ole boy member . Trump will not let this go .. somebodies ass is going to justifiably pay !


Trump won't let this go? That's weird I thought that your rightwingers are trying to claim that Barr IS NOT Trump's croney.

Good grief? Do you actually believe in this "deep state" nonsense" How ignorant are you? Moreover, you seem to equate the vermin in the Oval Office with the Constitution of the United States. He has gone out of his way to violate his oath. Hillary Clinton has been a private citizen for three years plus, and has had nothing to do with the vermin of the present administration. She is not "disgraced," and never has been. Go deal with your own whore in the Oval Office. Deal with the sleazy scum known as trump and pigpence.

I think I would want to see actual evidence of it, as such I trust the IG’s report, IG’s are supposed to be non partisan career people. If you are asking whether there was merit to the Mueller investigation, then I would say yes. There was Russian interference and too many interactions between Trump, his family, and the peop,e around him to ignore. If you are talking about what the IG reported on FISA abuse, that goes far beyond Trump, and needs to be addressed.

Time, action and accountability will tell if Barr truly believes what he says. Words mean absolutely nothing when it comes to politics and politicians. Durham has been touted to do his job honestly, without bias. Let's hope that is the case...
I can't stop remembering the non-scandals of Obama's "Fast n' Furious" sales of guns to Mexican drug lords and sending an airplane load of 400 million in cash to his Ayatollahs for a total of $1.7 Billion. Sadly, it's the NYT and WP that decide what's a scandal and what is to be ignored.
I question, would this be front page news on every Mainline News outlet every day on and on if this happened to Obama or even Hillary. But, since they are among the suspects ........
I fear the end results will be... a report saying "Mistakes were made, but nobody made them."


Barr is a trump sycophant. He has no credibility.

it does not matter what you believe woman ! the evidence will [unlike the dems bull frame job] will be irrefutable !

We first need to see the SPECIFIC evidence, man! It doesn't matter what you believe, either, man! Barr has no credibility. He, himself, handed it over by his actions. He is entirely responsbile.

Yup. He misrepresented the Mueller report, Mueller had to correct him. Barr’s credibility as non partisan is non existent.

it does seem like anyone who challenges our side has no credibility.

if ANYONE said the FBI acted improperly to trump, does that remove their credibility? do you not think the FBI did act improperly?


I think I would want to see actual evidence of it, as such I trust the IG’s report, IG’s are supposed to be non partisan career people. If you are asking whether there was merit to the Mueller investigation, then I would say yes. There was Russian interference and too many interactions between Trump, his family, and the peop,e around him to ignore. If you are talking about what the IG reported on FISA abuse, that goes far beyond Trump, and needs to be addressed.


Forgot to answer your first question. Just saying someone acted improperly does not remove credibility. Also, if someone in an agency acted improperly in one thing, that doesn’t mean the agency did in everything. I think the IG looked into many aspects, found a mix of good and flawed, but no evidence that there was partisan bias.
 
AG BARR: FBI INVESTIGATION A HISTORIC TRAVESTY


11 Apr 2020 ~~ Scott Johnson
I have been saying for quite a while that the government operation run against the Trump campaign and the Trump presidency is the greatest scandal by far in American political history. Based on the progress of the investigation he has commissioned, Attorney General Barr has arrived at the same conclusion.
That is how I read his remarks in the interview with Laura Ingraham earlier this week. RCP’s Ian Schwartz has posted video and transcript at RealClearPolitics under the headline “Barr: Russian Collusion Probe Into Trump “One Of The Greatest Travesties In American History.” I have posted the video below. This must be a preview of coming attractions.
Quotable quote: “My own view is that the evidence shows that we’re not dealing with just mistakes or sloppiness. There is something far more troubling here, and we’re going to get to the bottom of it. And if people broke the law, and we can establish that with the evidence, they will be prosecuted…

then if the russian interference happened and that alone warranted the FBI's actions to investigate trump, why the lies to FISA? all their comments of "insurance policies" and trump hate goes unchecked and forgiven?

would you allow someone to do that to obama? 100% straight up the same way.

i would not. it's bullshit for us to look away on these actions for what would appear to be no other reason that we don't like the guy they are doing it to.

and if trump & co were acting up, why setup papadopalous?

again, if your reason to investigate is valid, all these games are simply not necessary and bring their own objectivity into question.

so - as a point of reference, how much are you willing to forgive of this acting improperly and from who? i just want to know when enough is enough so we can agree on a point of measurement.

On FISA...they looked at many FISA requests, not just the ones dealing with Trump, and found significant problems.

And “all their comments” relates to a two people.

You also have to factor Trump’s own lack of credibility, his lying about meetings etc. And we never got sworn testimony from him. That complocates the picture.

”would you allow someone to do that to obama? 100% straight up the same way.”

I kind of think they did that to Hilary (Comey).

My end feeling is that there needs to be some clean up at tbe FBI FISA program but I belive the IG when he said there was no evidence of partisan bias, just an overall abuse of the law.

but why believe comey when he says something you already agree with and barr is not objective when he says something you don't like?

i think we *all* all into that habit and then fall further back into defend our position mode. you are saying we have an abuse of the law.

so we agree there.

now - what do we do about it? hillary abused the law but didn't mean to. comey said that too. she broke the law but didn't mean to. i mean, if we're quoting comey let's bring that nugget into play again.

now the FBI broke the law - do we again say they didn't mean to? one or 2 people should be fired? and if you're not doing partisan bias WHY are you abusing said law?

if not partisan WHY are they doing exactly what they were found of doing - abusing law. i would say it's because they don't like the guy or want him out due to politics. that would be the VERY definition OF partisan bias.

however - i'm open to other reasons to do it it.

we agree they broke/abused the law. you say not for partisan bias so i'll ask w/o leading the answer -

why else would they do it?

I am really not sure. I suppose I would put it this way.

Abuse of power. I feel pretty strongly about, but needs to be supported by more than allegation And circumstantial claims. Abuse of power such as a president using the FBI to spy on, harrass, intimidate etc personal political rivals would be a redline. I don’t mean if there is a larger Criminal investigation that they get swept into tangentialy but if they themselves are targeted.

Another red line would be spying on US citizens with out sufficient cause (which the FISA program was SUPPOSED to be protecting us from.

"THE FACTS: Trump may use extraordinary rhetoric to undermine trust in the press, but Obama arguably went farther — using extraordinary actions to block the flow of information to the public.

The Obama administration used the 1917 Espionage Act with unprecedented vigor, prosecuting more people under that law for leaking sensitive information to the public than all previous administrations combined. Obama’s Justice Department dug into confidential communications between news organizations and their sources as part of that effort.

In 2013 the Obama administration obtained the records of 20 Associated Press office phone lines and reporters’ home and cell phones, seizing them without notice, as part of an investigation into the disclosure of information about a foiled al-Qaida terrorist plot.

AP was not the target of the investigation. But it called the seizure a “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into its news-gathering activities, betraying information about its operations “that the government has no conceivable right to know.”

was obamas documented spying on the press and stopping the flow of information an... "abuse of power"?

looks like a huge "redline" to me. unless everyone is lying about obama.
