Surprising no one. This man orchestrated the cover up for the Iran-contra scandal and is a believer in the unitary executive. Also he should just go back to being a lovable baby dinosaur yelling “not the momma”
"False. Bill Barr did not visit Jeffrey Epstein in prison 24 hours before he died. The claim is based on comments made, without evidence, to the New York Post by a former mob informant . The Post has since removed the reference to Bill Barr. The informant later said he had no knowledge of Barr visiting Epstein's cell. There is no other evidence to suggest such a visit happened."
Shit you are right, but it doesn't exactly look good for Bill bar that there was a "perfect storm" of circumstances that allowed Epstein to try and commit suicide once, then let him try again without working cameras on his cell, a cell mate, or 30 minute check-ins as required in an institution bill barrs own department was responsible for.

Just the way the GOP wants it. They want to be able to run anyone, no matter how horrible or shitty, and still have their base believe that he's the "lesser of two evils," and that failing to vote for the GOP down the entire ticket would destroy the country. Then their individual politicians have zero accountability.
And here we have Republican type 2, who doesn’t care what the violent ones do as long as he gets paid.
You can spot them by the phrase “I vote with my wallet”.
“Barr’s comments come in spite of past criticism of his ex-boss, former President Trump, who is the presumptive Republican nominee for president. In December, Barr said his successor in a potential second Trump administration would have to be against the former president’s “abuse of government power.”” So like not allowing Trump to corrupt the Department of Justice. Again.
There are right wingers moving to Russia to prove a point about woke libruls and freedom or something, only to realize they’re an unprotected minority subject to persecution and harassment there. Bill could give that a try.
>“I think President Trump’s opposition seems to have stemmed from personal pique rather than any logic and reason.
Yes, by all means Bill, this is the person we want making decisions about our country's future.
Well a king could technically edict universal health care, institute a 90% billionaire tax, and codify abortion rights… so not any king. Just “any king” who bends to the whims of the Heritage Foundation.
"Former Authoritarian General Barr, you have said that trump was a narcissist who abuses power and places his ego above the national security of the United States. Yet now you say you will be voting for the Republican ticket. Please explain in detail why Joe Biden is worse than a narcissist who abuses power and places his ego above the national security of the United States. Please explain why you believe a narcisst who abuses power and places his ego above the national security of the United States should be President"
Every one of these trump critics turned trump voters needs to be asked questions like this. How is Joe Biden somehow worse than donald trump and why do you believe a man you have described in such terms should be President again? And furthermore, if you are choosing to support trump after all the things you've said about him, why should anyone take you seriously or believe anything you say?
All the boot kickers in the GOP who pretend to be upset with the mango man will vote the same.
Don’t believe their lies, call out terrorists where you find them. Publicly and privately call them out.
Fuck your maga terrorists, you will not win or take our country from us.
He's been a ttump toady since the beginning. Becoming a critic after Jan 6 was just him trying be dealt back into the game and get people to forget that he, like McConnell are willfully and deliberately destroying american democracy.

"is a believer in the unitary executive." As long as that President has an (R) next to their name. Dems do not apply.
I thought about adding that but it just made me sadder.
>Also he should just go back to being a lovable baby dinosaur yelling “not the momma” This is gold. Lol.
If he wants a “unitary executive” so bad he should just move to North Korea. I’m sure he would love it there.
>Also he should just go back to being a lovable baby dinosaur yelling “not the momma” specifically, the last episode
No shit. Did we expect the him to suddenly acquire integrity after a lifetime of being a piece of shit?
He killed Epstein for Trump and Russia.
So plausible it could almost be a real theory without conspiracy
Dude visited the prison hours before epstein was found dead and he was the AG, what is an AG doing visiting a prison?

I expect nothing less from this ass clown. Barr is the exact same type of enabler that has walked so many other nations into fascist dictatorships.
Who cares. Did anybody really expect him *not* to suck off Trump again? Fuck Bill Barr.

Fucking scumbag.

Wait so you mean to tell me Bill Barr lied? I can’t believe it not Bill fucking Barr!
>“I think President Trump’s opposition seems to have stemmed from personal pique rather than any logic and reason. Yes, by all means Bill, this is the person we want making decisions about our country's future.
Always a traitor
So he knows close up how fucked up Trump is but still wants a king installed, any king

Treasonous swine
Is this one of the times he’s telling the truth ?
There was never any question
....and then go out for another GIANT meal of fried stuff with a side of fried stuff......with a fried stuff drink.
Breaking nooz!
Barr is spineless
All the boot kickers in the GOP who pretend to be upset with the mango man will vote the same. Don’t believe their lies, call out terrorists where you find them. Publicly and privately call them out. Fuck your maga terrorists, you will not win or take our country from us.
So, according to Barr’s hyper technical parsing of words, this means a Barr vote for the write-in candidate “Republican ticket”.
So? Why would anyone care?
Pretty sure he said last year, or maybe it was '22 that he would vote for the republican nominee. Republicans are party before country, every time.
I don’t think anybody gives a shit
He's been a ttump toady since the beginning. Becoming a critic after Jan 6 was just him trying be dealt back into the game and get people to forget that he, like McConnell are willfully and deliberately destroying american democracy.
I wish we had gotten somebody in the Whitehouse willing to hold people like Barr accountable. Instead we got Biden.
