So we're taking it down," the Democratic governor said during a news conference in Richmond.to decry the death of George Floyd, police brutality and racism.

In case you don’t already know, he does what his boss tells him. Puppet on strings or strings on puppet...
CNN are supporters of domestic terrorism..!
Barr = Trump's lap dog.
This man is about as horrible as trumpy. His ass needs to go as well.
His picture looks like a man with his tail between his legs.
Our tax dollar is going to pay this mans salary, and he isnt even representing US - he represents trump and trump only.
barr can justify or de-justify anything by talking in legal circles.
Cowards they build the fense trump wants
So full of sh?t
Since when did a lawyer have the authority to direct police our armed forces to violate peaceful protest. Who's in charge in America?
BARR MUST RESIGN.. OPEN INVESTIGATION ON EPSTEIN DEATH..TRUMP AND BARR ARE INVOLVED
All he needs is a stick up his butt, then Trump could REALLY manipulate him like the PUPPET he IS. 👩🏾⚖️🤪
Rejected Santa defends tactics used to make boss happy
Is this his .. OMG mom is going to be angry at me look.. or is he constipated? This guy might as well be two face / Harvey Dent, cause his actions don’t fit this face.. they fit a far darker, evil, Orange Side!
So who's paying for that wall
What else would you expect?
The explanation from Barr has no relevance to what he ordered, just for a photo op for Trump. As a Christian are we not ALL called repentance? Jesus never used power and might. He used LOVE
🤬🤮
Yea right it was peaceful till he ordered an illegal show of force just for a photo opt. And he has not done anything about the racist murders, he's just as racist as trump.
Beer Belly Barr lies as well as his master. He has quickly lost his credibility...
I’m still a little confused. When has the Department of Justice, historically, been able to issues orders like that? Isn’t that out of their wheelhouse? Or am I wrong?
He is a crook like Trump
Is it legal to use the same tactics to push him back?
The saddest “yes man” in politics. realDonaldTrump
idiot puppy
His ass is getting kicked to the curb with Trump in November.
This guy is pathetic!
You want to build a bridge to the protesters? You’ve got the military out there, test them for Coronavirus.
Barr is so full of sh_t and the fact that it took him several days to cook this “no correlation” story line is sad. No in the White House ever admits they made a mistake. ownit.
~ he f**ked it up.
Of course he does. He’s Himler to Trumps Hitler. Dictators fall. And this guy thinks he has a bigger future in politics!!? Wow. realDonaldTrump
You mean the Violent Protesters, see how one word changes it from a lie to the truth?
No defense for this act of cowardice by Barr-trump
Pathetic Barr
Here Himmler has spoken.
Racist pig
Don't cover these criminals anymore until the day they are marched out of our White House with handcuffs on! Or.. All MEDIA should put mics up to their faces ask direct questions then make headlines out of it. BeTheChange
Eeyore
Hey step back breath and listen to this with your eyes closed!....
Barr is a kiss ass, just like the rest who stand behind Donald
I agree
This same man who defends these tactics is the same man who’s Agency violated my civil rights as a Muslim while I was employed as a federal employee over 5 years ago. Still no justice in the legal system to this day. Even though the Agency was found guilty of the charges.
More BS!
Bill Barr needs to be arrested for his blatant abuse of power. The Attorney General is not the personal bidder of the President, but this man grovels at the feet of the worst President in history.
Weak ass man
there is no justification..
Me too
Law and order.
No defense for gasing your own people
The present offer possibility, we have resource, knowledge, technology to make poverty archaic. And we can make racism and bigotry and ignorance archaic as well. It could be done on this continent through education. Max Lerner (1964).
He belongs in prison for crimes against the people of this country.
Of course he defends another Trump mistake. He is going to go down with the ship.
Barr would be the tank driver in this pic
Barr did nothing wrong....move on.
Step 1: they claim it’s a lie and fake news, despite the fact it was on video. Step 2: they justify it. Step 3: they blame someone else.
Nothing but a Trump puppet now. Just disgraceful
Barr belongs in jail.
Barr said it was a 'coincidence'. Using the same way of thinking, realDonaldTrump's presidency was a coincidence too. So was Barr's AG role.
Bar should be behind bars. The ass-licking idiot.
The White House is the people's house. There have been protests outfront for a century maybe more. It's authentic America to bring your greivences there. The current occupant doesn't understand America.
The world is watching
You violated Americans rights. Trump had Americans gassed and shot with rubber bullets just so he could take a picture. We will never forget!
Of course he does, have you ever known him to disagree with anything Trump says? This is not news, it's expected.
