Might remain secret—and here is why he was offered the position.

OHN!

Unacceptable.

The people need to know the truth

William Barr looks like the man for the job.

That report belongs to the American people, SenToddYoung SenatorBraun if this is his stance, you must vote no.

That report is our property... without redactions or editing!

That speaks volumes about his motives.

Who will be the Daniel Ellsberg of the 21st century?

Staying secret is completely unacceptable. Every tax paying American citizen should demand the report is made public. Besides, if Trump is innocent, wouldn’t the public report prove his innocence? Why hide any information?

As an American citizen, I have a right to know whether or not Russia interfered in our 2016 election and how they did it as well as if they are continuing to interfere in our election process particularly if it involves the President or any of his family members.

There's no such thing as a trustworthy Trump nominee. All important findings should be included in indictments filed and unsealed before the Mueller investigation concludes. Preferably ASAP. indictTrump&Pence puppetraitor

Don't trust him

I really need Wizarding powers, so I could Imperio, Crucio, and Avada Kedavra these traitors.

What a crock of s**t this is. Barr must promise to release the complete, unaltered, unredacted report or he must recuse. Otherwise he can GTFO

We’ll take to the streets if you bury it.

Bollicks. I want to know what is in that report, all of it, including the margin notes!! Secrecy is the realm of the guilty.....commit to publication of withdraw nomination.

Truly juxtaposed.

We deserve the truth. Sorry guy!

Arghh. We the people demand transparency.

Not good!

Thanks for coming now go home. Next choice please!

New Trump-Russia subplot: Mueller and Barr are ‘good friends’New Trump-Russia subplot: Robert Mueller and William Barr are ‘good friends.' Why it isn’t more troubling to president Trump, whom Barr said is aware of the relationship, remains a mystery. Oh we certainly hope that Bob Mueller isn't going to be 'reined in' in order to protect a certain traitor! Nope, he’s as evasive as anyone I’ve ever seen. He’s there for one reason only-do trump’s bidding Cross our fingers and hope for the best. Without the Senate majority that’s all that can be done.

William Barr: Democrats force delay in attorney general vote over concerns about oversight of Russia probeThe Senate Judiciary Committee postponed a vote Tuesday for one week on William Barr, President Donald Trump's nominee for attorney general Democrats = obstructionists Dems love their man Rosenstein who is the only one they don’t demand that he recuse himself. Quite fascinating to watch our law enforcers weaponize themselves and be used against political opponents. This is more dangerous than anything Russia could do to our elections. Since when did 'Russian collusion' become 'Russian probe'? Why is Mueller focusing only on Team Trump while ignoring factual campaign violations by Team Clinton?
