'The attorney general appears to be waging a media campaign on behalf of President Donald Trump.' Watch House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler's brief press conference ahead of Thursday's Mueller report release.

Congressional Democrats sharply criticized Attorney General William Barr Wednesday over his decision to hold a press conference to introduce his release of a redacted version special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia prior to making it public.

Nadler said Barr was not “letting the facts of the report speak for themselves,” and added that the Judiciary Committee was “not satisfied” with receiving a redacted version of the report. As news of Barr’s press conference broke, Democrats took to Twitter to criticize what they viewed as an effort to spin its findings and exonerate the president. I’m deeply troubled by reports that the WH is being briefed on the Mueller report AHEAD of its release. Now, DOJ is informing us we will not receive the report until around 11/12 tomorrow afternoon — AFTER Barr’s press conference. This is wrong. #ReleaseTheReport https://t.

Don’t you democrats have any sense of decency? You try to destroy opponents by using the scandalizing technique. For example the besmirching of Judge Kavanaugh which was inexcusable. Now your using the same ploy on the AG. Your not fooling anybody.

As the oversight committee looking for collusion and corruption why not investigate Hillary Clinton? I’ll bet you’ll be more successful in finding foul play. But you’re only interested in finding foul play by Republicans, aren’t you?

Lol this is how lost the dems are

Opinion | Mueller may be done, but Barr is just getting startedNo one should expect that Thursday's release of a redacted special counsel report will be the end of things. Mueller sucks. Trump should stop wasting time and pardon and hire MichaelAvenatti already and get this over with.

Nancy Pelosi unloads on Trump AG Barr: He's gone 'off the rails'House Speaker Nancy Pelosi makes plain that she doesn’t trust Trump’s Attorney General Bill Barr, but that she trusts Mueller. The New York Times’ Mara Gay tells Ari Melber, Barr appears to be “making the rules up as he goes along”, after Barr revealed he did not consult with Mueller before writing a letter claiming the Mueller report cleared Trump of obstruction. Bent Barr or low Barr.... maybe it's a low bent Barr I’m drunk and so is Pelosi every time she’s in front of a camera.

Stone cites Barr, Kavanaugh writings in last-ditch effort to dismiss Mueller indictmentThe longshot arguments, some of which have already been considered and rejected by judges in the same courthouse, suggest that Mueller's appointment was unconstitutional because he wasn't commissioned directly by President Donald Trump. Lot of words spent characterizing the legal strategies as last ditch hail marys in the headline... So the New Conservatives are trying to set new precedents, as one more small part of their big takeover.

Deputy AG Rosenstein rebuts Democrats’ suggestion that Barr is misleading with Mueller reportDeputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein defended the Justice Department’s handling of the special counsel’s still-secret report, saying Attorney General William Barr is “being as forthcoming as he can” about his process for redacting and releasing the roughly 400-page document. Rosenstein needs to go. He tried to remove president trump 25th amendment. Ohh well that settles it then. Oh. Ok. I can sure take your word for it. The government would definitely not lie to the people. Surely not.

Attorney General Barr Expects to Provide Mueller Report to Congress and Public on ThursdayAttorney General William Barr expects to provide the special counsel’s report to Congress and the public on Thursday Very likely Barr used word semantics to convey his (and Trump's) conclusion of Mueller's report. Does Congress expect to call Mueller to confirm that the parts redacted were for security reasons and not obstruction of justice? Not good enough. Congress has every right to see all unredacted materials. I’m sure the subpoenas will be flying the moment Congress gets the redacted report.
