Shallow comment of the day. He should lose those glasses.

Let's face it: no one wants to go down in history known as a 'Trump Appointee.' That's sort of like Spiro Agnew reminding Republicans that he was, in fact, the most honest member of the Nixon administration.😂

Ha ha qhen I first heard the name I thought they said Bill Marr😄

Good ! No one wants another corrupt person in the justice department ! Enough of Lynch and Comey !

Oh my god,, there’s no candidate since republicans led by realDonaldTrump won presidential elections pleased WPost of Murdoch & friends media mafia They have intelligence information about each one and they expose it once a person is nominated

Comm_Daily He will have to recuse himself on the US v. ATT and TimeWarner merger case

Not good.

Shows he’s got some independent thought.

Good, hope they shoot him down. We'll just keep Whittaker!

Who cares!

Thanks WashingtonPost, now that you reminded me of that “clash” with TheJusticeDept, I feel much better about Barr’s nomination to Attorney General.

Barr: 'I do not recall any references to either James Comey or Jimmy Hoffa.'. The 'do not recall' language is a dead give away. Barr wanted to have his cake and eat it too.

realDonaldTrump Barr actively pursued Donald's attention by saying the Magic Words: Investigate Clinton and Mueller's Wrong.' Barr wants back into the political process so he can run for President in 2020.

What has Donald Trump Done for You?

Trump derangement syndrome of democrats lifts Trump approval ratings

Sounds like the right man for the job stop crying liberals

Anyone who can co-opt the knowledge they’ve gained from government and then go fight for corporate interests, rather than the interests of the citizens is not a person I would like to allow back in the government.

In other words he ethically represented his client?

Good.. I dont want another overreaching DOJ 'Yes' man.

What else would we expect rhetorical

How many more times do we have to let white men lead things to see that they destroy it?

No surprise there... 😏

And?

God, I hate the revolving door.

Former H.W. Bush Attorney General William Barr is leading candidate to lead Justice DepartmentAccording to one report, officials expect Republicans and Democrats to be comfortable with Barr because of his experience. Perhaps they were looking for someone who could be less hated than the other members of the Trump cabinet. Hell no. Most will be happy if he enforces the law, that will mean the corruption of the Obama administration (including Hillary's e:mails) will be investigated.
