'That's poppycock,' neal_katyal says of AG Barr's defense. 'This is unprecedented, it's incredibly disheartening to me and everyone who works at the Justice Dept... There's not a single person who's not enormously worried about what's going on right now.'

Former Acting U.S. Solicitor General Neal Katyal tells Ali Velshi that it is "disheartening" for the Justice Department that Attorney General Bill Barr is accused of using his power to help President Trump in criminal cases involving the president's allies and foes.

neal_katyal It does look and sound suspicious, though.

neal_katyal They pussyfoot too. Poppycock and pussyfooting. Where is the line, is there no line any longer?

neal_katyal I want Bill Barr’s head on a platter. everyonewasintheloop

neal_katyal They should be worried! Every America should be outraged. Hitler dismantled the Justice System of 1930's Germany. Once again, we see Trump borrowing from Hitler's playbook. Historically, NOTHING good comes from Nationalism. And that still holds true, today!

neal_katyal Please start another baseless impeachment before the election. Americans really want more impeachments :)

neal_katyal Can you teach good behavior in your children and operate a orderly household, if the father or mother lies about everything and doesn't follow any rules? Than how can we have an orderly and law-abiding country?

neal_katyal DOJ mass walkout.

neal_katyal bullshit

neal_katyal I for one do not, I repeat do not believe anything that comes out of anybody's mouth in this Administration!!! 😒 nobody,, zero nada, zilch. theyalllie GOPCoverup

neal_katyal C’mon neal_katyal you can find more precise WORDS of CONDEMNATION for AGBarr.. like.. Corrupt DamnLiar BS MobLawyer.. PLEASE Do Not Soften the UglyTruth about TrumpGangsters..too dangerous! 🤨 AliVelshi

neal_katyal Awwww. That will be fixed in November.

neal_katyal Iowa. Democrats voter fraud. Yet you are not outraged NBC

neal_katyal

neal_katyal Were you worried when EricHolder said he was Obama's wing man? No you were not, hypocrite liberal hack.

neal_katyal NOW I remember where I have seen them before!

neal_katyal Hey neal_katyal legally speaking, when does it go from a miscarriage of justice to an abortion? barr

neal_katyal America has been more than worried for three years.

I agree it’s time to panic. Only republicans do stuff illegal & wrong. Democrats are perfect & do everything with the highest level of morality. We should listen to msnbc & never question the people on it because they’re always right. The world should just bow down to msnbc

neal_katyal As well you all should be worried

neal_katyal

neal_katyal If your president intefers with investigations and court cases, you just might live in a banana Republic

neal_katyal Of course it is! He's a 'Political Appointee' who disqualified himself by auditioning in a letter that openly 'pre-exhonorated' Conald Trump of any and All criminality, liability, etc..., so that he would get the position!

neal_katyal

neal_katyal She should have impeach him first when made a joke about arrest him he showed his hand that he was going to be corrupt take them DAMN law license and impeach his ass cause every body is not aponite in there post and and come on with the coConstitutional crisis

neal_katyal Worried stretches further than to those who work at the Justice Dept. Can a unsophisticated person like Trump implode our institutions of government, with Barr’s help? Why can’t this damage be communicated to Trump supporters? A real mystery here!

neal_katyal

neal_katyal 🤔

neal_katyal William Barr is the most extraordinary lickspittle in American history.

neal_katyal Lizard crook.

Barr says Trump's tweets about DOJ cases make it 'impossible to do my job'Attorney General William Barr on Thursday criticized President Donald Trump for tweeting about Justice Department cases in an extraordinary defense of rank-and-file prosecutors in an interview with ABC News. I'll believe it when he resigns. Otherwise, I have to believe this is an attempt to save some sort of independent face. Sad attempt to stop the mass exodus in response to their boss clearly being Trumps puppy dog. If the justice dept is independent , doing its job based on law and not politics, no, its not impossible.

Barr: Trump Tweets Making It “Impossible” for Me to Corrupt the DOJ on His BehalfThe attorney general wishes Trump would be a little more subtle about using the Justice Department to punish his friends and spare his enemies. Vanity Fair should really be focused on finding an investor to keep the rag going . It may be out of business before the Trump is out of office. VF is finished in its current form . Trump personal Attorney complaining for doing the Impeached 45 dirty work! Guessing this was all praranged to make it appear that Barr and the justice system is working independently and not in Trump’s back pocket.

Butler on Barr pushing Trump's agenda inside DOJ: This is how democracy diesWATCH: 'It's easy to have outrage fatigue, it's only been a week and every day there's something new. It's clearly payback time for Trump. ... This is how the rule of law is eroded, this is how democracy dies.' — LawProfButler LawProfButler This is the last phase of democracy. Eroded by the Republicans. Introducing African type of politics in the USA. Shame LawProfButler LawProfButler So IF your political opponent does something ILLEGAL you CAN NOT have them held LEGALLY responsible because their a political opponent? That make no sense at all. No matter the side the punishments should be the same but their not. But YOU will not report that fairly either.

Attorney General Bill Barr says Trump's tweets 'make it impossible for me to do my job'Attorney General William Barr said President Donald Trump’s tweets and public comments about the Justice Department and ongoing cases make his job “impossible.” So, resign.

Attorney General Barr: Trump Tweets Make It ‘Impossible for Me to Do My Job’Barr said that 'constant background commentary' from the president 'undercuts' him, although his reported intervention on the Stone sentencing conveniently lines up with the president's opinion Tweets from Trump are like hunters shooting game from a train. Trump ought to hold daily press conferences. It's not like the press & people wouldn't be for this. But, Trump likes doing things behind fortified positions, shirking battle (5 deferments, lest one forget). Trump’s tweets make it impossible for Barr to go his job in the following way: By Trump saying all the quiet parts out loud, Barr finds it challenging to systematically dismantle our democracy unnoticed. So everyone, please, pipe down and let Mr. Barr pervert justice in peace and quiet.
