POLITICO Playbook: Bill Barr is not going to have a good day

Three competitors—Coke, Dr Pepper and Pepsi—are working together to reduce sugar consumed from beverages. That's a big deal.is rolling out new, more aggressive messaging today that makes the point that Trump “is the first to issue a blanket policy of refusing to respond to Congressional inquiries on any and every issue, defying Congress’ constitutional authority and moving the nation into unchartered territory,” per her office.The president is meeting with members of Congress at 2:15 p.m.

by Josh Gerstein: “Democratic lawmakers scored another victory Tuesday in their lawsuit accusing President Donald Trump of violating the Constitution by doing business with foreign governments.rejected the Justice Department’s argument that the term ‘emolument’ in the Constitution should be read narrowly to apply to payments that amounted to bribes for official presidential actions.”Rep.

He kicked their ass

MalcolmNance And he shouldn’t,he knows Dam well Trump is guilty as sin!

This was an understatement.

He lied. I'm sorry, pardon me, he 'misled' America.

Kicked his lying ass to the curve

Bill Barr is not going to have a good rest of his life.

Bill Barr is smarter than everyone in the Senate combined.

He won't get a rough ride from the complicit republicans. They will make false statements and ask nothing questions.

I am glad that the Senate had questioning today. I hope the House rips this dump kiss ass a new one. This hearing is enough to make you vommit.

Lock him up 🤥👍

MalcolmNance He is a Liar.. Impeach him too

Good, he’s a lying SOB

MalcolmNance Thoughts and prayers

And it still won’t matter

So far it hasn't gone too bad.

Glad to here the nation's problems have been solved so all the millionaires in Congress and media can continue this nonsense distracting from the fact nothing is being done at 180,000.00 per Congress member.

I think Barr can handle himself just fine!

MalcolmNance Bill Barr clearly does not give a shit. He's no Dr. Faustus, or even Judas. Barr is just another amoral, hypocritical, corrupt Republican who has sold his soul to Trump and betrayed America.

I bet you he tears up these Democrats and he's going to drop bombs spying on the Trump campaign..

Yep but No laws broke and No COLLUSION just HouseDemocrats Delusions.. MAGA

No he’s not. democrats are cowards and Barr simply won’t answer anything. Impeachment now

Thank you LindseyGrahamSC FINALLY letting AMERICA LEARN THE TRUTH about what really happened under this so called 'INVESTIGATION' and the previous ADMINISTRATION. JUSTICENOW

And?

MalcolmNance

He should leave the hearings in chains. ImpeachBarr

MalcolmNance A tougher ride would be impeachment hearings...

MalcolmNance He's too arrogant to be offended. Impeach the AG Barr

Today needs to end with PerpWalks ImpeachBarrAndtRump BarrLied MuellerLetter ImpeachHisAssAlready

Dear Politico, If THEY give Barr a rough time...i feel it is THEY who will suffer most.

Barr needs to resign. He lied to Congress when he was directly asked if Mueller agreed with his summary, this was days after receiving Mueller’s letter expressing concerns. He took an oath to the Constitution, not to Donald Trump. He is America's attorney, not Trump's stooge.

I’m here for it. GiveEmHell ImpeachBarr ImpeachComradeTrump

My prediction is Barr will school everyone in the room. He’s going to have a great day!

He should be impeached.

MalcolmNance Wish I could be there. All I would need is a straw and a decent amount of spit...

BarrLied Barr lied to us. He lied to our Congress. Will Barr lie to us again today and, again, lie to us tomorrow? No trust in the Attorney General. Why is America promoting lies? Does no one in America want to raise their kids on honesty and integrity?

Of course. The Dems need to destroy him because they’ve got nothing left.

Since he's been giving all of us a rough ride for several months, seems fair.

Why, truth never hurts

I don’t trust Lying Barr! If it doesn’t come from Mr. Mueller’s mouth, it’s not credible. I refuse to believe a word from Pinocchio🤥 Barr. I trust Mr. Mueller! Let Mueller testify.

BOMBSHELL 💣!! GTFOH.

Good he should. Perhaps he’ll resign after

Thoughts and Prayers.

Dear We all know Trump will not keep his promise on an infrastructure deal.

GOOD

MalcolmNance He'll be ok Lyndsey will be there to protect Him. They need to change the DOJ Handshake not to indict a sitting Pres. That way Mueller would have done it out right. Barr & Cry baby wouldn't have had a chance to much it up!!

He deserves the roughest ride of all. He lied to Congress and to us.

Only rough?... But the AG lied under Oath....

Sad

Tell those evil snaky dems to go to the devil!

Per the infrastructure deal: You can bet nearly all Republicans will be against it. Their master plan is to let infrastructure fall in disrepair and then sell it to their rich owners for fun and above all else profit.

Lol. The dems are in for a rough ride, not Barr. Barr is driving. QAnon MAGA WWG1WGA KAG2020

gumboqueen3030 As he should!!

Good. I hope it hurts him

He will be fine

What's interesting about this article is that the infrastructure bill could easily be funded IF the TaxReformBill was rescinded! They BOTH cost the same amount: $2trillion!

Impeach Barr

Somehow I don’t think Badass Barr is too worried 😂😂

MalcolmNance This is only partly true. It will only be a ROUGH RIDE when Dems question him & if some of the Dems are Joe Manchin types, even then it won’t be that rough. “SOME Dems are even saying he should resign?” Only SOME? See, that’s why we SUCK; no backbone. Every DEM should demand it!

Barr isn’t the least bit intimidated by the Senate Democrat clowns.

MalcolmNance No he won’t. It’s the senate judiciary, which is republican run. They won’t bite the hand that keeps feeding them, because they have crooked shit in their closets.

MalcolmNance He won’t have a fun day for sure, but he’s as skilled at dodging questions & wasting time as Kellyanne Conway—the master Oogway of slipperiness. Pretty sure the Democrats & half the audience will be the ones left frustrated.

MalcolmNance Anything Trump touches dies. Honor, reputation, ethics...all are somehow destroyed by association with this unfortunate president.

MalcolmNance

MalcolmNance Barr LIED to WE THE PEOPLE

MalcolmNance Sad part is nothing will be done about this!

Nah. It's nothing to the arrogant, clever old man. He'll just play his dismissive, bored self. Barr is only afraid of Trump. But why? Trump has completely destroyed any shred left of Barr's reputation. That Trump disease seems to infect everyone in his reach.

Do we refer to the man, or the required action, with DisBarr?

I believe this is a very wrong assessment. Barr will eat these guys alive and they know it. That’s why they wanted their legal counsel to do the questioning. They don’t have the tools in their own shed to handle Barr. This will be EPIC!!!

Republicans will circle their wagons and protect him and reiterate what a great guy he is and a true patriot for his years of service. Barr will decline answering any questions from the Dems. Barr has been swimming in the DC swamp for decades, he knows how to keep afloat.

Let the GOP circle jerk commence.

Moving into the mouth of dragon!

MalcolmNance I hope so!

What coverup? He released the report. People can read it for themselves. This was the DOJ interpretation. You people are insane.

Womp womp I can’t wait

MalcolmNance It’s amazing to me how many Republicans are will to crap all over their reputations to save a reality star grifter.

Pound him the way Gowdy pounded Hillary. Let’s see what he’s made of. I’ve got plenty of time.

The senate gop will protect poor little Barr just like they protect poor baby trump - they protect their felons no matter the crime Politicians behaving badly.....perhaps traitorously, perhaps criminally

Exposed COVER UPS are hard to SPLAIN!

If Mueller wants to bitch about the Barr et al. letter, tell the SOB to talk with the Country-screwer who hired him and served as his boss for two years... that would be Rob Rosenstein, who helped draft the letter... which was also approved by the DOJ Office of Legal Counsel!

MalcolmNance I hope it goes as well as the Red Wedding

MalcolmNance How about impeaching him?

Don’t worry, the GOP will give him as much cover as possible.

“Rough ride” how about “questioned”? No need to use euphemism, our democracy is not a game. This is what accountability and checks and balances are all about

He deserves it! I hope he's sitting in a puddle by the time they are done with him.

AG Barr is a high IQ individual. *good luck Infrastructure? realDonaldTrump I would make that a 'Contingent Offer' TopDawgy. Orange Juice or Lemonade?

he is KEWL BEANS !!

If he shows up.

Democrats will press the attorney general about the bombshell news that Mueller had sent him a previously undisclosed letter disputing Barr's summary of his work

Good

Mueller complains about the MEDIA distorting Barr's summary. MEDIA then completely distorts Mueller's complaint. Fake news. Enemy of the people.

How Bill Barr became a GOP heartthrobThe attorney general didn't want to serve Donald Trump. But he did want to fight for a theory of presidential power. AG William Barr has betrayed his constitutional oath, betrayed the American people, betrayed the dedicated career public servants in the Justice Department, and all in the service of kowtowing to Donald Trump and allowing him to remain above the law. History will not be kind. He was for the Democrats...But then... I continued to listen to seasoned former justice dept officials who felt Mr. Barr would RISE to the occasion. Pretty sure they're feeling as blindsided as the rest of us.
