Attorney General Bill Barr called for Trump to 'stop the tweeting' after the President called prosecutors' proposals on Roger Stone’s sentencing a “miscarriage of justice”

Getty Images: U.S. Attorney General William Barr has spoken out on Donald Trump’s Twitter attacks on prosecutors in the case of his former advisor Roger Stone, saying that he won’t be “bullied,” amid concerns that Trump may have pressured the Justice Department to help out his longtime friend.: “I’m not going to be bullied or influenced by anybody . . . whether it’s Congress, a newspaper editorial board or the president.

Barr’s display of exasperation comes as all four prosecutors in Roger Stone’s case quit on Tuesday, hours after higher-ups at the Justice Department overruled them to seek leniency, instead of the seven- to nine-year sentence that the lawyers were pushing for. Earlier this week, Trump tweeted that the nine-year sentence proposed by prosecutors was “a horrible and very unfair situation.”

It is a miscarriage of justice ... the DOJ failed miserably and overly penalized many people . There seems to be one set of “rules” for deep state never -Trumpers and another set for anyone associated with realDonaldTrump

Besieged AG Barr knocks Trump but still backs plot to help convicted Trump aideIn a rare rebuke, Attorney General Bill Barr admits Trump makes his job harder by tweeting, but still stands by helping convicted Trump aide, Roger Stone. MSNBC’s Ari Melber reports on why Barr is trying to quell the bipartisan firestorm over stepping in to “take charge” of the Stone case by reducing his sentence and why Barr is essentially saying he backs the plan but just don’t admit it on Twitter. lovetogive2 AriMelber You should let the BBCNews know this, as their reporting is channelling Lou Dobbs. AriMelber Why did bill Barr's father hire Jeffrey Epstein to teach children when Epstein didn't have a degree? Could Epstein have blackmailed the Barrs (father and son) into it back in the 80's? Does Trump now hold that blackmail? Is that why Epstein was 'suicided'? Hmmmm AriMelber This is a bit more like it. Earlier it was Barr v Trump. These crooks are all in the loop.
