She and any mayor or city council that let rioters destroys businesses and lives. They aided the enemy! Seattle mayor, Portland Mayor and city councils should all be brought up on charges! In portland a man was killed, in Seattle a 19 year old boy was killed. Long prison terms!

When the media purposely spreads lies like this to help one political party over an other, there are problems. It’s time to fix this problem. Vote out of office all Democratz at every level of government in November. Vote straight Republican🇺🇸

Durkin knows she's done, will try anything now.

One of the worst AG’s the USA has ever had. Fox News is the worst culprit it is responsible for the divided USA

Barr will do anything to keep his job, up to and including nullifying a legal election if Trump loses to Biden by declaring all mail-in votes illegal and there for not to be counted!!! GET OUT AND VOTE, TRUMP MUST GO!!!! WETHEPEOPLE

George Soros, George Soros, George Soros...did George Soros buy Fox News?

I believe all those Democrat mayors who refused the offered federal help from the President during their cities’ street violence & murders.....ALL of those mayors should be held accountable for NOT stopping all that violent action as soon as law & order are fully restored.

Barr blasts his own Justice Department prosecutors, accuses them of being 'headhunters'In scathing remarks against his own staff, AG Barr says the US Justice Dept. has recently acted “more like a trade association for federal prosecutors than the administrator of a fair system of justice,' and equated them to preschoolers and 'headhunters.' Yeah, he's definitely not getting a voted out of office going-away party. This is just beyond comprehension, total, sheer madness, words fail me. To turn Heat Rays and other experimental weapons on American People amounts to treason, an act of genocide, attempted murder at least. Why stop with Heat Rays, bring out the flame throwers, and M 60,S The preschoolers were very misbehaved during Obama's watch.
