That would directly implicate Barr in Obstruction of Justice.

Reading so many of these comments. Apparently the only people that are OK would be Liberal Democrats To listen to some of these Never-Trumpers, Eric (my people) Holder or Loretta (the matter) Lynch should be nominated. Absolutely hysterical- any Trump supporter must recuse. GFY.

Great Answer.

It’s not really about firing Mueller - it’s really about pushing him to wrap it up or be shut down. The whole witchhunt was based on lies & that’s the reason to stop it.

“Without cause”..... but here’s guessing there’s a mountain of cause already - waiting for the right guy to move it. 🤞

Do you believe him?

I don’t trust anyone who won’t state that they would be against overturning Roe vs Wade.

The only cause the POTUS needs to have to fire Mueller is that he wishes it.

You are making his assurances sound more robust than they actually were. Do a better job. If Barr is confirmed, he MUST recuse himself from the Russia investigation & all collateral investigations. His partisanship & loyalty to *45 have been amply demonstrated. impeach45NOW

Any doubt why William Barr is nominated to be AG, among us, Slick Willie’s mouth contains an entire Barnum and Bailey Circus. Convoluted defenses, plausible denials, as slippery as petroleum jelly, Interpretation of the “truth” could make Muller’s report disappear undoubtedly.

And like Trump we know he won't lie! He already stated he will protect the president in his writings and in his statement about the report. He will only show what the President wants to be put out. He is a trump puppet like the rest of them. That is why Trump chose him.

make me the attorney general realDonaldTrump

But make up cause....

He’s a liar! He’s a Trump follower

Trump attorney general pick William Barr says Mueller is not on a ‘witch hunt’William Barr, President Trump's nominee for attorney general, promised to let special counsel Robert Mueller complete his Russia investigation. What's Russian for 'witch'? Whatever it is, Mueller has found quite a few of them, and pretty soon it sounds like he'll bag the Wizard of Odd. The bourgeois in this photo is revolting!

Mueller 'will be allowed to complete his work,' says Trump attorney general pick William BarrBarr's opening testimony, which was made available a day ahead of his confirmation hearing, appears to be a direct attempt to calm Democrats about his reportedly expansive views of presidential power and his narrower view of Mueller's authority. Yea, he'll be gone in a couple of weeks. He looks like Steve Bannon cleaned up, sober, and not homeless. Finishing the work and letting it be released to the right people are two different things. This pledge is not enough.
