Is Bill Barr worse than Whitaker and Sessions combined?

[malaise]

What should be his punishment?

[Mr. Ected]

1. Just another obstructer obstructing poorly

A parallel provision concerning the “due administration of justice” is 18 USC 1505. This statute applies not to judicial proceedings, but rather to any proceeding before an administrative agency, department, or committee of the United State, including Congress. It applies to investigative demands from federal departments, including subpoenas, and inquiries by the House of Representatives, but not civil or criminal trials in US District Courts.

The potential penalty for his offense is a maximum of 5 years in federal prison.

2. They sure are sloppy in this attempted cover-up

It's unbelievable

Hope he ends up in prison

[klook]

3. Reminder: Barr was instrumental in securing pardons

for Elliott Abrams and other Iran-Contra criminals:

He’s a shameless partisan hack, and he may get away with it again.

[malaise]

4. What I don't get is that I thought Barr was just a corrupt Bushie

but clearly he's just a partisan ReTHUG hack.
This is madness

[Pachamama]

5. They must have something on him to have brought him back out to do their dirty work & commit crimes

It is madness....but this is the only explanation for why someone like Barr would effectively come out of "retirement" and do what he is doing....

[malaise]

6. What I found strange was that they rolled him out in the middle

of John McCain's funeral.

[Laurian]

7. The media created an undeserved aura of respectability around him.

Compared to Sessions and Whitaker he may have seemed like a respected establishment figure, but a thorough examination of his past reveals an untrustworthy character.

Hard to believe they dug up that fossil, but he’s sure serving his intended purpose.

[malaise]

9. +1,000

I can't process this madness

[OnDoutside]

8. Yes he is, but no he won't get caught. He has the experience of being a devious asshole.

[librechik]

10. no, since all 3 are equally loathesome

but KKK Jeff Sessions is the moron who takes the cake.

11. Read his letter, he sounds like Rudy but with softer tone. "this isn't a summary", "its a summary of

... 'principle conclusions' ... "

Stupid
