1. Oh boy.

He went there.

I take that to imply more than that context would reveal.

That is a warning sign, to me. You don't have to read anything into it if you connect it to the bigger picture and think about what he is stating there.

Bill Barr is a fetid gasbag

5. That's true for the short term, but long term it's a different story.

Truth eventually comes out.

6. We will see how long Trump, Barr, et. al.

remain the winners.
They probably won't be the ones writing the last chapter.

existence of the nation is at risk.

8. True, but spooky.

He’s nuts if he thinks his side is going to be writing the history. What’s spooky is that he’s probably nuts.

.... not on how one side or the other wants to spin it. And you Mr. Barr will go down in history as
a traitor to your own country. Trump's being installed into the White House by Russia and
by people like Mr. Flynn was part the biggest crime in America's history and it continues in
God only knows how many dead and sick people because of Trump's actions.

[Yeehah]

Barr and Flynn would spend the rest of their lives breaking rocks in Leavenworth.
