Barr on TV right now

[EarlG]

Specifically blaming "leftist" "antifa-like" agitators for the rioting.

[StarlightGold]

1. And saying it's illegal

to cross state lines to incite violence...surely he means that using Twitter to shout Out across the country that “If there’s looting there will be shooting”. Right? Right?

[ornotna]

2. quelle surprise

So it wasn't a bunch of "good people" then? Ever the obedient tool.

[Generic Other]

3. UNREAL

On a positive note, CNN immediately contradicted by quoting Minnesota officials' reports of white supremacists being involved. Barr is clearly trying to cover for Trump's "good" people.

LIARS and SCUM.

7. I was watching last night the attack on CNN in Atlanta . . .

My family and I was shaking our heads on why would the protesters be attacking CNN. We all came to the conclusion that it was RWers who initiated that.

8. +1

Excellent point.

[Generic Other]

20. Don Lemon is an ally

but not to the racists and Proud Boys.

[musette_sf]

4. Trying to get the spin in

before the mayors of the Twin Cities drop their info on who is *really* doing the violence?

Good luck with that, consigliere.

[still_one]

5. The Governor said it was extreme outside right wing elements, and would provide details

[malaise]

6. That's not what state and local folks are saying

The fascists are trying to set their agenda.

[Zoonart]

9. Yes... the mythical Antifa.

Know how you can recognize Antifa? They are unicorns dressed as ninjas.

[malaise]

10. ROFL

The Con wants a bloodbath

[smb]

11. Nice Try, Dumbass, But Too Many Of Your Provacateurs Got Caught

[GeorgeGist]

12. Mr. Barr trying to incite a race war.

[bigtree]

13. Agnew said what?

[dalton99a]

14. Trump's consigliere speaks

[MoonRiver]

15. Asshole has no evidence, but that won't stop him from spewing vile, right wing propaganda!

[cayugafalls]

16. He is wrong. Of course they are going to blame the left.

I would not be surprised if they were Boogaloo Bois and others bent on destruction.

I was watching the live stream last night and a lot of cars were from out of state. As far away as Ohio.

Not sure what the real answer here is, but I saw a lot of the protesters leave the area at 8pm. One streamer even commented on how many people were leaving.

[JudyM]

19. We need more citizen journalists following these guys.

[DesertRat]

17. Bill Barr is a f'ing liar.

[rockfordfile]

18. That's Russian propaganda he's pushing

[Takket]

21. "i can't blame antifa so i'll just say antifa-like and now the base thinks it is antifa"
