(40,252 posts)and he was either not able to answer or he answered poorly.
1. He claimed that he wasn't the only decision maker making it seem like he was throwing Rosenstein under the bus.
2. He admitted that he did not read or review the evidence and documents that accompanied Mueller's report.
3. He could not say for certain whether anyone in The White House suggested or asked him to initiate an investigation against anyone.
4. He couldn't answer questions about his contact with Trump.
He was stuttering, sweating, and squirming. It appeared that he was struggling not to pee in his pants.

(15,311 posts)evidence before deciding there was neither obstruction or conspiracy (collusion). Barr was uncomfortable when she said that no US atty would decide to charge/not charge a case without looking at all the evidence first.
Barr wrapped himself around the axle when she asked him if he'd asked DoJ ethics officials if Rosenstein should be involved in a charge/no charge decision when Rosenstein himself is a fact witness.

(5,023 posts)Clearly Barr is covering the fact that he is in contact with Trump on the Mueller investgation spinoffs. Clearly Trump is talking to Barr about what and who to investigate.

(4 posts)I want that bastard out of there but I also want congress to make the case in explicit as a Stormy Daniels movie so that the public will have no doubt. For that reason I don't support a rush to impeachment but today's testimony certainly makes it more likely.

I'm glad she did give Barr any slack.
