Wed May 1, 2019, 02:41 PM

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.

My Swedish wife, had this pure pale white complexion with blue eyes and blonde everywhere.

Then how did he know the evidence was "insufficient"? Another Barr lie!!


Thank you for your summary. I haven't been able to watch.

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.

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.

Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) accused Attorney General William Barr of lying to Congress during his testimony to lawmakers and asked Barr if he thought it was OK for President Donald Trump to lie.

Couldn't answer any of the questions directly, stuttering, sweating, squirming around in his seat, eyes nervously darting all around the room. It was a masterpiece on her part.

I wish people would reserve their votes/likes for discussion threads with actual substance. Clicking on this to see what it was was 100% pointless.

I give a rec simply because I agree with the OP, such as the case here, or think it outstanding even if I don't agree with the sustance but it makes one think.

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.

However I remember how she put the preceding AG, the Keebler Cracker, on the hot seat.

I'm glad she did give Barr any slack.
