Apparently people like BARR inhabit an ALTERNATIVE UNIVERSE where they think REALITY is whatever they happen to think or say it is.
Well yeah, that's the point of alternative facts.
shareHopefully a DEMOCRAT will be ELECTED in NOV, and then get someone to check into BARR's background and see if PUTIN's been placing MONEY into an OFF SHORE account for him.
Because that would also explain the reason why he's acting more like PUTIN's PUPPET and doing his BIDDING than acting like an ATTORNEY GENERAL for this country should behave.
They should also check to see if LINDSEY and some of the others also have OFF SHORE accounts that RUSSIAN's have deposited money into.
Because they definitely behave like they're on PUTIN'S PAY ROLE.
Eventually, the horrors of the Trump administration will be made bare for all to see regardless of Nov. 2020. It is one thing for Trump to convince the Russian 'bots' at work on the net but he has also corrupted the ENTIRE Republican government establishment to the point where facts matter no more! They no longer speak about 'Small govt, low taxation, family values. Instead they are now pushing Russian propaganda and EVERYTHING anti Trump is untrue; their mantra is now "Fake News".
I am reminded of the book 'Animal Farm' where the Pigs, with the help of some traitor animals changed the animals' revolution into a nightmare. The poor animals woke up each day to see that their "commandments" were changed somehow but could not understand exactly how. Until they saw that the one that read " All animals are equal" Now read: "All animals are equal...but some animals are MORE equal than others"
That is where the modern Republican party has now reached because of Trump! This is NOT something they will be able to easily reverse post Trump. This will NOT be good for the entire country,when a third of its population has been bred to live on propaganda! Trump's poison is NOT any of his policies, he hardly has any beyond 'enrich himself through deals'. No his most lasting damaging effect will be his steady attempt to erode THE TRUTH, legality, justice from the American landscape. 13,000 plus lies and counting!
Animal Farm was an allegory about communism. When the animals revolted what happened? They all worked collectively, yes? You komrades like that, yes? And then what happened? Napoleon pushed out Snowball and always used him as a threat against the system and made the animals work to whose benefit? The animals? No. To himself. Thus, why a socialistic system sucks and will never lead to true communism.
As you idiots allowed Obama to enact policy from the White House and said NOTHING, it only makes you all HYPOCRITES. You speak of eroding truth and legality and justice when that's all the dems have been doing during the Clinton and Obama years. So spare us your sanctimonious chepooka, because nobody is buying it other than your dimwitted komrades.
The Republican Party is the one acting as communists now: spouting Russian propaganda; violating their principals and their tenets to follow ONE criminal. The allegory in Animal Farm is applicable not just to the Russian Revolution but to any political force that is based on people blindly following ONE man based on LIES!!!
Trump was elected after he asked for and got Russian help in 2016 in the form of thousands of FB ads and Bots putting out disinformation and colluding openly with those who had emails stolen from the DNC (Wikileaks- the Russians) Imo, he is an illegitimate president and he WILL NOT win re-election, not now we are aware...people won't stay home this time.
After his AG corrupted the conclusion of the Mueller Report Trump immediately went to what HE KNEW helped him win Foreign Interference. This time he got caught. The Impeachment hearings so far have establish plenty of direct and indirect testimony to his guilt. The president and Mulvaney both admitted to the principle act and motivation on live tv. The Republicans have NOT tried to mount ANY factual defense and the president has obstructed the search for the truth. Circumstantial evidence is used everyday in this land to convict people of crimes. Just because you did not see it snow overnight, snow on the ground in the morning is pretty good circumstantial evidence that IT DID SNOW overnight!
If the Republicans uniformly fail to vote to acquit in the Senate, any president going forward with either the House or the Senate will become a King. If that is so GOP watch out! If there is a president Warren or Sanders one day, and that day will come, watch out for your guns, taxes, your religion etc.
The arc of history is bending in the Democrats favor. Trump is a corrupt blip in a trend that can't be stopped. The more the GOP fights the worse they will make their future!
Spouting Russian propaganda? What exactly is the propaganda you're speaking of? Violating their principals and their tenets? What principals and tenets, exactly?
I don't care what your opinion of Trump is. It's irrelevant. Does the US Government recognize him as President of the USA? Yes. If you're all butthurt about it, maybe you should write to the DNC to pick a better candidate next time. In the meantime, why don't you move to Venezuela?
So because you don't like what the Mueller report had to say, now you say the AG corrupted it. Boo hoo hoo! Cry baby much? Mueller was hand picked by the dems. His investigatory staff was Page and Strzok that harbored a huge amount of animus toward Trump and they were also in charge of Hillary's email investigation too? They should've been removed a lot earlier.
Look fat, here's the deal. Pelosi said they wouldn't begin impeachment hearings unless their was bipartisan support. Did any republicans vote for impeachment? No and two dems voted no. Was there any bipartisan support? No.
Did Schiff speak to the whistleblower? Yes. WaPo even said he was lying. When they were questioning Vindman, he said he doesn't know the whisteblower. If he didn't, then why did Schiff say limit the questioning? How can you protect an anonymous person's name, if you supposedly don't even know who that person is in the first place? Clearly, they both knew who the whistleblower was. It's a joke and waste of taxpayer funds.
Will become a king? Puh-leeze! Overdramatic much? You talk about a king, yet Obama BYPASSED a branch of government and enacted policy and yet WHERE'S YOUR OUTRAGE? Hypocrite much?
You'd like Miss Pow Wow Chow or Free Shit Bernie and take away our liberties, yes? Why do you even live here?🙄
If you believe what you say, then just let nature take its course. Why all the bitching and moaning? You're on the "winning" side already, yes? However, if you're not, boo hoo hoo to you!😁😁😆🤪
Sandman27,
You know what I have NEVER heard from ANY Trump defender over this Impeachment? No the President did not do this and his is not guilty. That's simply because you can't say that and he is GUILTY!
"What exactly is the propaganda you're speaking of? Violating their principals and their tenets? What principals and tenets, exactly?"
How about the Russian originated "theory" that Ukraine interfered with 2016? How about the Republican notions of 'individual responsibility', 'family values', 'moral values', 'fiscal responsibility'? Have you forgotten these already in your rush to the alter to the vulgarian?
"So because you don't like what the Mueller report had to say," I loved the Mueller Report because I READ it! Did you? What I hated was AG Barr's corruption of his conclusion. According to Mueller DJT's campaign solicited and accepted Russian aid on numerous occasions and the ONLY reason he did not find . The ONLY reason he did not charge crimes is because he could according to the Dept of Justice and to suggest anything would put Trump at a disadvantage.
"Did Schiff speak to the whistleblower?" Look, Schiff and the Whistle Blower, are NOT primary witnesses to the wrongdoing alleged. They played a role in bringing it to our knowledge. If they did something wrong, prosecute them! Besides, the Whistle blower's account has been substantiated. I hope the Rep at the trial come up with better arguments.
"Will become a king? Puh-leeze! Overdramatic much?"
When people decide to ignore FACTS other people DO NOT forget. Remember the O.J. trial and how upset people were at jury nullification (look it up) Just because the GOP can nullify the facts this time around doesn't mean they should. If the President's does NOT present a thorough defense of his actions they should vote the TRUTH! If they don't, do you imagine that any future Dem. President will be convicted and removed by a Democrat held House or Senate? contd.
Trump is not guilty. Happy now?
Individual responsibility? Seriously? You komrades have none of that and you lecture Individual Responsibiilty? What a joke!
Family and Moral Values? You dems bitched about the govt preaching that in the Reagan years and now you're bitching the govt should? Hypocrite much?
Fiscal responsibility? What does that have anything to do with the impeachment? Nevertheless, what about it? Obama double the debt. Where was your outrage then? Hypocrite much?
You read it and then CHERRY PICKED IT. You ignored the facts you didn't like and only highlight what you do like. If you like the Mueller report, then how can you not accept its conclusion?
You know Schiff is partisan. We know the whistleblower is partisan. Thus, the entire allegation is based off of animus. How credible are the sources if the sources hold an extreme level of bias, pray tell? Yet, you don't even consider this because it doesn't fit your narrative.
Look fat, here's the deal. Did the dems give any due process to Trump? No. Why? Because they don't have to. Should he be given it, yes, but the dems want to run the narrative. Do the republicans get to subpoena who they want? No. How can the President present a defense if he's denied the proper discovery phase, pray tell?
Go back and review the Clinton impeachment. The republicans are saying THE EXACT SAME THING the dems said back then, and yet it doesn't apply. Nadler was there back then with that glorious neck fat. He's a hypocrite.
So where was your outrage when Obama bypassed an entire branch of government?
When Clinton was impeached, some Dem. voted to impeach and I believe remove him. He wasn't removed but the Dems did not vote lockstep to condone his misdeeds.
"Trump is not guilty. Happy now?"
Yeah, that's not a defense, but I guess it's all you have!
That's right. In this impeachment, there is no bipartisan support. Something Pelosi said they had to have to initiate proceedings. She lied. What else is new?
You said you never heard somebody say he wasn't guilty. I just did. Now you're moving the goal posts. What else is new?
"You said you never heard somebody say he wasn't guilty. I just did."
How about someone who is under oath say it? Someone who could be jailed for perjury say it? Or best yet someone who could be impeached for lying, say it? Crickets!
"In this impeachment, there is no bipartisan support. Something Pelosi said they had to have to initiate proceedings. She lied."
What are you twelve?!?!. The Reps ALL suddenly lose their marbles; decide to collectively lick T's arse and abandon common sense and that is Pelosi's fault!?!? God, you got to have better reasoning than THAT! As an intelligent human you should be ashamed to make such a circular dishonest argument....but I guess you are a Rep so that explains things!
I think you guys have persuaded yourselves that the American people are fools. That they will believe the rubbish arguments you are making here or that they will swallow their pride and accept to be led by a criminal because their 401k looks good. I have more faith in the populace as a whole, but we'll see.

Sandman27 contd,
The House rules you hate Adam Schiff so much for were created by John Boehner. Let's be clear NO Dem. House or Senate is going to LOOK at impeaching a Pres. Warren or Sanders NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO!!! So watch out for your guns and liberties and taxes and religious freedom!
"Look fat, here's the deal. Pelosi said they wouldn't begin impeachment hearings unless their was bipartisan support."
Why the 'Ad Hominem'? I thought we were discussing? Use arguments if you have any! Nice, Pelosi was imagining a time when Republicans were REASONABLE. Don't worry she( no Dem.) will make that mistake again.
"If you believe what you say,...boo hoo hoo to you!😁😁😆🤪"
Do you believe the GOP will survive as a nativists, mainly straight white male Evangelical party that Trump has made it? Before you answer remember that Trump ONLY won the electoral college after massive Russian assistance from ads and Bots; a last minute devastating revelations from the FBI about his opponent; and massive apathy on the left. Do you think that is going to happen again? ( I know Trump is trying to get the foreign interference thing going) Do you think all the REST of America (the non evangelical; the LGBTQ community; the immigrant and minority community; the decent community; those concerned about gun violence, ) Do you really think they are going to sit out 2020?
I know there are some in these groups who still support Trump, (secretly and not so secretly).I know some of them personally.But I also know MOST of these people are NOT going to sit this one out...NO WAY! Now that we have seen what this man is about, I can assure you the gap in the popular vote will be more than 5% this time around.
The leaders of your party understand this. That is why they are ramping up schemes to intimidate voters; gerrymander districts; cut down on voting days; disenfranchise ex-felons anything and EVERYTHING to tilt the scales to the GOP. Trump WILL LOSE in 2020. of that I am 100% confident!
Is that a threat? Clearly, you dems won't oppose your own regardless of how blatant the President oversteps his boundaries. Obama proved that.
The Ad Hominem? I don't know. Ask Joe Biden.
Define "reasonable". I don't see any dems being reasonable, but I do see a lot of them being unconstitutional.
No. GOP is mainly straight and white, but the conservative views don't make it exclusive to that. 1st and 2nd amendment right advocates don't have to be straight and white. Libertarians don't have to be straight and white. You don't have to be straight and white to be a fiscal conservative either.
I don't care if he only won the electoral college. That's how the system was created and rightfully so. Russian ads and bots? Like what? Don't forget all of the FREE PR from CNN and MSNBC.
Last minute FBI revelations? That's why Trump won? Let me ask you this question. Did Trump win or did Hillary lose?
The decent community? And you bitch about ad hominems??? Hypocrite much?
Go vote. Go tell your pals to vote. Good for you. I don't care.
You think felons should be allowed to vote? Gerrymandering doesn't affect the Presidential vote. Are you gerrymandering a whole section out of the union??? 🙈🙉🙊
Intimidate voters? Pray elaborate.
100% confident? Then what are you bitching about then? Just sit back and let nature take it's course. That is, if you actually believe what you say. If you're wrong, boo hoo hoo to you!
BRAVO!!!
WELL PUT SPEAR!!!
But the PROBLEM with the REPULICANS began way before THE SCAM MAN found a way to WORM his way into OFFICE.
Remember how TRICKY DICK NIXON also TRIED TO CHEAT his way into OFFICE by BREAKING into the DNC HEADQUARTERS at the WATERGATE HOTEL???
Then REAGAN also SOLD DRUGS as a way to ARM the CONTRAS which results in IRANGATE.
And SHRUB JR. also LIED about IRAQ having WEAPONS of MASS DESTRUCTION, which is also why we're still fighting THE LONGEST WAR that we've ever fought in our HISTORY.
So the PROBLEMS with the GOP began way BEFORE this other CLOWN ever found a WAY to CHEAT his way into OFFICE with WIKI LEAKS HACKING the DNC.
And let's also HOPE this kind of BS ENDS now that we also know THE SCAM MAN has been trying TO CHEAT AGAIN as a way to win the 2020 ELECTION, by holding the MONEY HOSTAGE that UKRAINE needed to protect themselves from PUTIN.
Don't get me wrong joi2049 the GOP have never been paragons of virtue but at least they gave lip service to certain virtues and admitted FACTS. Now with this guy we are in true BIZARRO world where up is down and LIES win the day. After Trump, and there will be an after Trump, the GOP and the country will have a huge mess to straighten out.
shareAfter the 2012 ELECTION when OBAMA beat McCain, they were saying how they needed to try to appeal more to minority groups as a way to try to win the NEXT ONE.
But instead of that, what we get is this RACIST SCAM MAN who ran the FAKE UNIVERSITY and the FAKE CHARITY saying RACIST things about HISPANICS and MUSLIMS, the same groups the PARTY said they planned to try to be more appealing to.
Meanwhile, MINORITY BABIES keep being BORN in GREATER NUMBERS than WHITE ones, which is also why by the YEAR 2050 the WHITE RACE will be the MINORITY GROUP in the USA.
So what one suspects is the GOP will simply cease to EXIST for that reason. Because there aren't enough people who belong to it being born to keep it from going EXTINCT.
And that FACT is also what FRIGHTENS them into blaming others for their FATE. Because they're also AWARE of the way they've MISTREATED other MINORITY GROUPS, and FEAR that they'll be treated the same way when they've become a MINORITY GROUP themselves.
So instead of having a MESS to straighten out, they'll most likely go the way of the DINOSAUR and simply cease to EXIST anymore. And maybe the INDEPENDENT PARTY will also replace them as the OTHER MAJOR PARTY in opposition to the DEMOCRATIC PARTY???

LOL!
shareThe IG doesn’t have the authority needed to fully explore questions about the investigation that extend beyond the Justice Department. That’s why he appointed Durham— to go where Horowitz could not go.
shareHe's pissed because he cannot alter anything to Trump's liking. Fat bitch.
