It is a mystery



I am having an epiphany with this hearing. The moment Trump handed over his written questions is the moment this thing was over for him and his family. Mueller is going to come out of this thing smelling like a flower and the perception of honor will be restored to the DOJ for those in the Trump camp. The leftists are in for a rude awakening.

Leahy not wanting Barr to work with Trump, Trump will want Barr's loyalty blah blah..

BTW was Holder and LL and all past AG's loyal?

Leahy wanting Barr to recuse. Leahy could die talking for fricks sakes he seems so frail.

Agreed. He’s a mess.


Seems like Dems are afraid to go after Barr too much. Seems like they plan to affirm.

And there it is. Bar says he gives zero fricks about politics. Trump wants a credible AG (friends with Bob). Trump knows that he is cleared. This is an attempt to lessen the inevidible sky scream when the report is released.

Yeah. In the context of appropriations and moving money appropriated by Congress.

He’s trying to see where Barr would stand if Trump tries to move money for the wall.

Johnathan Carl has consulted with people on the Mueller team and he stated that don't get your expectations too high for a damning report against Trump.

I'll trust but would like to verify before believing Johnathan Carl but all the actions and behavior by Trump and the people around him intricate that Mueller will issue a report that will dash the left's collusion conspiracy.

Yeah. I think Trump realizes what a yuge mistake it was to appoint Sessions as a campaign favor and he needed to get someone in there who knows the job, can get it fixed, and will disarm congress.

Barr checks all those boxes.

You can tell by the way the narrative has shifted to "public statements made by Trump" that the SC is not expected to produce a smoking gun regarding Trump/Kremlin collusion. The fact that people are floating the "unwitting conspirator" further lets me know the SC will most likely have a report full of innuendo with no teeth

Why would Dems fight the nomination...he has been personal friends with Mueller for 30 YEARS!



aaaand he stated he didn't think Bob would be involved in a witch hunt. Also has great respect for Rosenstein, and Sessions did the right thing by recusing himself.
Which one of those positions could not have come out of the mouth of a democrat?

But... Sessions also said he would take advice of counsel (so he recused ). Barr was explicitly asked if he would do the same, and he basically said no. He would consider their advice, but the decision is his.

He’s just trying to make sure he doesn’t burn any bridges.
