First, Barr lied to the American people by reporting a misleading summary of the Mueller report. Then, In April, Barr lied to Congress about not knowing whether Mueller agreed with Barr's summary of the Russia probe....even though Mueller gave Barr a letter in March complaining that Barr did not capture the nature or substance of the probe.

Trump, unsurprisingly, picked a liar; but we now have proof of at least two separate instances of lying (his pro-Trump version of the Mueller report, and now, lying under oath to Congress about not knowing Mueller's thoughts on Barr's summary of the investigation).

A) Should Barr be convicted of perjury?

B) Why aren't Republicans upset about Trump's hand-picked AG lying for Trump?

A) Why? Trump will only pardon him. I'm sure his salary from Trump includes at least one 'get out of jail free' card, since this is precisely why he was given the position.

B) Are you kidding? If all the thousands of lies Trump himself has told don't bother them, then neither do any lies coming from his toadies.


Barr should be shipped to The Hague and tried for crimes against humanity.

"Did you take notes of your conversation with Mueller?"
"Yes"
"May we have them"
"No"
(Struggling to comprehend what happened)"Why not"
(Barr shrugs)


I love your "democracy" americans 🙂

You have to be careful of those toadies.

A) Did he - provably! - lie under oath? No? Then, obviously, not.

B)Because of your two-party, broken-as-designed-by-the-Founding-Fathers-sanctified-be-their-names, political system. Duh.

Keep your turds to yourself. We don't need him sullying our soil - we prefer to restrict ourselves to actual war criminals.

Speaking of whom, why's that Cheney ba$#@ard not here yet?

a) If Obama ever committed perjury, he deserves jail. No problem with that.

b) I've ripped Hillary MANY times on this site. Even Whodey can attest to that.

But stop bringing her up as a deflection for when Trump or any other Republican does wrong. It seems neither you nor any other conservative has the balls to just admit when GOP members act in corrupt ways. It just makes you all look spineless.
