and then selling his soul to Trump for what would seem as a small fee of what his potential earning would be as private Attorney. Well now I think because of his actions by protecting this Treason's Russian Asset he pretty much shit in his nest as far as being able to pursue lucrative career with top earning because of his questionable ethical actions

Entry level of an assistant attorney general (1-3 years of experience) earns an average salary of $99,889. On the other end, a senior level assistant attorney general (8+ years of experience) earns an average salary of $179,126.)

[question everything]

1. Isn't he supposed to leave office?

2. Trumpy's corruption spreads like a virus. Only several weeks ago, it was Barr.

Now it's Rosenstein. Trumpy gains power by the day. He's following the Fascists' Playbook. He's succeeding.

The Dems are perfecting their sternly worded letters.

5. The soul of everything Trump touches dies. That's a truism.

defend Bill Barr ?

6. I just think it's a bit strange that there's been a couple pro Barr cleanup articles, at the same

time as a Rosenstein - bad article.

Edit Lawrence and Rachel discussed Judge Napolitano's comments, and linked that to Rosenstein's defence of himself shortly after, coupled with these "well placed sources" covering for Barr and sticking it to Rosenstein.

Attorney General Bill Barr has still not explained why he concluded that there was not enough evidence to conclude President Donald Trump committed obstruction of justice, despite extensive evidence for the crime on multiple occasions in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report.

Barr seems to be worried about his own lack of an explanation, however, as signaled by a new Washington Post report citing an anonymous “senior Justice Department official” offering a defense of the attorney general’s conclusion.

In particular, the report discusses the 2017 incident in which Trump ordered his former campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, to get then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions to curtail the special counsel’s investigation to stop probing the 2016 election and his own actions. Lewandowski never carried out this order, but Mueller argued that the attempt met all the criteria for obstruction of justice (though he declined to make a final prosecutorial decision).

Barr effectively disagreed with the case Mueller made. And the senior Justice Department official tried to justify this decision to the Post:

“All the attorney general was deciding was whether this was a prosecutable offense, and we don’t bring criminal charges at the department unless we believe we can prove them beyond a reasonable doubt to a jury,” a senior Justice Department official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter. The White House declined to comment.
