"The Justice Department is not a praetorian guard that watches over society impervious to the ebbs and flows of politics." William Barr at Erik Prince's libertarian alma mater explaining that he works for Trump not you. justice.gov/opa/speech/rem…
And it looks like Marvin the Martian has been pitching to incinerate protestors. npr.org/2020/09/16/913…
Now that Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam have been disarmed, Marvin the Martian is the only left with a weapon. cnn.com/2020/06/08/ent…
Barr's dictatorial lackey remarks are quite revealing. He essentially says the law is in the hands of the executive and "Deep State" career lackey's should not decide who to prosecute. Again this is being said at a pissant private college in Michigan but is quite telling.
What Barr is about to do is abuse the powers of the DoJ and use his office as an election tool for the President. justsecurity.org/72243/bill-bar…
For example Barr wanted to charge the mayor of Portland.
But he has signaled that he is going to indict someone significant as revenge for the Russia investigation into Trump. Barr has the legal power to cook up any charge against any citizen and use the delay in the courts to run the clock on the election. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
Barr must be furious that he couldn't stop Bannon from getting nailed. The White House shut down the FBI's investigation into Erik Prince's crimes last December but is back on full steam. Indict now and pardon or wait until after November ? We have criminals inside the house.
"The Watergate scandal, with its revelations of how dangerous a renegade White House could be, led to reforms meant to ensure an independent Justice Department, one faithful to the law rather than to the Oval Office."
BTW...Jared has tapes...
