"No one from the inner core of the Trump crime cult ever really leaves. You saw this with Manafort, Stone, Bannon, Flynn, etc. Barr is part of an inner sanctum of corrupt Republicans that goes back to the 1980s, especially Iran-Contra." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"Barr spent his career being the GOP clean-up guy. Under Trump, he covered up the Mueller probe and the Jeffrey Epstein case. Before that, he covered up Iran-Contra and multiple cases of white-collar crime. He moves in and out of office." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"Barr alternates between criming from the inside in the White House and criming on the outside as a 'consultant'. It's likely that Barr will continue his crime spree from a distance now that he's accomplished his Trump admin goals." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"Do not dare rehabilitate Bill Barr. He did not see the light. Institutionalist propagandists will want to rehabilitate him to try to save their own reputations because they're so mortified they vouched for him. Don't fall for it!" -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"Is it possible Trump is about to do something super illegal and Barr doesn't want to be tied to it? Yes. We saw a similar departure with DOD's Esper, who may have also left because something is coming that's too horrific even for him." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"Barr has no bottom. He did what he needed to do, which was bury the truth and get legacy media to go along with it. Barr's resignation letter was humiliating; it makes Chamberlain look like a Marvel superhero." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"It's more fun to crime in the background where you're free of legal implications. Barr can now retreat into the warm arms of Opus Dei, mercenary armies, white-collar crime law firms, Kremlin dark money, and Handmaid's Tale lifestyles." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"Barr's father is involved in the Epstein story and Trump is heavily implicated. I don't find it coincidental that Epstein was arrested and allegedly died in prison under Barr and none of it was investigated by the DOJ. Barr buried it." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"Barr also fired Geoffrey Berman of SDNY who was investigating several financial crimes of the Trump family and its lawyers, Cohen and Giuliani. Barr got a lot of items on his wishlist done and is seeing himself out." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
