THREAD: A glimpse into how President Trump’s relentless dishonesty trickles down in his administration, destroying its credibility and harming the nation. In four parts, ALL FROM THIS WEEK:
1/ Yesterday, a federal judge criticized AG Barr’s “lack of candor” and misrepresentations when he spun the Mueller report’s damning findings to benefit Trump. A federal Judge rebuking a sitting Attorney General like this is extraordinary. 
1a/ Here’s 1 ex. of Barr’s spin, I asked after the report was released about his claim Trump “fully cooperated” w/Mueller when TRUMP TRIED TO SHUT DOWN THE INVESTIGATION. Note that Barr asks for the cite in the Mueller report, acting like it was new info.
2/ Also yesterday: Commerce Sec. Ross is STILL MISLEADING THE SENATE when I asked about his false testimony that DOJ alone requested a citizenship Q on the Census. Emails now prove Ross himself pushed the effort, at the request of Kris Kobach & others.
3/ Also this week: A new email HIDDEN by Trump until now shows there was NO INTERAGENCY REVIEW of the Ukraine security assistance despite the president’s lawyers REPEATEDLY pointing to such a review during impeachment as a reason the aid was frozen.

4/ And just this morning: Against ALL evidence, Trump advisor Larry Kudlow stated: “I will still argue…that this [coronavirus] is contained.” This administration needs to get serious. False bravado matters little in the face of (deadly) facts.
