was a real joke.
The Senate Democrats didn't want to hear any responses from Barr ....... rather they wanted their time in front of the TV cameras to slander Barr and get their few minutes of air time....all grandstanding.
Today the House was to hold a hearing and Barr refused to be submitted to further abuse.
I say "Excellent decision."

The government has no rights. Only the people have rights which empowers the government.
We have enough gun laws, what we need is IDIOT control.
Blood makes you related. Loyalty makes you family.
I thought getting old would take longer. :shock:

Kremlin seeks to argue that it?s as innocent as the U.S. president.
BY AMY MACKINNON | MARCH 26, 2019, 12:15 PM
It may well be that, as special counsel Robert Mueller apparently concluded, there was no collusion between Russia and Donald Trump?s 2016 presidential campaign. But in the days since a summary of the Mueller report emerged, the Kremlin and the Trump administration have almost been singing from the same page in their reaction.
Back in Washington, Trump has been raging against his political enemies, especially the media, since Attorney General William Barr summarized Mueller?s conclusions on Sunday. ?The Mainstream Media is under fire and being scorned all over the World as being corrupt and FAKE. For two years they pushed the Russian Collusion Delusion when they always knew there was No Collusion,? Trump tweeted Tuesday.
In Moscow, meanwhile, Russia?s foreign ministry spokeswoman suggested that Western journalists should apologize for their coverage of the Mueller investigation into links between Moscow and the Trump campaign during the 2016 U.S. presidential race.
?How does American propaganda work and produce such massive fake content?? she wrote in a Facebook post.
Other Russian officials have also exploited the Mueller report?s conclusions to argue that Russia, like Trump, has been a victim of ?two years of unceasing lies,? as Konstantin Kosachev, the chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Russian parliament?s upper house, put it, not only about collusion but also over the idea that there was ever any Russian interference in the first place.
Russian Sen. Alexey Pushkov, well known for his hawkish stance, wrote on Twitter, ?It has been confirmed that all these allegations were fabricated.?
?Given the official Kremlin line has always been denying any sort of interference, period, I think this is being received as essentially confirming that narrative,? said Alina Polyakova, a fellow at the Brookings Institution.
Moscow, also taking its cue from Trump, has begun to claim as well that it was the Russia state media?s b?te noire, Ukraine, that tried to interfere in the 2016 election in favor of Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. Last Wednesday, the U.S. president tweeted: ?As Russia Collusion fades, Ukrainian plot to help Clinton emerges.?
?The Russia investigation in the USA is over. Ukrainegate is beginning,? read one op-ed headline on site of the state-owned RIA Novosti.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, commenting on the initial findings of the report, also suggested that the Americans were still deluding themselves about Russian involvement.
Believing the Democrats and their controlled media outlets is the height of foolishness. They are simply pizzed 'cause their beloved Hillary lost the election, plain and simple.

Yes, more wins for the good guys. Back in the day, Russia was our nemesis. But in a modern world we really would do well to be friends with them, and not some of these other 3rd world stinkholes.
Build a bridge across the Bering Strait.
To and extent, yes.
They are more upset, however, that our President has been confirmed by their boy to not have been a traitor.
Comey has stated that the Russians have won because of how they sowed discord for more than two years after our election.
Rich.
Discord was sowed by those who created the false accusation.
Discord was sowed by those who perpetuated the false accusation for months after it was obvious that said accusation was false.
There are rumblings that Mueller and his team had reached the 'No Collusion' determination well before the 2018 mid-terms.
If true (and one would hope the truth is being thoroughly investigated) the withholding of such information would be the emodiment of the politicization of our criminal justice system as stated by Barr during the hearing.
I for one hope this is not found to be true. If it is true, one can only conclude that the last year of the investigation was undertaken not only to persue unrelated charges against Trump's flawed associations, but also to perpetuate doubt in the minds of the electorate so as to sway the mid-terms.
There would have had to have been a significant number of people involved in this delay, and it is hard to imagine such deeply seated corruption.

Why would anyone have to imagine it? We have seen it first hand? The other thing is just because someone or the pundits poke fun and conspiracy theorists, does not necessarily mean that the conspiracy doesn't exist. There was alot of money spent and funneled through alot of "Charities" run by Democrats.
Heck, I even saw videos of the guys talking about how they were paid to disrupt the Trump rallies, even before he won.
The list of people who did conspire is so great, that Trump is going to have to pardon a bunch to make room for the next batch.
Back to Bill Barr. Give the man credit for not walking out of the circus freak show the Dems put on. No suprise Barr will not return to be assaulted again by the fools that represent the foolish in our land.
