Opinion| Lawrence David| On Monday, Attorney General William Barr sat down with Fox News’ Brett Baier for a wide ranging discussion… everything from Antifa and other activist groups, the current racial discord with its accompanying riots, looting, arson, and attacks against the police and…
… The criminal probe of rogue Obama-era intelligence officials being conducted by U.S. Attorney John Durham.
The interview aired in two parts… Part one on Monday and Part Two on Tuesday. The progress being made by Attorney Durham aired on Tuesday…
AG Barr: This isn’t being driven by producing a report. We are trying to get to a point where we can hold accountable anyone who crossed the line and committed a criminal violation…
… They seem to have ignored all exculpatory evidence that was building up and continued pell-mell to push it [the investigation] forward…
… The other area of concern is that after the election, even though they were closing down some of it [the investigation] as we’ve seen in the Flynn case, saying there’s nothing here, for some reason they went right back at it even at a time where the evidentiary support, or claimed support like the dossier, was falling apart.
It’s very hard to understand why they continued to push, and even make public testimony that they had an investigation going when it was becoming painfully obvious, or should have been obvious to anyone, that there was nothing there.
Public testimony… that was deliberately leaked to, and repeated by, our so-called mainstream media, in direct contravention of DOJ guidelines… and without which there’d have been no there, there… it was all bullshit…
Keep in mind that these comments are coming from Attorney General William Barr… a buttoned down guy, in the mold of the great lawmen who preceded him, if ever there was one.
These comments aren’t coming from Obama-era lackeys intent on destroying their president’s successor, or from the Obama-aligned media who allowed themselves to be used as pawns in a political assault… a coup attempt… on our duly-elected president, no matter what lies they had to tell.
Reason for optimism…
