If Barr is truly committed to equal justice under the law, he will have done a great service to the nation--and will have a big target on his back.

Barr and Durham are slowly but surely tightening the noose on the coup plotters. Media and Democrats in full meltdown, as explained by Julie Kelly at American Greatness.

Basically, these last gasp stories or HEADLINES that the left can wrap around are dissipating and almost gone, their 3 year #FakeNews cycle is in trouble. What lies ahead is a Trump 2.0 and Democrat heads rolling should Barr unleash the goods during the 2020 election cycle. Credo, the ending to the article linked in the tweet above... "The quickening, finally, is here.
Further, Barr confirmed his department has received information from Rudy Guiliani, acting as the president’s personal lawyer, related to political corruption in Ukraine, including 2016 election interference and the Bidens’ personal dealings in that rogue country. If Guiliani has the goods, the entire pretext for the Democrats’ impeachment vote will implode right as the 2020 campaign season gets underway.
So, in that regard, the Left’s convulsions are warranted, just not for the reasons they now are giving the public. They, like so many who’ve followed this scandal and waited for justice, get the sense something big is about to happen. Let’s hope their instincts, for once, are right." |

What lies ahead is a Trump 2.0 and Democrat heads rolling should Barr unleash the goods during the 2020 election cycle. Exactly. Almost all of this corruption has been known since 2017; the reason why it wasn't dealt with in any official way before now was due to the phony (in substance), but politically charged, Swords of Damocles hanging over Trump's head in the (1) Mueller investigation--which then pivoted into the (2) Ukrainian impeachment fraud. In both case, the President had essentially been framed for conduct that his opponents were actually guilty of. The purposes, then, of these two "investigations" were three-fold: - Deflect from exposing the real crimes committed by the intelligence agencies in the Obama administration
- Hobble the Trump administration by placing a perpetual cloud over all his actions
- Prevent him from exposing said crimes (see above) through the threat that to do so would constitute Trump "obstructing justice" by interfering into the investigations of himself (for things he didn't do).
If you think about it, there's a real evil genius behind it all. For three years the media and the Democrats have managed to convince a large segment of the population that the very act of an innocent man (Trump) protesting his innocence and threatening to expose the real criminals is evidence of guilt itself.
Well, the game is up now. They managed to string this farce along for most of Trump's first term, but the fact is they never held the winning cards and the President has finally called their bluff.

Now that Bill Barr has publicly criticized Trump for his tweets, will he now be considered disloyal?

I think his days are numbered. Like a 5-year-old, Trump won't tolerate anyone that criticizes him.

I think the way Barr did it will be okay with Trump. Barr didn't criticize Trump or tell him to stop tweeting, he just said that the tweeting makes it impossible for him to do his job. That is nothing more than feedback to the boss and allows the boss to still control what he does, just now fully aware of the repercussions of said actions.
Also, I have to believe that Barr told Trump the same thing face to face. Again, not to make Trump stop tweeting, just to get it out in the open of what effect the tweets have on Barrs ability to do what the president wants.
Or, I may be wrong and Barr is executed on Monday...

Now that Bill Barr has publicly criticized Trump for his tweets, will he now be considered disloyal? No, not at all. Barr made a good point that I agree with--some of Trump's tweeting on these sensitive cases that are still pending in the court system is giving the appearance of political interference, when in fact there is none. Barr seems pretty independent, and Trump knows that he is one of his best allies in working to root out the corruption that took root in the Obama administration. The White House has also publicly stated that the President "has no problems" with what Barr said. |

Agreed, Trump doesn’t like criticism...
But accomplishment is more important to him and as long as Barr does the job, I think he will have a job.

Or, I may be wrong and Barr is executed on Monday... Difference is, he did it publicly. It violated the golden rule of leadership... Praise in public, criticize in private. Either this was intended to be some kind of message to others that he's an independent thinker, or he's grown frustrated and is about to head out the door. |

RSM, Credo and Dave, the problem is that you're looking at this like adults. Instead, try to picture it from Trump's point of view.

Me thinks that DOJ is gonna go light here on a couple instances because they know they have some heavy things coming out soon...., showing some balance so to not be white washed by the media/public perception as one sided ....

In point of fact, I agree with Barr and suggest Trump should not be tweeting about open, ongoing cases.
The item about which Barr complained, the sentencing of Roger Stone, Barr was already talking to his people about lightening the sentence, so Trump tweeting about lightening the sentence puts Barr in a position of doing the right thing but appearing to cave to Trump... or NOT doing what he be,Ive es is right but appear to be independent of the president.
Now, personally, I’m n record here and elsewhere suggesting we’d all be better off of someone would just close down his twitter account... but I’m pretty sure that won’t happen.
