27 Problems With Media’s Latest Failed Attack On Attorney General William Barr




Every paragraph in the nearly 10,000-word New Yorker article has significant problems. Taken together, it is just one long string of innuendos insinuating that William Barr is evil.

Some days it seems as if Attorney General William Barr is one of very few adults in Washington, D.C. The highly respected attorney is serving his second tour at the head of the Department of Justice.

with this administration I would have some hope that Mr Barr will at least be asking forgiveness for altering the course of justice in the ruby ridge aftermath and by aggressively pursuing this field of lies and deceit attempting to rectify his past action with the present.
Mind you Charlie, I for one am not holding my breath on it. At this point Horowitz stinks and their is a odor from Barr's direction but the wind is still following towards him. I shall wait the winds of change.
