Setting the distraction of tRump aside.
There is something about Russia and Republicans that the party wants to remain hidden.
That's my take.
We need to broaden our look at this.

(11,495 posts)I think a lot of republicans took money from Russian sources, even when the first took it they did not know it came from Russia. Now it's to late and trump and putin can hold this over their heads to keep them in line with the trump putin agenda.

(959 posts)don't give a shit about Dump. They despise him too, just for different reasons. But it's no longer just Dump. It's their whole universe in danger. The morons screaming love for Dump are his robot followers, not the rank and file of the Republican party. But the PTB there will fight to the death to keep the mess from swallowing them all. I think Barr was put in place for just this purpose. He's not a Dumpite, but he is Republican, right to the rotten core.

(4,992 posts).....investigate Barr for obstruction of justice. We KNOW what was in his mind....He wrote a memo months ago as an audition for his current job, which was all about the President (any President) being incapable of obstruction. His whole intent of getting the job was to carry out his plan to rescue the Trump presidency, just as he rescued all the Iran/Contra criminals by advising GHWB, as his AG, to pardon everyone ahead of time. He's a partisan hack, interjecting partisanship into the Special Council process, which is specifically designed to avoid partisan influence.
