(7,528 posts)is the people on the right who are like "What'd Barr do wrong? He just agreed with Mueller!" Which is exactly why Barr dropped his letter and then delayed the report enough so people who wanted exoneration would move along.
They fundamentally refuse to understand the difference between "No conclusion" and "Exoneration" and that Barr based his exoneration on Mueller's "I can't indict, here's the evidence" despite Barr being the main person who told him he can't indict.
It's like people who think "hung jury" indicates "innocent".

(10,187 posts)Barr isn't supposed to be Donald Trump's personal attorney, he's supposed to uphold the laws of the U.S., even if it means prosecuting the president when necessary. Trump couldn't have found a more devoted and aggressive legal advocate and defender than Bill Barr (well, maybe Rudy Giuliani or Kellyanne Conway).
I've never witnessed an Attorney General so slavishly devoted to defending the president who appointed him. His business card should read: "William Barr: Because Trump's balls won't lick themselves."

(8,020 posts)its not a choice, we must hold everyone accountable for criminal activities with every tool we have available under the law. It won't be easy, it may take years & probably will, the punishment may be a slap on the wrist but if we don't at least try we might as well flush the constitution down the toilet.
