Last night, the Sentinel reported that Attorney General Bill Barr has talked of resigning over the President’s interference in DOJ cases and over his tweets.
As word got out, his secretary, Kerri Kupec, quickly tweeted he has no intention of resigning.
We now have confirmation he was indeed considering resigning.
This morning, Fox News reported that “ the Attorney General has in fact told some people close to the White House that he has considered resigning because of the President tweeting about ongoing cases before the DOJ. That’s according to a person familiar with the situation.
However, that individual also confirms what the Justice Department is saying publicly, as its spokeswoman tweeted last night, ‘Addressing Beltway rumors: The Attorney General has no plans to resign’.”
Watch:
SO, HE’S STILL TWEETING
Kupec worded her tweet in such a way as to avoid saying he wasn’t considering it.
It hasn’t stopped the President’s tweeting. He has been retweeting Tom Fitton tweets insisting the President must speak out about DOJ corruption.
And there’s this tweet:

With a series of retweets, Mr. Trump appeared to embrace the suggestion that Attorney General William P. Barr “clean shop” at the department. He also seemed to push the idea of naming a special counsel to investigate what Tom Fitton, the head of the conservative nonprofit Judicial Watch, described as a “seditious conspiracy” at the department and the F.B.I.
What do you think about all this?

I read Sundance the editor of Conservative Treehouse and he continues to do a great deal of research on this subject w/government documents, etc. Independent Sentinel and CT are the only two sites I trust. I think Barr needs to go.
This new revelation happening in the Roger Stone case gives a clear reason Trump should get even more involved. How is it that any Judge would allow someone to pen an op-ed and given leave to submit it to the court for consideration. When a Judge runs amok as this the AG should forthwith dismiss ALL charges effective immediately. I hear impeachment winds blowing.

Yes, and you have a law background.
The MSM tries to cover this as some sort of controversy on Trump’s behavior. The judge’s behavior is outrageous and Barr’s is equally bad by irresponsibly tolerating it. Barr is willing to sacrifice whatever pride and fairness he has left in him.
Please resign Barr.
Barr would never leave over fear that Trump may go after Barr’s precious criminal deep state.
If Barr hasn’t the fortitude to clean house at the DOJ then I suggest Sydney Powell, a long-time Justice attorney who quit in disgust and blew the whistle in her seminal book “License to Lie.” She is now representing Gen.Flynn. She knows where the vermin are hiding and their dirty deeds and will expose, fire and prosecute them without mercy. If not Attorney General then as Special Prosecutor with a broad instruction to clean up the DOJ and the FBI. If you are serious about cleaning up the DOJ and the FBI then retweet this to anybody who might listen.
Barr took the job to protect the DOJ, his clear lack of fortitude was never one of his considerations. He is content to serve as a roadblock and to offer resistance on ABC to Trump.
So Barr did pull a Rosenstein in the initial denial. That just leaves me with absolutely NO confidence in anything Barr now does.
Yes, you saw that. Barr’s TV stunt and this clearly indicate he is not suitable for the position.
