The White House commented today in response to Attorney General Bill Barr’s criticism during an interview with ABC News.
The AG said the President never asked the Department to do anything but his tweets are making his job impossible.
Barr said, “Public statements and tweets made about the department, about our people in the department, our men and women, about cases pending in the department, and about judges before whom we have cases, make it impossible for me to do my job and to assure the courts and the prosecutors in the department that we’re doing our work with integrity.”
“I am responsible for everything that happens in the department. But the thing I have the most responsibility for are the issues that are brought to me for decision and I will make those decisions based on what I think is the right thing to do, and I’m not going to be bullied, or influenced by anybody and I said at the whether it’s Congress, newspaper editorial boards, or the president,” Barr continued. “I’m going to do what I think is right and I cannot do my job here at the department with constant background commentary that undercuts me.”
The comments came after President Trump tweeted several times about the Roger Stone case.
The White House responded calmly.
Press Secretary Stephanie Grisholm said, “The President wasn’t bothered by the comments..he has the right, just like any American citizen, to publicly offer his opinions. #POTUS uses social media very effectively to fight for the American people…(and) has full faith and confidence in AG Barr.”

On Wednesday, President Trump even congratulated AG Barr for handling the situation.

Even the blind Village Idiot of ANY Village can clearly see that Barr is Deep State. As deeply entrenched as as the Clintons, Obama and the Podestas, etc etc. NOT one of the perpetrators of any of these heinous acts will ever be brought to justice as long as Deep State Barr is the AG. Rosenstein signed off on 3 of the Illegal FISA Warrants, Barr knew this, and at his retirement he almost had everyone believing that Rosenstein walked on water. And Rosenstein is about as Deep State as there is. BARR IS DIRTY.
Somebody better do something…the “tail (dems) appear to be wagging the dog”. First Mueller’s inquiry(?)/inquisition based on fraudulent information – supplied by Obama when he instigated Russiagate based on a “hack” that never was…the fact that the transfer speed of the “data” precluded any such happening, which was conveniently ignored by the MSM – it was a download…to deflect the expected WikiLeaks, which incidentally have NEVER been debunked/repudiated, “dump” on Hillary and then the charade by the gavel wielding politburo emcee that was called an “impeachment”. These continuous baseless attacks on the President were to serve two purposes, first, to play to the MSM who did an admirable job of presenting one biased side to their low information voter audience, second, to deflect attention from the universal corruption that apparently was well entrenched in government contracts and foreign aid…they had quite a bit of success in the former but in the latter, Burisma, the “tip of the iceberg”, was exposed…
If Barr can’t take the heat then Pam Bondi Is ready to handle the job. Perhaps, Sydney Powell could clean out the trash at the DOJ.She certainly has exposed it.
Barr needs to go. He is worthless. Conservative Treehouse has quite a discussion going on;)
I disagree with the preceding comments in some ways. First I don’t think Barr is deep state. I haven’t seen any proof of that, even with Rosenstein. But these low life democrats will demean, denigrate and attack anyone affiliated with Trump. It’s the politics of personal destruction. However, I do think DJT should cut back and think a little on some of these sophomoric tweets, they make him look immature.
