Kimberley Strassel just drove a DAGGER into the Dems’ desperation to pretend there is still SOME WAY Trump will be impeached after all of this. It won’t be collusion but they’ll find SOMETHING because there has to be something and Barr is covering for Trump …
Yadda yadda yadda.
These same yahoos had no issue when Eric Holder vowed to investigate himself or Lynch met with Bill Clinton on the tarmac but SURE, Barr is covering for Trump. *eye roll*
Check out this thread.
1) couple thots on Barr's press conference:
–The collusion question, as if this weren't already clear from Barr's letter, is shut. There was no "knowing assistance" from "any" American. Clear.— Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) April 18, 2019
Clear.
Crystal.
2) –on obstruction, Barr went out of is way to say he didn't agree with Mueller's "legal theories." Interesting. Mueller always had conflict investigating the obstruction question, since it dealt with firing FBI head–and Mueller an FBI loyalist. How far out there did he go?

3)–left is losing its wig that Barr addressed presidential intent and state of mind (frustration). But of course intent matters (there was no crime to cover up), and Barr says was Mueller who brought up Trump's frustration and sincere belief this was undermining presidency.

True story.
4) Barr seemed to be reminding people of obvious: there is a difference between words/actions. Keep that in mind while reading entire "obstruction" section. Did president ever "do" anything to impede investigation? It wud seem no.

Nope.
Nada.
No.
Zilch.
5) Good on Barr for reminding press of some basic points. We don't convene grand juries/collect information to just throw it at public. And no it isn't "Mueller's" report; Mueller wrote it for AG and AG is final word.

Final word.
Deal with it.
*thoughts!

She’s so rad.
I liked the eye-roll during the one question. I can’t even remember the question because that had me ROFLMBO!

Yeah, Barr was DONE with their BS.
Like the rest of us.
