Hmmm...looks like another one may soon bite the dust.

Barr blasts Trump'''s tweets on Stone case: '''Impossible for me to do my job''': ABC News Exclusive - ABC News

In an exclusive interview, Attorney General Bill Barr told ABC News on Thursday that President Donald Trump "has never asked me to do anything in a criminal case” but should stop tweeting about the Justice Department because his tweets “make it impossible for me to do my job.”

Barr’s comments are a rare break with a president who the attorney general has aligned himself with and fiercely defended.

...

“I’m not going to be bullied or influenced by anybody ... whether it’s Congress, a newspaper editorial board, or the president,” Barr said. “I’m gonna do what I think is right. And you know … I cannot do my job here at the department with a constant background commentary that undercuts me.”
Day-um! I didn't think he had it in him.


Any guesses on what Barr's nickname will be?
 
My guess is Barr is feeling the heat.

Barr has brought shame to the Department of Justice by misleading the public and letting the president's relationship with a criminal defendant impact the Department's treatment of that defendant.

The problem isn't just Trump's tweets. Barr is part of the problem.

Yeah right...Trump stop tweeting? That's about as likely as Putin deciding not to be a raging dick.

Nope. **** Barr. He's lying.

I guarantee you this is a statement that is only meant to pretend some kind of independance. He has no problem bending over for Trump, he just wants to be as private as possible about it.
 
What a complete and total pile of crap.

"Trump's tweets make it impossible for me to do my job". PLEASE BILL. If you were an actual AG doing the people's business instead of Trump's mob lawyer you would be worried about Trump's tweets as a function of the actual job. All you are really saying Bill is "please DonDon, stop tweeting, you are blowing our cover". What a load of crap.

Barr is some ways is worse than Trump. Trump barely makes an effort to cover his larceny. Barr not only wipes Trump's butt hole for him, he tries to play whack-a-mole with Trump's arrogant, autocratic public thuggery in an effort to keep those Trumpian moles from running rampant. DISGUSTING!!!
 
I thought Barr was protecting Trump? Now this? Make up your silly minds. :peace

He is....this is Barr telling Trump to "shut the bleep up. You are blowing our cover DonDon. We are supposed to be running this game at the American people DonDon remember."

So...Trump tweets his opinion...the media spins all kinds of nonsense out of it...this makes Barr's job harder.

Who's at fault here? Trump? For only expressing his opinion? Or the media for their unsupported spin?

I know...I know...Trump should just shut the hell up and let the media have their way without taking responsibility for their actions. Right?

He needs Trump to keep quiet about it. Try and keep a veneer of respectability, lol.

Poor Trump. The guy just can't buy a break.

However, when you're using the government to bailout your criminal friends and to investigate your enemies, it's probably best to do it quietly.
 
Next we will see a news piece that Barr has had a flock of carrier pigeons delivered to his office and to the WH desperately hoping Trump will use them in the future instead of using twitter. Of course that will fail as DonDon is not happy unless he can squat over the country and squirt right in its face.

The only people happy about DonDon's use of twitter are DonDon and his ghoulish base. EVERYBODY else trying to protect him and their own butt ends would be deliriously happy if DonDon would stop using twitter. Sorry sycophants. Tweeting his depravity is yet another of DonDon's malignant pathologies.

My point sailed right over your head. (I think you deliberately ducked.)

And then you spout the same nonsense I was talking about...you know, the media unsupported spin.

Can you at least try to be more dishonest?

Gestapo Barr covered up the Mueller report and Ukraine. Do you remember when he covered up Iran-Contra?
 
Wait, hold on! I thought you guys claimed Barr was Trump's lackey and now you're saying Barr "BLASTED HIM"? Oh, ABC, never mind, just fake news. :lamo

Bloated Barr looks a lot like Denny Hastert.
 
Tweety probably told him to say that.

Blasted him for blabbing their plans.

I agree entirely. This is nothing more than a smokescreen because Barr has been getting a ton of feedback from angry conservative judges and attorneys. Bill Barr is 100% in Trump's pocket and a co-conspirator.

It's more about knowing when to opine on a judicial issue; knowing full well the circus which will follow. This is similar to the blowback that came when Obama opined on the Martin/Zimmerman case and it became a circus. In that particular case it went sideways with all sorts of commentary about Obama making it about race etc. This case is about the president opining on the sentencing of a friend, which would probably be best left alone if he doesn't want to appear like this will be handled like something right out of the cronyism textbook.

Exactly. What Barr didn’t say about Stone’s sentencing speaks volumes.
