Attorney General William P. Barr on Friday night abruptly tried to fire the top federal prosecutor in Manhattan, Geoffrey S. Berman, who has investigated several of President Trump’s closest associates, but Mr. Berman said he would not leave.Trump wants to appoint a corporate tool who is neither a prosecutor nor a litigator, just a guy who will take orders from Trump as to whom to prosecute and whom to let alone. Doesn't matter if there's probably cause to investigate or not. Donnie the Bunker Boy's cronies could be caught red-handed and let go, while Trump will use the prosecutors to harass those he dislikes.
...
Mr. Berman, the United States attorney for the Southern District of New York, and his team have been at the forefront of corruption inquiries in Mr. Trump’s inner circle. They successfully prosecuted the president’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, who went to prison, and have been investigating Mr. Trump’s current personal lawyer, Rudolph W. Giuliani.
Barr's complicity in this shows that Barr is an utter tool, lacking in ethics, morals and a sense of justice. Even Smirky the Racist Elf had more integrity.
But Butt-Boy Barr has no integrity. He has all the toughness of overcooked angel-hair pasta.
Yeah but....yeah but ummm....HE'S OWNING THE LIBS!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteInteresting that Barr is trying to appoint an acting attorney for six months while the new guy is being confirmed, that will get them past the election. Perhaps there are things they don't want publicized before then like last time.
