A former Justice Department official says Attorney General William Barr 'twisted' her words to justify the decision to drop the criminal case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

Washington A former Justice Department official says Attorney General William Barr"twisted" her words to justify the decision to drop the criminal case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

Mary B. McCord, former acting assistant attorney general for national security, wrote in a New York Times op-ed Sunday that Barr cherry-picked from her 2017 testimony to special counsel Robert Mueller, which the DOJ cited more than 25 times in the motion to dismiss Flynn's case. She said her testimony is"no support for Mr. Barr's dismissal of the Flynn case.""It does not suggest that the F.B.I. had no counterintelligence reason for investigating Mr. Flynn," she wrote.

Sure, the spiners spining!

WH is 'twisted', hideous criminal enterprise that appears to be reaping dubious rewards of LYING/DISSEMBLING about virus data and all else under the Sun. Dirty, ugly Karmic burden that is piling-up by the second.

And in newly released transcripts even CNN’s expert JAMES Clapper, testified there was “no evidence of Trump or any of his admin, involved in Russian Collusion.“ Maybe CNN should ask Clapper and Schiff about their three years of lying about this! But they won’t.

Of course he did. B/C Barr is trumps little hooker and does whatever baby trump tells him to do so they can all remain popular and in the media like a reality show. Watch as deranged donny lets all his criminal friends walk away. Shells of men. All of em.

Ok. Tell us what they were.

If the court supports the dismissal they’re part of the problem.

The left and their propaganda news networks will twist the truth till it fits. The deep state won't be able to provide cover for BarackObama & JoeBiden much longer! ObamaGate BiggestScandalEver

Gen Flynn's innocence is not determined by this woman's words. CNN is dead.

Barr needs to be removed from the head of the DOJ. He is Trump's kiss ass, and will twist the rule of the law to protect Trump's ass. He needs to go.

Is anyone surprised?

Let's talk about Obamagate

Good attempt to distract from obamagate guys you’re doing a great effort like always, sucks you never get results!🤣

If you want to see a real example of 'twisted', so see NBC and chucktodd

officials of government of China suppressed and maimed people who told the truth of COVID-19,so made COVID-19 break out in China and spread to world

CNN FAKE NEWS

BarrBeast When men like Barr with beastly instincts are allowed to serve in Justice Department, Injustice become Law of the Land. Just like he 'twisted' Mueller's Report in seducing Americans to believe 'Russia did not interfere in US elections' Be Safe

Oh you mean the anti trump Obama hold over that refused to follow presidential orders designed to prevent terrorism, yeah I'm sure she would say that. ObaMAGAte

Welcome to Barr and Trump's world.

just how much is Barr willing to pay frump for the AG title - and it is a title in name only because clearly the USA does not have a real AG

You mean to say 'to seek the dismissal of the criminal information' against Michael Flynn. The case has not been 'dropped.' That is a decision only the judge can make.

Cope News Network

It’s all on him, don’t worry!

obamagate what did cnn know?

Fbi twisted all the rules with the president at the helm ObaMAGAte

'Twisted' is a good word for Barr, yes.

You know with your viewers down and the fact that MSM in general is in the hot seat... I would tread lightly on bias reporting. Wait... who am I kidding... is trash and only reports trash... China propaganda. MY tv will never be on and cnn has not been in our house for years

The reactions by GOP-voters show that there is a desperate attempt to look at the past to distract from the lousy performance of the current administration. US has more Corona-deaths than any other country in the world. Instead of taking full responsibility it is blaming others.

McCord worked with RepAdamSchiff on the Whistleblower hoax

president and administration are a gang of criminal liars- why should be Barr be an exception?

Trump is a terrible president and leading the country down. He is a clown. But Barr and Moscow Mitch should be just as big a worry. Democracy & justice are being wiped out. MondayMotivaton MondayMorning

As Obama prepares to join campaign, Trump moves to discredit Russia probe started under his watchA newly released memo shows that Robert Mueller was given wide latitude to investigate Michael Flynn, whose prosecution the Justice Department is attempting to drop. And without a hint of irony Agolf FatFuk Shitler is attacking the Russia investigation with the help of the Russians and their puppets like FDRLST Things are not going to turn out how Obama, Biden, Pelosi, and the DNC think it will. You should be propping up a better candidate instead of pushing forward with a rapist. Biden will never be President. Change the course before it's too late. Its already been discredited

Watergate prosecutor: Barr dropping Flynn case ‘a clear coverup’Donald Trump critics are slamming the fact that the Michael Flynn case is being dropped by Attorney General William Barr’s Department of Justice, a move that former Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks calls ‘a clear coverup’ that she believes is likely to help the president. Michael Isikoff, Chief investigative correspondent for Yahoo News, also joins Joy Reid to discuss. JillWineBanks His defense: they were talking nicely to me when I lied, so I thought it didn't count. JFC. JillWineBanks Sullivan could do something about it if he has the guts. He has a lifetime appointment. At least call on Barr personally to defend DOJ actions. SadieTNResist JillWineBanks Please act. I will support action however I can. We need a leader
