In 1989, AG Barr refused to release a DOJ legal opinion, choosing to release a summary report instead. It was later revealed that Barr mischaracterized parts of the opinion in that summary.

So Barr is a professional mischaracterizer

Is Barr really the top Justice guy US has? And he still does not see justice & truth are related, intimately?

We knew Barr was a Trump shill when he was appointed. There HAS to be a way to make Congress return to representing We The People. If not, we need to add it to the Constitution or stop calling our political system a democracy. If YOUR vote didn't count, you shd be furious!

In 1969 he drank beer.

He is Trump’s new tool

EmmaPeele3 What can we expect when the AG is hand-picked by Rump?

More proof that this AG is a liar and most unworthy of even being a part of the DOJ.

I’m shocked...Not!

Another crook

None of this was brought up during his confirmation! A little late!

The later revelation was a partisan opinion. Which is business as usual in politics.

He lied. No doubt about this. Barr should have been removed from government period, never to return. Lawyers, Guns, Money, Cocaine. He lied about all of this. The man has lost all credibility in this country, and believed in by, DJT and his morons.

Obama's Wingman, AG Holder pledged his allegiance to Obama. Holder ignored subpoenas on Fast & Furious when Senate was going to hold him in contempt, Obama obstructed by allowing Holder to claim ececutive privilege.

Riveting reporting. Not not not!!!

Why the hell does he still have a license?

It’s obvious Barr is Brothel Don’s Stooge!

He's corrupt just like DT. People like T. use their money and contacts to find out who is going to do their bidding.

Believe who he is, Barr has been consistent both by words and deeds! Bias behavior does not allow him to perform his job!

Roy Cohen lives on

Same shit different scandal

Well there ya go! Needs to go!!

UROCKlive1 Guess his career was never that ‘distinguished’ after all 😏

UROCKlive1 Disbar and arrest Barr!

I think he thought it would be that easy again this time. Penalty for not realizing how much & how fast the world has changed.

AG low Barr should be dis-Barr(ed) for misleading and lying to the American people.

LIED!! Why are you using the word “mischaracterized”?

Barr is working on behalf of republicans not just Donald Trump. I think the republicans colluded with Russia or took foreign money.Trump didn’t know Barr. Lindsey and Mitch brought Barr on to coverup how the republicans stole the election from Hillary.

1989?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

{{{{{{{{YAWN}}}}}}}

Another tool & puppet!

That's 30 years ago. Maybe MSNBC can go back even further. They may find something in Barr's high school year book.

Guilty as sin.

unlewis Man has an amazing ability to set his own personal BARR low 😂🤣

Stop with garbage Democratic MSNBC..... America is sick of it !

Some things never change.

Ummm... he was hired by Trump after actively seeking the position. That is all you need to know about this man’s ethics and morals.

KathrynECramer I'm shocked. Shocked!

loveletters2007 History repeats itself!

Barr must resign, he has no business working in TheJusticeDept serve only a man who’s known a fraud all his life. Barr is corrupt & dangerous to Amer. Justice. SpeakerPelosi HouseDemocrats HouseGOP USSenate washingtonpost RepJerryNadler HouseJudiciary maddow ewarren

Barr has form for deception of what the information actually is.

We need to get rid of this low life!

He is not an honest person

What one? Can’t name it! Thought so fake news.

daschmidt883 Fool us twice - shame on us.

Deja vu.

He lied to us! Bill Barr lied to us. That is why Democrats need to hold public hearings calling on Mueller, McGahn, etc so we can hear from them because this guy is as corrupt as they come! This administration is the most corrupt ever and they lie to the American people!

Barr was tailor-made for realDonaldTrump .... Unfotunately, not for America!!

daschmidt883 History repeats!

So he is a serial con artist

1989

That appears to be his trademark.

Yet everybody acting shocked he did it again. 😲 Child, please

Obviously Barr does not believe in or follow constitutional law. He believes in Authoritarian Government ruled by one man. He has lied to support such Authoritarian actions before and is now doing so again. Such actions are a blight on the rule of law and a betrayal of the DOJ.

Time & Gravy’s from The Gravy Train has not faired your appearance. Probably the corruption in your life played a part too. You used to be a distinguished looking man. Now you look like Fred Flintstine in a cheap suit.

I’ve left the building. Am saving up my frustrations to “vent” in Nov. 2020 and trick myself into not thinking Russian bots will have already cancelled out my vote and that I still live in the land of the free and the home of the brave. There was once such a time. Good luck.

There is grave difference between mischaracterized and international..

Think he would’ve gotten new glasses by now.

Just like sarahkendzior and Newsweek detailed Trump’s dealings with Russia long before msm deemed the story worthy, the facts about Barr are trickling, as well. None of what he has done is a surprise, as is Mueller’s refusal to make logical pronouncements

We sat BACK and listened to GOP, Dems, Media and former legal associates tell us what a straight shooter Barr was and it was BOUGHT hook, line and sinker because people didn’t do their own homework. You know, you get what you deserve. A nation of fools.

Ms13nbc is desperate.

This is why you aren’t trusted. Barr didn’t “mischaracterize” anything.

Si Barr lies all the time like Trump. Remove them both from office immediately for obstruction

Deja vu...

Age Barr is a kiss ass joke he don't want to be attacked by trump and is so afraid to end up like the general

He is a political scumbag from long ago.

Thats EXACTLY why trump accepted his ‘application ‘

Annnnndddd...... he did it again. Gee. What a surprise.

Insanity runs very deep in your network!!

Barr had experience in redacting important information; now we know why trump took his time looking for an AG and Barr’s job application. 🤬🤬🤬

Msnbc is the worst. So full of hate.

This raises significant concerns. How can he be trusted? He needs to recuse himself now.

Isn’t that unlawful?

beat me to the punch! I was just about to share this too bc I remember it like it was yesterday. I was 4 or 5 years old at the time, I just moved into the house I would grow up in, and I kept thinking 'this Barr guy seems corrupt and possibly connected to Russia'

See how AG Barr makes his coffee in the morning next on MSNBC. Tease. He uses substitute sweetener.

That's quite a ways to go back to find something that plays into your narrative. Maybe you should endeavour to be fair instead

Ralphie from A Christmas Story grew up to be a real dick.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Are you listening America?

Not mischaracterized but COVERED IT UP! BarrCoverUp BarrLied period! Barr should be Disbarred and impeached!

Barr lied. To deceive. Again.

Have you unhinged degenerates apologized to Mueller yet for stalking and harassing him outside of his church?

as far as I can get this, he is a rental Atty. General

1989? That’s the best you’ve got?

In competition with your buddies at CNN. Dont need anyone to tell you guys how tacky u were today at Easter service with Mueller fiasco, but you guys carry on. Not a spoon big enough to vomit up that nastiness.

Barr is a LIAR. And now he and TheJusticeDept are leading a CoverUP, trying to protect a president from the RuleOfLaw. IF it were possible for someone to be worse than Trump, Barr has crossed that threshold with this CoverUP. He is now Complicit.

MSNBC needs to turn it's hatred and seething anger towards those who DUPED them into believing the Trump/Russia collusion hoax. Do your jobs and dig into it. If your producers will allow it.🤔

Analysis | The 1989 precedent that raises questions about how Barr will redact the Mueller reportAnalysis: The 1989 precedent that raises questions about how Barr will redact the Mueller report No matter what is redacted, nor the reason (laws, on going investigations, national security) the left wont be satisfied & will be unwilling to leave the fishing trip until they catch the fish they want. Ends should not be the justification of the means! Steep slippery slope! SomePeopleDidSomething in Paris Barr just briefed the White House on the report as he is deciding what to redact. That is code for he asked the White House what they want redacted. Before he briefed the WH he should of completed his decisions and prepared a report for Congress. That way there’s no Conflicts.

Barr heads to the Senate after suggesting report releaseFollowing Tuesday's hearing, AG William Barr is set to testify before the Senate Appropriations Committee on Wednesday morning. On Tuesday, Barr said the Justice Department will release a version of special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia report with redactions 'within a week.' what is the point of listening to a plethora of his jibber jabber when he really has nothing to say. he is not going to tell us anything new and will only exacerbate the frustration of the committee and those of us who might be watching tv. he is a trump guy and we know it. Can the AG possibly get any more unimpressive? He's lost all credibility by becoming yet another Trump lapdog. Stooping to the level (low) of the 'president' is not a good look, for him or us.

Barr returns to Capitol Hill, where he'll face more Mueller questionsAttorney General William Barr is back on Capitol Hill Wednesday to testify at another hearing on the Justice Department budget that's sure to be filled with more swirling questions over special counsel Robert Mueller's report. Trump is a Russian asset. I love when a budget meeting gets dragged into Russiagate...this is why we don't get things done in Capitol Hill. I just want to smack that smug look off his face.
