William Barr to defend his handling of Mueller report in face of Senate furor

Barr is likely to face a barrage of questions from Democrats at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing over a letter revealed Tuesday night in which Mueller wrote to object to his characterization of the special counsel investigation in his four-page summary.According to his prepared opening statement released late Tuesday, Barr will defend his characterization of Mueller's investigation.

"There doesn't appear to be similar drama over whether Barr appears Wednesday, but that doesn't mean the questions won't be just as contentious from Senate Democrats on the Judiciary panel, including three -- Sens. Klobuchar, Kamala Harris of California and Cory Booker of New Jersey -- who are running for President.

...to quote James Cagney: I smell a 🐀..!

ha ha..what a joke cnn is

The bloody Congressional components of your vast left wing conspiracy to overthrow the President & the Constitution in panic mode you mean.

If anybody gets their PP seriously whacked out of all of this, I hope, more than anyone else, Barr gets it.

Questions: Why did Mueller find it necessary to write a letter (go on record!) concerning your summary How much contact did you have with the SUBJECT of the investigation (Trump) regarding your supposedly impartial decision not to prosecute him 10 instances of obstruction

Do the cnn followers not realize that Barr is Muellers boss? Mueller wrote the report for Barr’s review. Barr does not legally even have to publicly report the findings of probe. an effort of transparency and he’s still publicly blasted. 🙄The left wants blood at any cost.

Barr you Tit!... You actually submitted an application to bend over for the President and take it up the Rear for Trump!...Bright Future!...The History Books will have you down as the AG who took it up the Gazoo for Trump!Under Oath!

This is corruption at its highest, did he think he wouldn't get caught out, now he has joined with the corruption in chief......what a mess

Barr, Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, Devos, Mnuchin, Carson, Price, Shulkin, Pruitt, Tillerson and more shouldn’t have been confirmed. But, as long as the GOP has control of the Senate. Trump can do whatever he wants, even shoot someone in the middle of 5th Ave in NYC, GOP will do nothing.

Can’t wait to see Barr make a fool out of Kamala and Maxie, and CNN’s Fake indignation

Guy doesn’t lie doesn’t have anything to hide ca t be said for the left side of the aisle

Phil Mudd an absolute idiot with a couple English degrees has him in prison already. Even Chris Cuomo inferred he’s devoid of intelligence

So now I know who the Rocketman is trump was talking about. I think he’s a better pianoplayer then an AG

I can’t see Justice be done if Barr face popular GOP in the senate, he should be investigated by proper arms of congress so Justice will prevail

Let them go down this road with this man... it won’t work out well for the dams... guarantee it!!!

CNN was taken down in Venezuela today 😂

Barr will layth the smack down.

Life is a box of thistles, and I've been dealt all the really tough and prickly ones

He will stall and not give a straight answer

How do you defend ignorance?

Specifically House fuhrer

Willam Barrel!

Unfortunately, he's facing the spineless Republican-led Senate tomorrow with Lindsey Graham running the show... probably gonna be a while lotta nothing tomorrow. 🙄

Looney Left please pay attention.

Democrats continue to expose and embarrass themselves.... It's cringe worthy

Senate 'furor?' How's those ratings looking?

He lied to Congress.. he’s screwed tomorrow.

What's to defend? Mueller said, and I quote: 'nothing in the attorney general's March 24 letter was inaccurate or misleading' I don't think Barr loses a wink of sleep just because CNN has TDS.

Hard to defend a bold-faced lie.

Which face will Barr use?

I hope Mueller shows up too

He looks truly terrified of the upcoming 'furor'.

Trump’s 3 legal stooges: Barr, Rudy and Cohen. Add Trump, with his endless boasting about knowing what’s legal and what isn’t, and you’d have the 5 stooges.

impeach him -- he's been a trump plant since day one

He shouldn’t have put himself in this position

Democrats blast Attorney General William Barr, calling him Trump’s ‘paid federal public defender’In scheduled back-to-back congressional hearings this week, Democrats will have their first chance to grill Barr since he stood at the Justice Department podium and repeatedly declared that Mueller had found no “collusion” between Trump and Russia. Barr has not withdrawn, but aides said he might not attend because the panel’s leadership wants to allow committee lawyers to do some of the questioning, rather than just lawmakers. Barr and Rosenstein lost all credibility after putting that 4 page memo out. Many people say...Barr is reviewing the GOP handbook 'How To Lie To Congress For Dummies' before showing up.
