Democratic Party's pathological lying about Barr

So, IF, as YOU say, they are lying, what crime(s) have they committed?

The lie is not a crime. Pursuing removing him to stop his investigations is obstruction of justice.

Demanding he release grand jury testimony and evidence - and that he release national security secrets - or they will hold him in contempt is the crime of extortion and conspiracy to divulge grand jury materials and national security secrets.

If I tell you "go rob the bank or I'm going report you to the police for drugs" I would have committed 2 crimes - extortion/blackmail and conspiracy to commit bank robbery - crimes most of the Democrats on the committee now HAVE committed.

Imagine if Barr does start using his power even just half as corruptly as the Democrats in Congress are. He could have any of them secretly indicted by a federal grand jury before the Democrat know what hit him/her.

Obviously he should go after AOC in regards to her campaign funds. He could go after ANYONE who has threatened him with impeachment and contempt after he stated he is actively conducting investigations. He should have DOJ staffers interview every one of them laying them up for perjury traps. Subpoena all their business and bank records, seize their computers too. Certainly the Democratic party shouldn't object since they all claim that is just typical practices.
 
What "reports?" The question didn't ask about a "summary," it asked about unnamed reports.

It did not ask about "Mueller," it asked about "members of the team." Which members?

WHAT "REPORTS?" WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO ANSWER? If you can not answer, then you also have NO CLUE what the question is asking.

Trying to cover up the lies about Barr?

Barr is a lawyer and he is precise. Crist's question was idiotic. "What do you know unnamed people in unnamed reports were thinking?" That's as stupid as it gets. If Barr had said he knew what that meant with certainty, THAT is what would have been a lie.

So, to be truthful, he said he doesn't know what that means, but then tried to speculate what Crist extra-stupidly worded question meant.

Did Crist ask "What did Mueller mean when he wrote in his letter..." NO. But even that is an ignorant question. Only Mueller himself can say what he meant.

ANY lawyer understands NO ONE can testify to what is in another person's head. That is a "sustained" objection by the judge any time a "what is the other person thinking" question is asked.

Sorry but I don’t understand. My impression was that Barr answered in the negative about whether there were concerns, and he skillfully evaded the intent of the question. Mueller had concerns.
 
These people are accusing Democrats of lying, by claiming that Mueller is not a member of the Mueller team. Which would be like saying trump is not part of the trump administration. Such liars.
 
Mueller had concerns because he didn't take the opportunity to read Barr's initial release. No, instead Mueller chose to leak how his team was unhappy with Barr's initial "summary", knowing it would cause a media kerfuffle which he could then later also bitch about.
So because Mueller refused to read Barr's initial offering, even though Barr called and gave him the opportunity, here we are.

Your evidence Mueller didn't read the release?

Your post is... there's no nice way to describe the idiocy.

You don't know what the word "generally" means, do you.

"People of the Trump administration generally believe..." does not inherently mean "Trump himself specifically believes." Is that too complicated for you to understand?
