Think Barr News Today

my brother need not be idealized or enlarged in death beyond what he was in life. to be remembered simply as a good and decent man who saw wrong and tried to right it, saw suffering and tried to heal it, saw war and tried to stop it. those of us who loved him and will take him to his rest today pray that what he was to us and what he wished for others will some day come to pass for all the world. as he said many times in many parts of this nation to those he touched and who sought to t...

Finished. we are seeing primitive attacks on horowitz and i know horwitz, hes a career civil servant and the kind of person that we should be proud of working for the justice department. his work number both parties without complaint and i find it incredible that people are attacking them already for a report that they havent even seen yet. i think they will get through this but i think it will be a very fair report. i dont think barr is putting any kind of pressure on horowitz, i dont think tha...

From -- 8:00 to 5:00 or 9:00 to 5:00, were working then, as well. we like to go at night, but im sure it will be worked out. >> it sounds youre not expe expectiexpec expecting as much here as your chairman is. >> im not. and i hope hes right and he may have good reason to believe that were going to get much more important information, but two reasons, i think the grand jury testimony is the best. you take your bread and butter to the grand jury. if the 302s, which are fbi investigative notes, if...

Dont know what level were in. barr is by all accounts respected. so i think hell go up to that line. the president we know has always leaned on the line of legality, he crossed it. he did casinos in atlantic city so i think the "good fellas" reference is apt. the fact you would have someone leave a voicemail is insane. when jonathan listed the names theres one you didnt list, that im curious about is sean spicer. every day he came in front of the american public and lied to us. were finding out ...

Sounds like witness tampering. thats the power of evidence. the power of hearing something as opposed to reading it in a dry document. thats why its significant that the house is going to get some of these underlying documents. i agree with harry, you have to have a warm body in the seat for it to come alive. you need a way for the pieces of evidence to come to life. but having those underlying documents, some of which im certain are going to be shocking, thats big. >> i want your thoughts, chri...

Its a difficult question because they probably would have gone to court to get a judge to force dowd to talk. even if dowd talked its unsure how reliable his statements would have been. but was and still is a central question of the house investigation. did the president try to abuse his power to protect himself and maybe these underlying documents will shed more light on it. >> can you jump in to the point jonathan lemire was making about this concession of the justice department in terms of tu...

Barrs rising power over the intelligence community has been accompanied by swelling disallusionment with mr. barr amongst security officials and moderates. when he agreed to take the job, many cast him as a republican straight shooter steeped in ideological moores. now they see him as someone who has glossed over mr. trumps misdeeds, smeared his investigations and possibly could declassify information for political gain. not the bill barr they knew. its more than a power grab. its a real threat ...

As soon as this weekend. he says hes reviewing the material that muellers given him, and maybe hell be able to do that. i know nobody -- as far as i can tell, nobodys been able to figure out exactly what volume of material mueller has given to barr, how much of an investment of time and energy it might take to actually review all of it. do you have any sense or any educated guesses as to what barr is looking at and what might count as a principal conclusion? >> well, rachel, i came over directly...

>> i dont think barr is going to want to talk about that. if mueller committed those thoughts to paper, thats exactly the heart of the kind of things that justice does not want to come out. and barr is going to not have that come out. theyll fight tooth and nail over that. >> so help me. sorry to interrupt. but help me on this. the american people have been told about this trump tower meeting in the middle of the campaign. donald trump jr., jared kushner, bring russians in. theyve been promised ...
