Discredit the AG by Democrats you spent 8 years attacking Eric Holder if nobody is discrediting Barr he did that all on his own with his 4 page summary of the Muellar and then blocking Muellar from testifying.

Can you imagine if Obama’s AG prevented the lead investigator from testifying with Congress on a foreign adversary that hacked our e******n. Trump appoints Barr and within 2 weeks he writes a summary and Barr had nothing to do with the 2 year investigation and then blocks the guy that actually did the investigation.

Nobody has to discredit Barr he did that all on his own. Then Trump and Barr defy subpoenas, refuses to release documentation to Congress on any government oversight and then release a 4 page summary that totally ignored the Muellar report. Over 400 people testified with Muellar. A 440 page summary by Muellar and we get a redacted report not to mention the well over 500 page report on testimony people forget that. But Barr says Trump 100% exonerated and the evidence is with held from the American people.

I just can’t imagine if Obama, Clinton and Eric Holder had ever defied subpoenas and documentation. 98 Subpoenas during the Clinton and Obama investigations hundreds of thousands of documentation turned over to the Republican held house and senate, two CIA investigations, 3 FBI investigations, 2 DOJ investigations, 2 State Department investigations, Clinton volunteers and have 19 hours of grilling testimony to the Republican lead House and Senate, testified with the FBI, and State Department independent council and the Republican lead House and Senate found nothing not one indictment.

This foolishness needs to stop and Trump supporters have to open there eyes and minds as to what Barr and Trump are doing.

Barr was discredited because he intentionally tried to misrepresent the Mueller Report. As for going after the origins of the investigation into Trump, I thought you conservatives were arguing that the investigation started with Christopher Steele? It was the FBI who has said they started investigating Trump because of Papadopoulos boasts to an Australian Diplomat. Papadopoulos told the Australians that the Russians were going to release e-mails hacked from the Hillary campaign and the DNC. When Wikileaks did, the FBI began its investigation.

So what's nefarious about that? Isn't that exactly what we would WANT the FBI to do? Are you people so desperate to protect Trump that you wouldn't want the FBI to investigate such a suspicious action?

And what happened to Christopher Steele? What happened to the belief that Hillary used Steele to compose a totally false report about Trump who then fed it to the FBI who were supposed to use it to take him down? Now you are saying that Papadopoulos is where is started?

Pennylynn, you are supposed to be the smartest and most educated person on this board. At what point do you ask if you are simply being fed propaganda and you gullibly believe it???

Pennylynn: all a Dem. Or the media need do is say Barr is guilty or Trump.is guilty and...Voila!
They are guilty.
Its obvious that the media and Dems want to get Barr to stop investigating Hillary and co. And prevent any investigation of the FBI and CIA.
No, the FBI and CIA is NOT DOING ITS JOB when it uses its offices to stop a legitimate candidate from participating in a p**********l e******n.
They should have informed Trump of possible Russian interference in the e******n, thus prevent possible crimes.
This whole scenario does harm our intelligence and investigative agencies, AS IT SHOULD. Clean the "Aegean" stables and they will come back to their proper role...as did the British after the Kim Philby scandal.
But no! The media and Dems think anything, ANYTHING to destroy President Trump and the GOP is acceptable. ANYTHING!
We are close to losing the America it took over 240 years to build.
Thanks Pennylynn and all your ilk.

Your response is close, but incorrect. During the Republican primaries, a research firm called Fusion GPS was hired by The Washington Free Beacon, a conservative website, to unearth potentially damaging information about Mr. Trump. The Free Beacon — which was funded by a major donor supporting Mr. Trump’s rival for the party’s nomination, Senator Marco Rubio of Florida — told Fusion GPS to stop doing research on Mr. Trump in May 2016, as Mr. Trump was clinching the Republican nomination.

Up to this point, it was legal and all the firm was doing was deep searches on Mr Trump and had not been asked to make up "facts." Then Clinton and the DNC through their law firm, Perkins Coie, stepped in to buy the information and to "find more facts." It was at that point that Fusion GPS hired Mr. Steele, who has deep sourcing in Russia, to gather information. Problem for Clinton, payment was not reported.

This is the point it gets interesting and shady. The then-senior Department of Justice, Bruce Ohr, official briefed both senior FBI and DOJ officials in summer 2016 about Christopher Steele’s Russia dossier, explicitly cautioning that the British intelligence operative’s work was opposition research connected to Hillary Clinton’s campaign and might be biased or untrue. Ohr’s briefings, in July and August 2016, included the deputy director of the FBI, a top lawyer for then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch and a Justice official who later would become the top deputy to special counsel Robert Mueller.

At the time, Ohr was the associate deputy attorney general. Yet his warnings about political bias were pointedly omitted weeks later from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant that the FBI obtained from a federal court, granting it permission to spy on whether the Trump campaign was colluding with Russia to hijack the 2016 p**********l e******n.

Now let us connect the dots, Ohr divulged his first contact with the FBI was on July 31, 2016, when he reached out to then-Deputy Director Andrew McCabe and FBI attorney Lisa Page. He then was referred to the agents working Russia counterintelligence, including Peter Strzok, the now-fired agent who played a central role in starting the Trump collusion probe.

But Ohr’s contacts about the Steele dossier were not limited to the FBI. He said in August 2016 — nearly two months before the FISA warrant was issued — that he was asked to conduct a briefing for senior Justice officials.

Those he briefed included Andrew Weissmann, then the head of DOJ’s fraud section; Bruce Swartz, longtime head of DOJ’s international operations, and Zainab Ahmad, an accomplished terrorism prosecutor who, at the time, was assigned to work with Lynch as a senior counselor.

Ahmad and Weissmann would go on to work for Mueller, the special prosecutor overseeing the Russia probe.

It is during this time that John McCain obtained a copy of the Steele Dossier and demanded that a Committee be assembled to formally investigate the newly elected President. He was a step behind, obama had already been briefed on the Dossier and the Russian connection.
