William Barr and his fake position on the Mueller Report

Included in the Donald Trump "no government" administration, Americans now have a "no attorney general" or a #fakeAG.  

A past MaineWriter blog described this leadership in a post link vacuum here.

Echoes about the particular leadership void in The Justice Department was expressed in the Dallas Morning News:

Don't be like Barr

The release of the Mueller report on Thursday, even in its redacted form, makes three things abundantly clear:

1. Barr is a shill for President Trump, not the chief law enforcement officer for the United States. Barr should never have been confirmed, he needs to be removed or at least removed from oversight of anything related to Trump or his associates.

2. Trump was not exonerated, but deeply implicated in conspiracy, obstruction and national security threats.

3. Mueller could not, through the confines of a narrow Department of Justice framework, criminally indict Trump, but the conclusion was for Congress to exercise its Article 1 duties to address Trump's corrupt, unethical behavior.

It is Sens. John Cornyn and Ted Cruz and Rep. Lance Gooden's duty to agree to public hearings and participate in a way to protect our country, not be gutless partisan shills like Barr.

Americans must be angry about this- listen to the truth!

The Mueller Report confirmed what all of the intelligence agencies found: The Russians interfered in our electoral process and attempted to sway the election to the candidate of their choice. Let's just forget the possibility of collusion. I want to know why there is no sense of outrage from our government?

The most precious privilege in a democracy is the right to choose our leaders. A foreign government actively interfered with this privilege. One could argue that this is an act of war.  Donald Trump, however, has refused to condemn Russia. As a result, he is endangering our nation. Yet his followers refuse to admit this and simply swallow everything he says as the truth. If this is what our nation has come to, maybe our democracy does not deserve to survive.

There is an apocryphal quote attributed to Ben Franklin who, when asked after the Constitutional Convention what sort of government had been formed, answered, "A republic, if you can keep it." I fear we will not be able to "keep it" much longer.
