“There’s a real danger, in fact an urgent threat, that anything the Department of Justice does will be timed to aid the president,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D- Conn.) said in an interview, adding, “Barr has proven ready, willing and able to distort, distract and deceive.”

Isn't Blumenthal the one who said he served in Vietnam - but really didn't? I'm pretty sure it was him.

Everyone knows what happened. The only surprise left is if any indictments are handed out.

I think Barr got the message he is being treated as a hostile witness. There is no sense in playing political softball

The Democrats would do this in heartbeat, if they had the chance. Remember the indictment of Caspar Weinberger?

Re: “Republicans have been eagerly awaiting Durham’s findings”

LOL!

The only thing Durham and Barr will find are a dozen new excuses for why no one will be prosecuted.

Not that it matters.

Every trial would be conducted in Washington D.C. or New York City, where no Democrat will ever be convicted for a politically related crime.

Why should the truth alter the election?

Wouldnt it be the case that withholding critical information is the real election manipulation?

That has drawn accusations from Democrats and legal analysts that he is inappropriately talking about an ongoing case and prejudging its outcome.

A "case"? What's this about a "case"?
All he's supposed to be doing is writing a report.
A "case" means something else is going on.

/confused Democrat impression

Attorney General William P. Barr reiterated this week that he will not wait until after November’s election to release whatever U.S. Attorney John Durham finds in his examination of the FBI’s 2016 investigation into President Trump’s campaign, raising fears among Democrats that Barr and Durham could upend the presidential race with a late revelation.

Barr won't wait, because he has already told Durham to wait!

It is a war and AG Barr refused to be its first casualty.

I’ll applaud the loudest if he can jerk a big drain plug from the bottom of the SWAMP.

Why wait til the last minute? Let’s have a string of August, September AND October surprises!

And the dems would not do that if they were in that boat.. hardy har!

The dems didn’t help their side, treating the AG like they did last week. Barr sitting in the seat of the AG.. it wasn’t smart to try to humiliate him.

Yes.

Or, as Howie Carr calls him, “Danang Dick” 😷

Barr has proven ready, willing and able to distort, distract and deceive.

The rule of opposites--and projection--every time.

Translation: Blumenthal has proven ready, willing and able to distort, distract and deceive."

Democrats, meanwhile, have worried that the Connecticut U.S. attorney is aiding a political stunt designed to undercut an investigation that dogged Trump’s presidency.

To the Democrat media, prosecutions and indictments are "political stunts".

WaPo did finally get one thing right: Printing the truth about the Obama Spying Scandal would , indeed, be a “campaign altering” surprise.

Yes Blumenthal is the slimey whole who pretended to serve in Vietnam.
Isn’t it revealing how the democrats could not go 5 minutes without accusing President Trump of Russian collusion for 4 years,now when any thing comes up about Russian collusion the democrats say what? Never heard of it!
A report from Durham is the least that should be done BEFORE the elections because it is something that is unique in our countries history.
An Attempted Coup
