How will this change a single thing when the head of the FBI and Attorney General are willing to commit crimes, you know, like the Obama administration?
If heads do not roll, and I mean several, we have lost our country.
What comes after that will be ugly...

WEAK RESPONSE!

Making the A.G. and FBI director "sign off"??

so if Loretta Lynch and Comey said ok, it would be fine and dandy? THEY DID!

Barr is a huge disappointment.

Every day in every way Barr is beginning to look like a Deep Swamp apologist and Bushbot.

Bagpipe Bill has a second career in comedy if he wants it. This is funny stuff.

Barr isn’t the problem. He’s just trying to cover up the real problem: The GOP swampers who refuse to substantively support POTUS against the coup and the MAGA GOP platform they were elected to support. If the truth became obvious GOP voter morale would crater and the Dems would win a landslide in 2020.

Barr is the fixer for the DS, as this pathetic ruling shows. He is there to whitewash this corruption.

Is this suppose to make everyone feel better? This doesn’t even qualify as a Band-Aid. There was obvious wrongdoing and very possibly violations of law here. It appears Barr is looking to sweep everything under the rug.

the moment it was known Clinton paid for the phony Russian Dossier & that it was used in the FISA warrant applications, the Mueller farce should have been shut down; new investigation should have begun immediately into Clinton & co.

how differently might the mid-term elections have turned out?

plus there would be no impeachment rubbish which, in effect, is interference in the 2020 election.

Barr has exactly zero fear being fired or a GOP Congress lighting a rocket under him for aiding and abetting the coupists. Sadly, it is now clear we are looking at Rip Van Sessions 2.0.

Correct. THe moment it was clear the Steele Dossier was Clinton paid oppo research garbage every GOP Senator should have marched over to the White House and announced along with POTUS that hopelessly conflcited Mueller was terminated and a replacement for the hopelessly recused Sessions would be the top priority.

That did not happen because the GOP used the Mueller coup to hamstring POTUS, assault his supporters and steal the beltway agenda from him. So here we are 3 years later fighting the same battles again because that is exactly what the GOP wants.

A lot of people are still hoping he will be a Savior.

I used to hope that as well.

He still might indict a few of the coup d'état players (Comey, McCabe, and lower thugs), but NEVER Obama. NEVER Hillary. NEVER Soros.

So does this mean their sign-offs won’t be redacted next
time and the training videos and “new rules” are gonna fix
it all under the peachy historically unbiased supervision,
of just who, again?

But do keep rubbing our noses in it, while we still wait for
the details of the last ones to be declassified...

It will make that part more fun.

Barr failure to make any move towards cleaning up the deep swamp is beginning to look like another pile of BS.

Future investigations involving a U.S. presidential candidate or campaign will have to be approved by the leaders of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Justice Department, Attorney General William Barr said.

The "leaders of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Justice Department" DID approve of the coup.

He says that as if they didn't.

Keep in mind that we haven’t even heard Mike Pence and Mitch McConnell comment on spygate. I didn’t believe that Barr would do anything.
