Former Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker on Thursday slammed the man who he succeeded, saying former AG Bill Barr's recent embrace of the Justice Department raid on Donald Trump flew in the face of all the wrongdoing he himself exposed in the discredited Russia collusion case.
"Bill Barr continues for some reason to be an institutionalist when it comes to the Department of Justice, even though based on what he presided over, he should know better," Whitaker said on the Thursday edition of Just the News, Not Noise.
"We have seen far too many examples as it relates to Donald Trump, and investigations into Donald Trump, that the Department of Justice just doesn't seem to follow its own traditions, rules and ethical considerations," Whitaker continued.
Whitaker gave his take on Trump being granted a special master by a federal judge to look over the documents seized from his home Mar-a-Lago.
"I think it's a very helpful fact, if you're for a special master being appointed," Whitaker stated. "Several of the documents that weren't included in the search warrant and authorized to be grabbed included the passports, medical records, attorney client privilege documents, accounting records and potentially tax returns."
Whitaker also pointed out that the FBI "taint team" was not very effective with filtering out what was and wasn't authorized regarding the search warrant.
"This was a very broad warrant," Whitaker concluded. "And obviously, Judge Cannon was not impressed by the taint team's work

Successor.
Predecessor.
Acting AG after Sessions, before Barr.
finally some pushback on dirty bill barr
i liked whitaker
What a wind bag
The lefties tore into Whittaker during his short stay as AG.
Whittaker would have been a better AG than Barr, especially in protecting Trump from the BS investigations conducted by the FBI and then Mueller.
He was acting AG after Sessions and before Barr for a few months, but my guess is, Mitch McConnell would never allow the Senate to vote on him, so Whittaker had to leave.
Fat Billy isn’t half as smart as he thinks he is. The Nazis and Commies are playing him like a cheap fiddle.
Life is facing temptations, politics, group acceptance or ridicule... among others.
Barr had zero resistance to the elite pull on him. Weak and choosing acceptance.. he became the media’s darling.. and turned on Trump and the country he got his wealth from.
Respect for him is gone.. the bunch he chose don’t understand Respect. Barr.. you flunked your test.
I’ve told my 2 grandsons.. you have to be different than everyone else. Get that into their head so they are familiar with it when asked mocked to do a wrong..
> “Mitch McConnell would never allow the Senate to vote on him, so Whittaker had to leave.”
That’s accurate. But note, McConnell controls the purse strings of the NRSC and the persons bringing $$$ to the NRSC are the ones who control McConnell.
saying former AG Bill Barr's recent embrace of the Justice Department raid on Donald Trump flew in the face of all the wrongdoing he himself exposed in the discredited Russia collusion case.Too many people including Whitaker have lost sight of the intent of the Russia collusion case.
It wasn't a game they were playing to embarrass Trump. It was a real concerted effort by powerful elected and non-elected political elites, like former VP.Joe Biden and don't forget John McCain. McCain hand delivered a falsified document supporting the attempted treason.
It began before Trump was inaugurated and continued long after.
The actors were/are many from every facet of government bureaucracies.
Hopefully the jokes on them. Because the innocent sounding Russiagate file Trump has possession of is actually evidence of an act of treason. Treason to unseat a legally elected sitting President and to overthrow the US government.
The raid Biden authorized, maybe instituted, was to retrieve the Russiagate files (AKA act of treason) and destroy the evidence.
Since right after the raid failed, panic has set in. Biden's unhinged rhetoric, Bill Barr, Peter Strozh, McCabe, Cohen etc. rhetoric has reached a fever pitch.
I think you have summed up a lot of this really well. But remember we have to keep her eyes on the prize which is the midterms and getting Joe Biden impeached. Both of those things are doable.
Bag Pipes Barr is fitting; Barr is full of hot sir.
Whitaker is a classy Jurist that demands respect, Barr, not so much.
I've got something FAT A$$ Barr can BLOW!
the only really logical explanation of Bill Barr’s behavior, both as AG and afterwards
is that his family is in deep deep deep in the Epstein pedophile ring
Whittaker, don’t you get it? Barr has become a whore.
He can’t be trusted anymore,
not since 2020. They own him.
Barr will be prosecuted and imprisoned if his actions as AG are brought into the sunlight. Without his participation the Jan 6 fiasco could not have been orchestrated. That’s his baby. That’s why he resigned before it.
