At least Sessions didn’t spew completely irrelevant BS.

Civil rights violations. Though to me it’s more like Natural Rights violations.

Barr is right. But these measures are not only violations of civil rights, but of natural rights as expressed in the Constitution.

None of the things the governors are doing are constitutional. This includes things such as deciding which businesses people may enter, and how many people they will permit, if, where and how churches should hold services, preventing assemblies that they do not like, restricting freedom of movement, preventing travel between the states, stifling freedom of speech by forcing people to wear what is essentially a gag...well, the list goes on and on.

I just wish Barr would at least attempt to do something about this. And Trump should be more forceful about demanding that the governors get back to abiding by the Constitution. Even the concept that they had a legitimate power to “close” their states in the first place is wrong.

Aside from the fact that the bad guys are still running around free and lying on TV, first principles must be articulated clearly and concisely. Barr just did that. But the rogue's gallery is still out there.

Will Barr be filing an Amicus brief in Tom Wolf’s appeal of his smackdown to the Third Circuit? Unless Barr is just bloviating hot air the answer would have to be yes.

Barr’s comments were quite correct. The media was outraged.

CNN’s bias is just dripping with venom here. Barr is spot on in his assessment and he is defending liberty not the President. Which, of course, is the real enemy of CNN.

Well... There's taxes, gun control, abortion, and the "War on some Drugs"...

But sure... This COVID crap deserves to be on that list...
