Bill Barr: NY State AG Trump Lawsuit ‘Political Hit Job’ — Dragging Children in ‘Gross Overreach’
Breitbart ^ | 09/21/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/21/2022 12:20:59 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former Attorney General Bill Barr said Wednesday on FNC’s “America Reports” that New York State Attorney General Letitia James’s lawsuit against former President Donald Trump and his adult children was a “political hit job.”

Barr said, “It’s hard for me not to conclude it’s a political hit job. This is a woman who campaigned for office promising she was going to go after Trump, which I think is a tremendous abuse of office to go headhunting and targeting individuals. So I think she was targeting Trump.”

Getting ‘one’ right doesnt make up for unreliable. He will just screw it up again tomorrow.

His rhetoric is intentional and calculating.

If you’re a #NeverTrump and you’ve lost Atty. Bill Barr, you may have jumped the shark, even for him!
That said, I’ll bet another lawyer, George Conway is delighted. He just put his 3rd pre-breakfast Popcorn in the Microwave.

Barr wants Trump falsely imprisoned. This will only steal his money.

Barr has a really weird connection to epstein....something about barr hiring epstein at some elite private school in nyc....very strange.

Between that and his obvious desire to see President Trump destroyed I dont trust the SOB.

They file this right before an election as if President Trump us running.

He is NOT running for anything in this upcoming election.

Bill Barr wants to be an “elder statesman” for the uniparty-GOP, so when push comes to shove, he will defend the DOJ

But NY AGs have been corrupt political hacks for 30 years, seeking big media political and financial cases to push their own careers.

James in NY is the quintessence of such an awful, corrupt trend. This “impartial law-enforcement officer” has terminal TDS and has publicly screeched many times she will take Trump down.

Even Barr won’t ignore that.

Time to throw Fatass Latisha in prison for using her position as a political weapon. She’s a real political scumbag.

...”tremendous abuse of office”...

Nothing shall be considered an ‘abuse of office’ when one is an entitled, black, female.

Here's how the NY AG civil lawsuit will go....

1/— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) September 21, 2022

Once Trump is served, he takes a few weeks to respond. He probably cannot remove the case since there are NY defendants, so no diversity. Now we're in mid-October. He moves to dismiss.

2/— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) September 21, 2022

I have only skimmed this dog's breakfast of a complaint, but what popped out at me for the parts I looked are were the lack of damages allegations, much less ones against NY, the plaintiff. You cannot sue if you did not suffer a loss. None are pleaded in the parts I looked at.
3/— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) September 21, 2022

Other causes of action may have damages allegations - we'll see. But there are plenty of other grounds to move to dismiss that just leap off the page.

4/— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) September 21, 2022

Let's get real - if they thought they had Trump they would have filed a criminal case, but they have to prove that beyond a reasonable doubt. A civil suit is a preponderance of the evidence. They had no criminal case. They chose civil "fraud" to impress dumb people.

5/— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) September 21, 2022

So, the initial motion to dismiss will not be heard before the midterm - the real mission was accomplished by filing suit in time to influence the election, but not so early that this garbage case could be tossed out before the election.

6/— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) September 21, 2022

I expect the case will be dropped or tossed after a couple motion to dismiss rounds. Maybe there will be a small, piddling settlement the AG will claim is a victory. It's not a real lawsuit. It's lawfare. And I hope red AGs are taking note of the new rules.
