Barr says Trump prosecution is "legitimate case" and doesn't "run afoul of the First Amendment
C<b>BS</> ^

Washington — Former Attorney General WIlliam Barr dismissed the argument that the election interference case against former President Donald Trump is not valid because his statements were protected by the First Amendment.

"It's certainly a challenging case, but I don't think it runs afoul of the First Amendment," Barr told "Face the Nation" on Sunday. "From a prosecutor's standpoint, I think it's a legitimate case."

(snip)

Barr declined to say whether he was interviewed by the special counsel during the investigation, but said he would "of course" appear as a witness if called.

The former attorney general, who resigned from the Trump administration in December 2020, said he told Trump on at least three occasions that "in no uncertain terms that there was no evidence of fraud that would have changed the outcome."

Well he has verified his snake in the grass status.

I'm beginning to wonder if he among others is somewhat concerned about his actions (or lack thereof) exposed.

Bill Barr was an active co-conspirator in the attempted coup of the United States President, He did everything possible to shield all his friends who ran the op. He should be one of the first to Swing from a rope on the White House Lawn

Fat phuque will be dead soon. Human garbage. I hope Trump goes after his family and sends them to the poor house. Where is the poor house? I want to go there and laugh at Barr’s family.

Everyone with any. brains, says he’s wrong.

The man was a coward, and in large part did nothing as AG to examine the election fraud issues.

I wish he’d shut up.

I do remember "trust Sessions".

I didn't.

I remember the “Trust Sessions” bunch, and the people who said we were “winning” every time we lost.

I’ve been thinking my poo was smarter than Barr, and I think this clinches, that.

So we don’t have free speech anymore, because that’s “election interference”. Interesting.

There are a lot of people who are sweating bullets thinking about Trump winning in 2024. I forget who it was, but someone on TV sounded very scared when he said that if Trump wins, he might do to them what was done to him. I’m sure Barr is one of those sweating.
