\"Donald<\/p>\n

The latest rat to run ashore is Trump’s Attorney Genuflect, Bill Barr. A new and appropriately titled book scheduled for release later this year – Betrayal, by ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl<\/a><\/strong> – reveals some choice quotes by Barr related to Trump’s “Big Lie”<\/em> that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him. Barr told Karl<\/a><\/strong> that…<\/p>\n

“My attitude was: It was put-up or shut-up time. If there was evidence of fraud, I had no motive to suppress it. But my suspicion all the way along was that there was nothing there. It was all bull—-.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And on allegations that voting machines were rigged to switch votes from Trump to Biden, Barr said that…<\/p>\n

\u201cWe realized from the beginning it was just bull—. It\u2019s a counting machine, and they save everything that was counted. So you just reconcile the two. There had been no discrepancy reported anywhere, and I\u2019m still not aware of any discrepancy.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Really? Then how would Barr explain his staunchly sycophantic behavior<\/a><\/strong> while heading the Justice Department? How would he explain his initiatives to “uncover”<\/em> alleged mail-in voter fraud for which he admitted there was no evidence<\/a><\/strong>? How would he explain his appointment of special counsel John Durham to investigate contrived election irregularities<\/a><\/strong> involving Russia? And how does Barr explain his request to Fox News CEO Rupert Murdoch to “muzzle”<\/em> one of the network’s few Trump critics<\/a><\/strong>? At what point did Barr “realize”<\/em> that all of these projects were bull manure? It certainly wasn’t “from the beginning.”<\/em> <\/p>\n

While it’s interesting to see Barr confess that there was never any truth to Trump’s whining about non-existent voter fraud (which he is still doing<\/a><\/strong>), we must remember that Barr was fully complicit in Trump’s long and dangerous campaign of lies. He is only conceding these sins to absolve himself of the guilt that he deserves, and to try to piece together his shattered reputation. It isn’t going to work. And Trump, along with his criminal mob (including Barr) will forever be stained as traitors to America.<\/p>\n

UPDATE:<\/strong> It didn’t take long for Trump to lash out at Barr<\/a><\/strong> saying that, “RINO former Attorney General Bill Barr […] failed to investigate election fraud, and really let down the American people.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
