Bill Barr!

In an exclusive interview, Attorney General Bill Barr told ABC News on Thursday that President Donald Trump "has never asked me to do anything in a criminal case” but should stop tweeting about the Justice Department because his tweets “make it impossible for me to do my job.”

  ABC
Don't you think he should be telling that to His Lardship and not to the world on ABC? I smell trouble coming.
When asked if he was prepared for the consequences of criticizing the president – his boss – Barr said “of course” because his job is to run the Justice Department and make decisions on “what I think is the right thing to do.”
Better ask His Lardship about what his job is.
“I’m not going to be bullied or influenced by anybody ... whether it’s Congress, a newspaper editorial board, or the president,” Barr said.
We'll see about that.  Barr also said, "It's time to stop tweeting about Department of Justice criminal cases.  He's going to get called to the oval office, isn't he?
"I cannot do my job here at the department with a constant background commentary that undercuts me.”
You undercut yourself, Billy Boy.

The interview is here.





And he probably can't understand why Bill Barr wouldn't be happy to be congratulated for it in a Trump tweet.


...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
