Rachel is ramping up expectations for the redacted Mueller Report dump

[redstateblues]

As a talking head I guess that's part of the job. I'm not buying it. More of the same.

1. I don't think she's ramping up expectations as much as making Barr's role crystal clear.

From what I've seen, her point is that whatever Barr provides will be highly questionable because he's following the same pattern he did with Iran-Contra, etc. I don't think she's expecting - or suggesting - any kind of bombshell.

2. I'm not getting that at all. She's just pointing out that Barr

has pulled this shit before.

3. My ears are not hearing her that way. n/t

4. What are you talking about? Rachel is exposing Barr for the lying con he was and still is.

Her report tonight should make it a MUST for Congress to get the original documents and should help with any court proceeding that might be on the horizon. Trump kills everything he touches. He just killed Barr's career and integrity.

This is the most corrupt administration in my lifetime and I am over 70.

5. Maybe I'm misunderstanding you but she is lowering expectations on the release.

She doesn't expect there to be much based on his history of hiding information.

She was reporting on this;

10. You're welcome. nt

7. You know doubt got the wrong impression, she's saying Barr is going to hide & lie like he has before

[woodsprite]

8. I'm thinking it'll be more like Al Capone's vault. n/t

9. Lowered expectations. Thursday is Barr's redacted version of the Mueller.

[malaise]

11. Are you serious?

She is exposing his past as a cover-up liar

[a kennedy]

12. So yah she's not getting our hopes up for the Thursday reveal.....

Barr HAS done this before, and how long before the American Public found out what Barr had covered up during the first Bush years??? Like what 30 some damn years!!!!! Or did I hear that wrong. Congress will never get the real unredacted version for another 30 years!!!!!

[onecaliberal]

13. She's exposing barr for the obstructionist he is. If anything she's preparing us by reporting

That everyone expects it to be thoroughly cleaned by redaction.

[dewsgirl]

14. She isn't expecting much. Did you watch her whole A block?

[demtenjeep]

15. thank god for Rachel, Chris, Lawrence and even sometimes Tweety

WE need to yell the truth FAR and WIDE

[marble falls]

16. I'm getting tired of this defeatist clap trap. It isn't even over yet. The Courts and Congress ...

gotten involved yet. Can't you wait until the process kicks in???

17. I've just finished listening to her podcast, and what you said is simply not true. She spent the

entire first 20 odd minutes explaining how Barr misled Congress in 1989, while pulling the exact same stunt as he is doing now, with his "summary" letter.

She then laid out possible ways the truth might get out, which was reasonable, but she did not say that they would 100% succeed.
