Rep. Jackie Speier: The Only Way To Get Rid Of Barr Is To Impeach Him
Rep. Jackie Speier (D-CA) said that Attorney General Barr will never resign so if Congress wants him gone, hell need to be impeached.
Rep. Speier said, Barr wont resign. He may need to be impeached. I think he has shown that he is not the attorney for the American people. He is the Roy Cohn for Donald Trump He is not here to ensure that justice is done. Hes here to make sure that Donald Trump is protected.
When asked by CNNs Erin Burnett if she was in favor of impeaching Barr at this time, Speier said, I would certainly consider it. Hes not going to resign, so thats just a nice way of saying that he should go. The only way he would go is if we were to impeach him.

Rep. Speier was right. William Barr isnt going to resign on his own. If the American people want Trumps human shield removed from the Justice Department, they are going to have to pressure Congress to impeach him, because Barr is here for the long haul. The Mueller investigation isnt the only federal legal problem that Donald Trump has.
Trump wanted a Roy Cohn, which means that the Southern District of New York better be on high alert.
Bob Barrs symphony of corruption is just getting warmed up.
If Congress wants to stop him, they must impeach him.

(53,785 posts)1. Barr is the once successful guy making a comeback who finds times have changed since Iran/Contra
That shit worked back in the HW Bush days but blatant lying, misleading and covering for corrupt ass repugs doesn't go over well now.
Fuck his lying fat ass and the windbag scum liar who hired him.

(37,364 posts)2. As long as McConnell has a stranglehold on the Senate,
that will not happen. Impeachment requires a two-thirds majority. Trump's cult in Congress will continue to protect him.
DOJ and legal profession has been corrupted. I wonder if the Bar could strip him of his license to practice.
