Trump supporters and conspiracy theory - Part 2

  Hilarious. AFTER the KKK takes the path of the Dodo Bird, Bob Byrd renounces them. This is like Al Capone disavowing organized crime before going on trial for tax evasion. Both playing to Juries of their peers.

  You HATERS should be watching AG Barr Testify. The Dems are displaying why they are gonna lose in Nov. Hysterical Yelling, and just had a Dem Congresswoman accuse AG Barr of MURDER.  Completely Hysterically outta control Dems

   Maybe if YOU had actually watched the Barr Q/A YOU would have Your OWN Opinion to voice vs Parroting the opinion of others?
   Photos of the shooter that Executed the Black Trump Supporter in Wisconsin have been posted by law enforcement. This blatant attempt to Intimidate Trump's burgeoning Black Support, makes obvious the gains he is making in Black Communities.

Attorney General William Barr made false statements repeatedly in his House Judiciary Committee testimony today, inaccurately claiming at least three times that Roger Stone's criminal trial and sentencing judge, Amy Berman Jackson, agreed with Barr's intervention in the sentencing of Stone.

Barr says he hasn't seen Trump tweet praising Roger Stone for not flipping
WATCH THE VIDEO

Attorney General Bill Barr told the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday that he does not read President Trump's tweets after being grilled by Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) about the president's praise for Roger Stone for not testifying against him.

Why it matters: Barr has previously said that Trump's "constant background commentary" about the Justice Department can "make it impossible" for him to do his job. Stone was convicted of lying to Congress about his efforts to find out more about the timing of WikiLeaks' email dumps and recently had his sentence commuted by Trump.

The big picture: Trump testified in written answers to former special counsel Robert Mueller that he did not recall discussing WikiLeaks with Stone. Evidence from Stone's trial

and recently unredacted material from the Mueller report suggest the opposite. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonleopold/roger-stone-warned-trump-wikileaks-clinton-dump

Stone later told journalist Howard Fineman: "I had 29 or 30 conversations with Trump during the campaign period. He knows I was under enormous pressure to turn on him. It would have eased my situation considerably. But I didn’t. They wanted me to play Judas. I refused."
Democrats have accused Trump of commuting Stone's sentence to ensure that Stone would not incriminate him.

The exchange:

SWALWELL: "If Donald Trump lied to the Mueller investigators, which you agree would be a crime, then Roger Stone was in a position to expose Donald Trump's lies. Are you familiar with the Dec. 3, 2018, tweet where Donald Trump said Roger Stone had shown guts by not testifying against him?"
BARR: "No, I am not familiar with that."
SWALWELL: "You don't read the president's tweets?"
BARR: "No."
SWALWELL: "Well there's a lot of evidence in the president's tweets, Mr. Attorney General, I think you should start reading them."

Barr went on to make the disgraceful and possibly unprecedented observation that a serious charge Roger Stone was convicted of by a jury, witness tampering, was trivial, in his opinion!

.....Several Democrats pushed Barr on getting involved in the Stone case, questioning his decision to lessen the line prosecutors' recommendation, which prompted the prosecutors to leave the case.
"Mr. Attorney General, he threatened the life of a witness," Rep. Ted Deutch of Florida said to Barr, a reference to Stone's threats to Randy Credico.
"The judge agreed with me," Barr responded, arguing Credico did not actually feel threatened and a sentencing enhancement wasn't warranted.....

A Key Witness Against Roger Stone Says William Barr Twisted

Jun 26, 2020 - Randy Credico still says Stone threatened him. ... in a controversy over Attorney General William Barr's politicization of the Justice Department.

NPR policed its own, earlier failure to challenge Barr's repeated deception when questioned by an NPR reporter!

William Barr's mendacity today was so bold, he attempted to drown out questioning by House Committee member Eric Smallwell by repeating the same false claim about Stone's sentencing judge that was debunked weeks ago.:

“HINKY:” NPR PERMITTED BILLY BARR TO LIE MORE THAN ONCE
July 17, 2020 - by emptywheel
The other day, NPR’s public editor did a piece exploring
https://www.npr.org/sections/publiceditor/2020/07/16/890401446/npr-let-the-us-attorney-general-tell-a-falsehood-on-the-air?t=1594970751009
how the NPR allowed itself to spread Billy Barr’s lies about vote by mail uncontested. It reviews the exchange, noting where Steve Inskeep did not ask obvious follow-ups.
......
....Given that Barr primarily does interview with old friends from the Poppy Administration or propaganda outlet, I’m grateful that NPR reviewed this interview and laid out how Barr has successfully, relentlessly lied to the American people.

But they should have gone one step further, and noted all the other times Barr lied to Inskeep. And even before he lied about vote-by-mail, he falsely claimed that his interventions in both the Mike Flynn and Roger Stone case was proper. In the Stone case, for example, he explained his intervention in the sentencing recommendation because there was a dispute.

I was the decision maker in that case because there was a dispute. And usually what happens is, disputes, especially in high profile cases, come up to the attorney general.

To the extent there was a dispute, it was only because he had removed the Senate confirmed US Attorney and put in someone he told to dispute the sentencing guidelines. NPR also let Barr claim that his recommendation is what Amy Berman Jackson adopted, which is not at all true (she adopted most of the prosecutors’ guidelines sentence but gave Stone a lenient sentence on her own).

Worse still, NPR let Barr claim as fact that there was a lot hinky with Flynn’s case.

There was a lot of hinky stuff in the Flynn case. Everyone knew that. Everyone was wondering why was this case ever brought?

That’s not only false, but both DOJ Inspector General and Judge Emmet Sullivan had reviewed it and found nothing “hinky.” Effectively, Barr put in a flunkie to override the judgement of those people who are supposed to assess whether something is hinky.

Importantly, only people who haven’t consulted the public record believe that — which is why it is so dangerous for NPR to let the claim go unchallenged. So here, as with the vote-by-mail, Inskeep simply gave Barr the opportunity to provide false excuses for unprecedented abuse of power.

And the public editor should note that.

quickly taken down by Twitter and Facebook.

The president, in a marked shift from the more measured approach he’s taken toward the virus in recent days, also used his tweets to amplify criticism of Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert.

Tuesday's feud focused mostly on hydroxychloroquine, a drug long approved to treat malaria that Trump has vigorously advocated as a treatment for COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus.

Scientific studies have shown the drug can do more harm than good when used to treat symptoms of COVID-19, but doctors who believe otherwise argued for its use at an event Monday in Washington, citing their own experiences treating patients with the drug. The news conference and ensuing viral video was organized by Tea Party Patriots Action, a dark money group that has helped fund a pro-Trump political action committee.

Trump, his son Donald Trump Jr., and others shared video of the event on Facebook and Twitter, prompting both companies to step in and remove the content as part of an aggressive push to keep the sites free of potentially harmful information about the virus — though not before more than 17 million people had seen one version of the video circulating on the web.

After multiple polls showed the public disapproved of his handling of the coronavirus, Trump recently began encouraging people to wear face coverings and tried to project a more serious tone as the virus has surged again, primarily in Arizona, California, Florida and Texas.

Trump wore a face mask in public on Monday in North Carolina, just the second time he has done so during the pandemic.

Last week, he said the situation would probably worsen before it gets better, and he cited the virus as a reason for canceling GOP convention events scheduled for August in Jacksonville, Florida.

More than 4 million people in the U.S. have been infected by the coronavirus and the death toll is nearing 150,000, according to a tally by Johns Hopkins University.

Seitz reported from Chicago. David Klepper in Providence, R.I., and Marilynn Marchione in Milwaukee contributed to this report.

What’s hilarious is you desperately trying to tag Biden as a racist because he praised the later legislative record of a guy who was involved with the Klan in the early 1940s, when Donald Trump is himself a racist now.
