    1. Any body else would be held for contempt of court or lying to Congress. But Barr didn’t…that should apply to all Americans since these people can get away with it.

    2. Please show proof. Because “you say so” is no proof. Link me to video evidence. You can’t, not because there is any evidence, but you’re too dumb to be able to do it…

    3. And I’m sure not a single Democrat who was screaming “innocent protesters” told one single lie either, right? Please.

  1. Every time Barr has to lie, he diverts the questions. The answers are known to the world but by confirming them, he puts himself against the law and therefore facing impeachment.

    1. As we say in the military, “You can’t listen while your talking” Why with the theatrics? Neurotic clowns 🤡 Escobar….what ridiculous questions 🤮🤮🤮

    2. @cisa93 An American staff-sergeant came up with this phrase and endorsed by the Royal Canadian Forces: Mission first – People always.

    3. Pierre Bibeau: What the mission here? Missions dictate clear objectives to be met. Didn’t hear that in this hearing.

    4. @cisa93 Sorry, I was not referring to the hearing but rather (when you mention military) a phrase that was so true that the Royal Canadian Forces used it. It was taught to me by a Colonel when I was a Lieutenant-Colonel. Kind regards and may the USA become greater than this presidency.

    5. Pierre Bibeau presidents come and go, but the military is made up of the backbone of what makes up a country. We carry out our missions regardless of the political spectrum. However, over the last previous administrations, we’ve been tasked with these endless wars that have no end in sight. Thats rests at the previous two American presidents.

  2. Hey party of “law and order”—are those exploding heads I hear? I hope so—otherwise it means they’re duds.

  3. Stone was PAID with COMMUTE of Sentence FOR Keeping Quiet About Trump Wrongs/Illegal acts = QUID PRO QUO!!!!!

    1. @Darren Claxton Statements like these make me support Hilary for calling Trump supporters: deplorables and uneducated.

    2. Yes but Stone can use that to him advantage if trump say one bad thing about him Stone could turn on trump, you know what say Revenge is sweet to most .

    3. Hey lets vote for OBAMA AGIN SO HE CAN GIVE 150 BILLION DOLLARS AND NUKES TO TERRORIST IRAN. OR HOW ABOUT KILLER HILLARY WHO HAS KILLED 50 PEOPLE AND SOLD 20 PERCENT OF OUR URANIUM TO A RUSSIAN COMPANY OWN BY PUTIN.
      DEMOCRATS ARE THE REAL ENEMY TERRORIST TRAITORS OF AMERICA ALONG WITH THE FAKE NEWS MSM. SATAN LOVES DEMONIC DEMOCRATS. BURN YOUR CITY DOWN. WAKE UP STUPID. SATAN HAS YOU FOOLED. !!!

    1. @Emilio Torres lmao. And why do you stand by Trump then? Before politics, he was already the worst of us

    2. @Canis Africanis You silly people say these things with zero credibility. You offer no evidence or examples. The world is wise to it now. Your arrogant stupidity has run it’s course.

    3. Albin M dude, really?. Cuz ever since he became a president, ya’ll especially went from turning “Trump” from a simile for rich and baller life style all the way to “literlly hitler”….I dont like swearing or disrespecting, but stfu you sheep

    4. Canis Africanis more like anime-of-me; The japanese value ‘Honor’, and the democrats have none of it. i love anime, and Trump.

  4. Doesn’t remember, hasn’t looked into it…. blah blah…. so exactly what is he doing with his time?

    1. @NavyVet

      Ah! Whataboutwaaaaaa! Of course! Touche! What a solid argument!

      Go back to your qanon headquarters, flerf.

    2. @NavyVet November 3rd = Dishonorable discharge of the felon from our tarnished white house.

    3. @D J he tried REPEATEDLY to deflect, obscure, obfuscate, and otherwise NOT give direct answers. He is not allowed to use up time, with his b.s.. and YOU should know better!

    1. That was all the crying Democrats crying, “Reclaiming my time….reclaiming my time..” They would not allow Barr to answer almost all the questions because they were not there to truly get answers. This was just a forum for them to attack and attempt character assassination of AG Barr. Its disgusting and most of America doesn’t support mob rule like Democrats do.

  5. We know he did a deal on trumps friends because of the way he treated Cohen. when Cohen didnt sign off on the agreement not to write a book he was recaged and silenced by the DOJ. So if barr does not know what’s going on in his DOJ then the DOJ is out of control and ran by trump

    1. We are all connected: Why not? You do believe in getting some facts not just the garbage the MSM puts out!

    2. Lets see how these evil demonic terrorist in congress smile WHEN GOD JUDGES THEM ON JUDGEMENT DAY. DEMONIC DEMOCRATS ARE PURE SATANIC EVIL. GOD BLESS BARR AND PRESIDENT TRUMP!!!
      ONLY EVIL SATANIC FOOLS VOTE DEMOCRAT AND BELIEVE THE FAKE LYING MSM FAKE NEWS.

    3. So its okay when Democrats support TERROIRISTS. OBAMA GAVE 150 BILLION AND NUKES TO IRAN. THEY SPIED ON AMERICANS. DEMOCRATS ARE BURNING CITIES.
      So sad so many demonic moron fools vote democrat. Unreal they cant see the truth. Satan has them fooled.

    4. @Annie Warbux speaking of blue what about cuomo. Seems like the blue governors are responsible for a large amount of deaths because of sending infected patients to nursing homes.

    1. He was the one standing up for the rule of law and protecting government property and Federal law enforcement officers. Democrats sided with the mob. You own this.

    2. @NavyVet

      Barr = enabling and engaging in corruption at highest levels of office
      NavyVet = “hE wAS thE OnE sTANdinG Up FoR thE rULe of LAw”

    3. @Dialogue=Progress yeah it’s as if they went deaf when biden started saying racist things. They hated trump but Hillary and biden seem to just as bad. The only difference is Joe Biden’s cognitive ability is declining. Now that he’s adapted far left concepts it’s only a matter of time before AOC, or someone equally insane becomes vice president

  6. “Under Oath”, and that’s why it’s so sad! There is no truth here and there will never be. Making lies sound like the truth is the currency here.

  7. He doesn’t care just like the man in the WH. He is as corrupted as the man in the WH so they shouldn’t expect any truth coming out of his mouth.

    1. Because both of them know the Republicans in the Senate won’t ever convict them if they both get impeached.

    2. That’s true but it’s great comedy to watch him lie and have senile moments. Ugh ugh you talking to me. Yes you the one under oath😂😅

    3. I think when you heard the AG tell the Democrat questioning him about whether he would commit to doing this or that and he responded that he would uphold the law, that was the defining moment when you should have realized the difference between politicians such as Democrats who were trying to destroy him and a person who is going to do his job.

    4. Just a queation.. WHO in government is NOT corrupt? You think you’ll get one that’s not by getting Trump out the WH??? It will only get worse from here and you’re stupid if you think otherwise.

    1. @T Electronix Aye equates Trumps “I don’t know them..I don’t know anything about them…I’ve never met them”

    2. I have nothing factual to attempt to slander someone with so I’ll just post some inane text. Way to go.

  8. ..sure. I “belive” Barr had “no idea” about putting Michael Cohen back in prison… Good thing all this was under oath. The house of cards is showing signs of collapse.

    1. Jussi Jokinen – Armas Productions RepubliKKKans and Fake Conservatives voted for Trump not Democratic Americans 💁🏼‍♀️ Bar is Guilty AF Period🤣😆😂

  9. If the AG knows so little of what goes on in his department, knows nothing about the job he’s doing,why does he still have that job???

  10. Barr acts like he’s untouchable they should show him that he’s not, he should be disbarred and imprisoned.

    1. @Darrell Chabaniuk I said where I was from. It was literally the first sentence.

      Thousands are dying every day but the so-called president maunders on about why people like him less than Anthony Fauci. That is an obscenity. How are you even looking at this world? I don’t want to know
