Barr Resigns
2020-12-16
[POWERLINEBLOG] William Barr has announced that he is resigning as Attorney General. His last day in office will be December 23.You can read Barr’s letter of resignation here. It begins with this pregnant sentence:

I appreciate the opportunity to update you this afternoon on the Department’s review of voter fraud allegations in the 2020 election and how these allegations will continue to be pursued.

Trump’s legal team suggested that the Justice Department hasn’t properly investigated or pursued voter fraud allegations. Trump himself said he would know in a few weeks whether he has confidence in Barr in this regard. Barr’s briefing and resignation letter come less than two weeks after that statement.

#11  Keep in mind that Barr was AJ and oversaw Ruby Ridge. As an Idahoan, that tells me all I need to know.

#10  The smart deep state person lies low until the very end instead of drawing attention with petty rebellion. Barr was very smart.

#9  Barr like most swampie gazillionaires made his loot by hopping over to a company whose profits are heavily dependent on decisions made in DC -- by him and his former colleagues.

Bet good money that Barr will resurface next year as a $10 million per year (via options of course) Sr VP at Fakebook, Sh!tter or GooGoo

#2  He saw (or refused to acknowledge) election fraud at a level that might change outcomes. No need to stick around and help the old boss see that justice is done and the rights of forgotten men are upheld. He waved goodbye to the Captain and lowered himself into a small boat, leaving women and children below deck.

#1  Unlike his one time boss's son, Bill Barr can truly say, "Mission Accomplished."
