Bill Barr: The Cover-Up General

Barr has solidified his position as the most corrupt AG in US history.
 
A former FBI senior agent is reporting that current FBI Agents have been asked who they voted for and if they support Trump during this "investigation".

SIEG HEIL Barr!!!
 
The only way to fight the next Barr is when Trump leaves office to investigate, charge and jail him. Make there be a price for perverting the law.
 
Barr is working to undermine findings Barr already said exonerated Trump.
 
I’ll put this here.


Richard Groves: Society and the secular scapegoat



On Oct. 11, Attorney General William Barr spoke at an event sponsored by the Notre Dame Law School and the de Nicola Center for Ethics and Culture. The speech was applauded by some (Rod Dreher of the American Conservative called Barr a “Religious Liberty Warrior”) and blasted by others. One Christian organization filed an official complaint requesting that the speech be removed from the Department of Justice website and that Barr apologize for “making remarks in favor of Christian nationalism.”

The central thesis of Barr’s speech was that over the past 50 years — since roughly 1970, I suppose — “we have seen the steady erosion of our traditional Judeo-Christian moral system and ... the growing ascendancy of secularism and the doctrine of moral relativism.”

Barr catalogued what he called “the bitter results of the new secular age:” “the wreckage of the family ... record levels of depression and mental illness, dispirited young people, soaring suicide rates, increasing numbers of angry and alienated young males, an increase in senseless violence, and a deadly drug epidemic.”

There is no question that there has been a seismic shift in ethical values in recent decades. But to lay all that conservatives think is wrong with American culture at the feet of secularism goes way beyond the evidence.

Consider the “soaring suicide rates” that Barr considers one of the “consequences of this moral upheaval”: Suicide rates are indeed at their highest since World War II. In 2017, the suicide rate stood at 14 per 100,000 population. The last time the rate was that high was in 1942.

On the surface that seems to be consistent with Barr’s claim that morality has collapsed in the last 50 years, a casualty of a war being waged on religion.

Except for those pesky things called facts....
