William of Orange

Billy Barr, the Boor

July 9, 2019

Chrump’s long sought-after Roy Cohn, William "Low" Barr should be choking on his words more than he is, but I guess if you are willing to work for Donald Chrump rather than for the American people – as Barr’s job description would suggest – you are more than ready to fuck the country at every turn.

Words to Choke On

Barr previously said he had no problem with Robert Mueller testifying to Congress about the report he submitted.  That all changed once Mueller was subpoenaed and is now due to testify on July 17.  Now that Mueller is scheduled to voice aspects of his report in public, under oath, Barr has been changing his diaper on an almost hourly basis – or so we are saying.

Barr, with malice of forethought, lied about what the Mueller report concluded.  He delayed releasing even a redacted version of the report in order to keep his fabricated version in the public’s mind as long as possible so as to weaken the impact of Mueller’s actual words once they fought their way to the surface.

"Besides, as the vilest Writer has his Readers, so the greatest Liar has his Believers; and it often happens, that if a Lie be believ’d only for an Hour, it has done its Work, and there is no farther occasion for it. Falsehood flies, and the Truth comes limping after it; so that when Men come to be undeceiv’d, it is too late; the Jest is over, and the Tale has had its Effect…"

                                                                           Jonathan Swift, 1710

To make matters more despicable, Barr told reporters what he thought about Mueller testifying on Capitol Hill, “To me the only reason for doing that is to create some kind of public spectacle and if Bob decides that he doesn’t want to be subject to that then the Department of Justice would certainly back him.”  It is always comforting to know that the U.S. Attorney General thinks subpoenas can simply be ignored.  Now, I am not a lawyer, but that sounds strikingly like some form of witness tampering.

Sex Traffic Jam

Meanwhile, it looks like Barr will have to recuse himself from any legal wranglings involving Jeffrey Epstein, who currently stands accused of sex trafficing with minors.  Epstein got a shout-out back in 2002 from a fellow player: “I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy.  He’s a lot of fun to be with.  It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it – Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”  That not-so-faint praise came from some guy named Donald Trump, who now denies he had any relationship with this terrific guy. 

One reason Barr may be recusing himself could be the fact that his father hired Epstein – before he was a billionaire, but not necessarily before he was a pedophile – to teach high school.  Epstein was not even a college graduate, and one year later, Barr the Elder resigned from his job as the school district brought in, according “an outside committee to study the school and to assess its operation under Mr. Barr.”  Shortly after that, Epstein left his “teaching” position and went to Wall Street.

The current Labor Secretary Alex Acosta aided and abetted Epstein’s escape from justice on similar charges in 2008 when Acosta was U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, where Epstein was terrorizing young women at the time.

Are these the best fucking people or what?

I. Mangrey reporting.  Tell me why.
