After the US House votes on the Contempt of Congress by the Attorney General it needs to secure the Former Director of the FBI and members of the Special Council as witnesses to court proceedings.
Barr is disregarding the law that legislated the Special Counsel. Barr is partisan. It is obvious. There was absolutely no reason for Barr to ignore any subpoena. He could have easily appeared to the US House committees and explained his unreasonable reasons to withhold the entire Special Counsel report and supporting documents.
The facts are clear. The American people have a law that relieves the DOJ of the burden of any intense and urgent investigation to solve a defined problem. That law is the Special Counsel. It provides for an AUTONOMOUS study of the issue(s) involved and reporting those findings to the DOJ to act in filing legal proceedings as soon as possible That occurred under Assistant Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. There was no problem and proceedings of those actions by the Assistant AG are proving to be very important to the sovereign state of the USA.
Now, the new Attorney General wants to hobble the rest of the government to better study the findings and supporting documents. THAT IS OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE. Plain and simple.
The Special Council are not clerks. The Speical Council calls forward the best of America to solve problems resulting from dangers to sovereignty issues among other reasons. In this case, Russia has been known to carry out active influence in the 2016 elections including the easily detected hacking of the DCCC and the Clinton Campaign. Those efforts intensified when Trump asked Putin to find 30,000 deleted emails.
The facts are filed. The report is made with a working document, I don't consider complete. Barr is throwing his legal weight around and does so at the expense of the American people when they have a right to know the dangers of foreign powers against the USA.
I believe Barr has shut down the operations of the Special Counsel by challenging the basis of the formation of the Special Counsel including the filing of FISA documents to provide a venue to accumulate information regarding such Russian assault. The assault existed. There is no doubt about it. The assault also proved to be concentrated with the Trump Campaign. That is absolutely obvious. The Russians were openly solicited by Donald J. Trump himself. The basis for the Special Counsel is rock solid. The FISA warrants involve members of that campaign and KNOWN Russian operatives. There is nothing wrong with the FISA warrants or the information accumulated because of those warrants.
This is an Attorney General that bends a knee in loyalty, as he has done in prior Executive Branch administrations, to a President under siege with a campaign that solicited Russian operatives to act against the sovereign state of the United States of America.
There is plenty of evidence and in reading the report of the Special Council there are mountains of evidence that spreads around the world. Barr can't undo that for the convenience of a bad president.
Barr is corrupt and he is corrupting this government. The Special Counsel is filled wall to wall of highly qualified professionals that have written a document that is 488 pages long with profound findings. Within that document, which spans two volumes, are introductions and executive summaries that damn the involvement of a campaign too attached to Russia and outcomes with Russia.
While the Special Council found individuals indictable and carried out successful trials and pleas to shut down the assault against the USA BY RUSSIA and it's finanicial influence (which is known to work because of the Citizens' United decision) there remains a breach in completing the task in the DOJ's lame policy that an obviously corrupt president can't be indicted. I understand the reasoning of the DOJ policy for fear of frivolous proceedings by some of the finest legal minds in the country, however, there remains obvious corruption. It is completely obvious. There is no doubt. A presidential candidate can't yell out to Russia for help at a news conference where cameras and journalists are recording every moment and not be found to be corrupt. That is just one instance.
The Special Counsel submitted a report that CANNOT BE REWRITTEN because it is politically inconvenient. That is what Barr is trying to do. The US House needs to bring the highly qualified Special Counsel, including the highly esteemed Robert Mueller, before the court to end the sham that is Bill Barr.
