Opinion | Barr is the one who outrageously politicized the Justice Department - The Washington Post
Barr's corruption management of the special counsel is a legal outrage.

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T


House Republicans are right that politicization of the Justice Department has been a jaw-dropping abuse of power. They've got the wrong culprit, however. As a blockbuster New York Times article made clear, then-Attorney General William P. Barr and special counsel John H. Durham engaged in unethical, abusive manipulation of the Justice Department in pursing the baseless conspiracy theory that the intelligence community had conducted a witch hunt of then-President Donald Trump in connection with Russian manipulation of the 2016 election.

The baseless leftwing allegations that led to the fruitless Mueller investigations was a joint effort conspiracy by the Democrats, the FBI, and the DOJ.

Too bad Durham was unable to find any evidence at all for that claim.

Post must have been asleep for the last two years with Garland in charge of the DOJ. 

Tin horn dictatorships are taking notes on the US current two tier justice system.

Unlike opinion pieces by "The Federalist", "Breitbart", "OAN", among other right wing media?

I didn't say that. Trying to put words in my mouth and then argue a point or divert from my actual comment?

In the English language a question mark designates a query, not a statement.  Asking a question is the opposite of "putting words in your mouth".

So you are saying that a question mark does not designate a query?  I guess that is your best rebuttal.

I'm just trying to figure out what you are trying to claim here.  In your mind:

  • Queries = statements.
  • Question marks are interchangeable with periods.
  • And opinion pieces are only valid if written by a right wing media source.

In your mind:  Thanks for telling me what is in my mind
  • Queries = statements. Nope
  • Question marks are interchangeable with periods. Nope
  • And opinion pieces are only valid if written by a right wing media source. Nope

In order to end this let me just say:

2.2  "Unlike opinion pieces by "The Federalist", "Breitbart", "OAN", among other right wing media?"

rhetorical question: a question asked in order to create a dramatic effect or to make a point rather than to get an answer.

Except I wanted an answer, so it wasn't rhetorical.

Don't expect an answer.  Do expect projection, deflection, and denial, all he has.

Accusing others of projection, deflection, and denial is all you seem to have. One trick ponies are pretty boring.

In case you actually wanted an answer I am not familiar with OAN but opinion pieces on the other two are exactly like an opinion piece on the Washington post. Just two sides of the same coin.

But you have commented approvingly in other articles that were opinions.  The only difference is that they were anti democrat, Biden, etc.
