"I’m not going to be bullied or influenced by anybody,.. And I said, whether it’s Congress, newspaper editorial board, or the president, I’m going to do what I think is right. I cannot do my job here at the department with a constant background commentary that undercuts me.”
Mr. Trump’s criticisms “make it impossible for me to do my job and to assure the courts and the prosecutors in the department that we’re doing our work with integrity,” Mr. Barr said.
He added, “It’s time to stop the tweeting about Department of Justice criminal cases.”
In other words, the secret back room and illegal dealings are being exposed by Trump's moronic tweets. Trump acts if he's above the law. Barr knows that Trump will thow him under the bus. And well, Mitch just confirmed that Barr won't have to testify about the dirty dealings. But Barr does seem a little bit concerned about having his criminal activity exposed by Trump. Barr's "protest" was a warning shot to Trump to shut up, but you know that's never going to happen..As the White House Turns!
PS
Hope Hicks and Sean Spicer are being written back into Trump's Reality TV show: Who wants to be a Dictator?
White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham reports that “The President wasn’t bothered by the comments at all and he has the right, just like any American citizen, to publicly offer his opinions. President Trump uses social media very effectively to fight for the American people against injustices in our country, including fake news. The President has full faith and confidence in Attorney General Barr to do his job and uphold the law.”
^Wow, the willfully ignorant referring to someone as clueless.
Funny how you believe that the left is prone to totalitarian behavior, yet you gleefully defend such behavior from Republicans.
I suppose you also believe it to be appropriate for Trump to demand that New York state drop all investigations and lawsuits in order to participate in the Trusted Traveler Program.
Trump tweeted phase one of the prayer this morning.
"'The President has never asked me to do anything in a criminal case.' A.G. Barr," Trump wrote, paraphrasing the attorney general's remarks in an interview with ABC News that aired Thursday.
But Trump added: "This doesn't mean that I do not have, as President, the legal right to do so, I do, but I have so far chosen not to!"

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did...
You deserved it.
