You saw the pictures! The walls are finally closing in; or maybe it's the floor that'll finally move in on Trump! Or maybe everyone should cool their jets, as our guest Bill Barr might recommend. The former Attorney General joins us again to discuss what we know (and don't know) about the latest legal troubles for the former president. Without getting ahead of the facts, Barr thinks through the search itself; partisanship in the Justice Department; and the kind of fighters the Republican Party needs.
And John O'Sullivan joins the gang at the top to remember his and Peter's old foe, Mikhail Gorbachev. They dispel the lefty fantasy that Gorby was the real hero of the Cold War, but also give credit where it's due. Plus, Peter recounts the time he got the man to scribble on a baseball.
Hosted by James Lileks,

Uh-oh. The flagship podcast has decided to kill Bill Barr when he comes on the show.
EDIT: I was riffing on the "2A" evidence tag in front of the locally added Barr portrait. Follow the logic.
Anyway, I did not realize at the time that this preposterous (that is, not yet made into a poster) image was only a slight modification of the also not-yet-posterized actual image submitted by the FBI.
It's difficult to do sarcasm these days.

Meanwhile. those who pushed the Steele Dossier, held up investigation of "Biden Inc" and allowed HRC to use "BitBleach" are kept in power - Durham investigation got no where and the permanent bureaucracies can keep attacking parents at PTA meetings

But they're rock-ribbed patriots, every single one of them!
Just ask Bill Barr and Andy McCarthy. They'll tell you!

The left wing media would LOVE DeSantis to “distance himself from Trump.” It would give them yet another excuse to focus on Trump instead of the real issues. DeSantis is doing fine without advice from Bill Barr.

A few things.
A. Does the president have the power to legally declassify documents. Or not? And there's no ex-post facto reclassification.
B. This was a Judge's assistant, a magistrate, and a clearly biased one at that, who issued a blanket search warrant. How is that constitutional, legal?
C. Nice snark everyobody on Trump's lawyers. Well, It'd nice to hear a little snark from Bill & the panel on the professional & personal attacks made on lawyers who deign to represent Trump or any poor dumb slob associated with MAGA. Maybe there's a connection here.
D. As for these Professional, patriotic DOJ & FBI staff, witness the leaks, the lies, the conspiracy theories foisted upon us the past six years and I think you have your answer as to the motive for this raid.
As one of thirteen million reformed NeverTrumpers who voted for the man in 2020, its becoming more and more clear who has a stake in the perpetuation of a fundamentally corrupt administrative State. Hint- They're not all Democrats
