This is how not to act if you're innocent

[gregraines]

We voted the Democrats in to do proper oversight. Keep up the pressure Democrats.

We have the orange orangutan as POStus, Mitch McConnell as the turtle, Bill Barr as the walrus, devin nunes as the weasel. The WH is officially a circus!

[webstertippingpoint]

Rod has successfully landed his pension, though at the price of a tarnished reputation.

WTF is going on looks like nobody wants to answer any questions.

[davidv]

Knock, Knock. Barr: Who's there? The Congressional Sergeant of Arms.

[magistra]

Keep it up Democrats! The reason the last election voted you in is because we need you. These are dangerous times and the job of oversight is critical now Stiffen your backs. Perhaps some of these jokers need to sit in jail so that they fully understand the power and responsibility of our Congress

Barr should be thrown in jail if he doesn’t cooperate make an example of him.

So, they lie, cheat and scatter like roaches! 🤦🏽‍♂️🤣🤣

[somebody_nowhere]

Barr belongs behind bars. (pun intended)

[mmerc]

Is ignoring a subpoena obstruction in itself?

[cocoaliveson]

Barr and Rosenstein: "Dirty deeds done dirt cheap."

They attempted to land the plane. It crashed into dumpster fire.

America the Beautiful has traded it's amber waves of grain for an orange middle finger wave.

[desmofan]

I'd pay for Sec. Clinton's audio book of the report xD

[madashell]

Presidents should NOT be allowed to appoint the Attorney General--- We have to change this law. Barr is acting like Trump's personal attorney. 😠

[dme]

The orange circus continues to implode.
