*Will Ginsberg now Appear, or her body double* 😂😂😂

[veramann]

I wonder if the American Bar Association and other organizations can punish William Barr after he leaves office.

[dantheface]

if Peter Griffin and Steve Bannon had a love child

It's been one week and Bill's job seems like its getting harder by the day, But Bill can do his job well and we have faith he can get to the bottom of all this mess in the justice department

[vreelandgardner]

I watched the news tonight, and this story was totally overlooked

This was a very important move made today, if you had watched Barr in the hearings he is smart, fearless, and wont take $hit

If I was Obama, I would be getting nervous

Nice of Time to give this news 30 seconds. If it were a corrupt democrat they would have devoted all day to it.

[Chris-jmzk]

Who’d he sleep with to get the office, oh wait that was Kamala.

[limited]

What 45 voted nay? Who would you rather have? Someone who ignores the law? We've done that. It's over.

[nogodsnomasters]

Down with the U.S Government. I'm going to implement my own. I shall call Democracy. Does this work for everyone else?

[muellertrumpsbane]

The honorable Robert Muellers close personal friend is AG, God bless America

[WuFluChan]

Did they just confirm someone without looking at all of their kindergarten through college yearbooks first ohhh nooo

[stephss]

Now to throw Whitaker in jail for lying to Congress.
