  • Why is Bill Barr not being prosecuted? ... Where is Merrick Garland? ... Does The United States of America have an Attorney General?
  • @xelamercedes
    It felt weird and smelled funny to many of us who were paying attention at the time but what could we do about it? How does a mere citizen sound an alarm that something skanky is going on at the DOJ? THIS is one more reason a free press is so important. Thank you, Rachel, for being our voice on a high profile platform.
  • @JO-tg6xm
    Why on earth has Bill Bar not faced any accountability. Instead he is trying to rehabilitate himself on TV and being allowed to do so. Where o where are though Justice surely lady you can’t be that blind.
  • @danskhansen
    What would the Mueller Report have looked like had Barr not intervened ... ?
  • @myrtlegoosh
    Yes she is so right on. We were smothered with so much corruption it overwhelmed the system. Accountability needs to prevail instead of the normalization of crookedness.
  • @selftaopath
    Before I listen to your video Rachel I'll say what I've said for years. Wm. Barr ought to be investigated and then most surely be indicted.
  • Sounds like rather than draining the swamp they replaced swamp water with sewage.
  • @mikemann1638
    It's called corrupting the legal system to cover up your own crimes and getting away with it
  • Brilliant. Thank you. I remember this all happening at the time. Finally it gets called out. Bill Barr has plenty to answer for.
  • Assuming that this is true some former members of The U.S. Department Of Justice should be sued or prosecuted,
  • @G-childInc
    It’s time bill Barr faces justice . He was a despicable human being
  • @neale3871
    Justice Department opinion not rules. This opinion from the 1970's needs to be questioned.
