In tweets on Wednesday morning ahead of Attorney General William Barr’s hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, President Trump lashed out at former President Barack Obama for doing “NOTHING” when he learned of Russian meddling in September 2016.
While the insinuation is patently false — Obama expelled 35 Russian diplomats and sanctioned Russian intelligence groups and was blocked from publicly releasing a statement about the findings by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who refused to sign onto a bipartisan statement — the tweets point to how Republicans plan to handle their questioning of Barr on Wednesday.
According to TPM’s reporting, Republicans plan to pepper Barr with questions centered on their belief that the work that went into the launch of the Russia probe should be investigated. Barr has already confirmed that he’s reviewing the “spying” — as he called it — that he believes occurred on the Trump campaign.
Why didn’t President Obama do something about Russia in September (before November Election) when told by the FBI? He did NOTHING, and had no intention of doing anything!

NO COLLUSION, NO OBSTRUCTION. Besides, how can you have Obstruction when not only was there No Collusion (by Trump), but the bad actions were done by the “other” side? The greatest con-job in the history of American Politics!

Lord Trump gave his senators their marching orders. Good vassals that they are they will comply. Hearing would be nothing but a demonization of the Special Counsel probe. Barr of course will skip the testifying in the House.
Flim-flam man toilet tweeting.
Man, they are twisting in the wind.
More from the party of personal responsibility. Sigh…
Why Didn’t tRump “Senior” PREVENT DON “Junior” or someone from TORTURING the family PETS before he went out and maybe MURDERED that 13-year-old GIRL he possibly RAPED?
See how easy it is, you lying, traitorous fuck? I would like to see someone with a decent number of Twitter followers start tweeting out stuff like that, give the Fuckhead-in-Chief a taste of his own shit.
And that goes double for the quislings and traitors in the Partei of Traitors, especially Traitor Turtle.
There’s a point where even my own deeply unhealthy obsession with this ongoing crisis can’t stop me from just wanting to say it’s all too stupid and just mostly not pay attention to it. I do hope that’s where I am, like an addict who just gets clean one day and never looks back. You can resist (i.e. volunteer for the good guys) without thinking about Trump much or at all.
