He Will Be Here All Night

Enjoy the comedy stylings of Mr. Bill Barr, everyone:

Barr, acting as the president’s defense attorney, claims that Trump didn’t tell McGahn to direct Rosenstein to “fire” Mueller. What the president said was that Mueller “can’t be special counsel”,”Mueller had to go” & “Call me back when you do it.” See p. 86 VII of Mueller Report.— Susan Hennessey (@Susan_Hennessey) May 1, 2019

“Look, you RUSSIA conspiracy-mongers can attack the unimpeachable integrity of the Honorable Bill Barr all you want, but the fact remains that he never used the word ‘fire.’ CHECKMATE LIBS! I will elaborate in this point later tonight on Tucker’s White Power Hour.”

The laughs keep coming!

Also Bill Barr: “in according with my longstanding principle that obstruction of justice should be defined in the broadest possible manner, this federal judge state judge belongs in prison for not assisting Donald Trump’s brownshirts with sufficient clarity.”

Also, Harris — and pretty much only Harris — is actually good at this:

Finally, we have an answer to the question, “what if you crossed John Mitchell with Lionel Hutz?” Drive the veal and tip safely.
