    It’s a shame Obama was so effete and ineffective and boring. All that truth-telling got us nowhere.NOS4A2

    Well, besides rescuing the economy from the great recession, passing health care reform where over 20 million Americans gained coverage, and so on. One notable achievement that's related to not being a childlike liar, Obama was the first president since Dwight Eisenhower to serve two terms with no serious personal or political scandal.

    The The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 was under Bush. The website for Obamacare cost over a billion dollars. Then there is the IRS targeting scandal, Fast and Furious gun-running, Benghazi, Bowe Bergdahl, spying on a presidential campaign, on American citizens, on news agencies and reporters. Thanks Obama!

    You would prefer a gaggle of social media consultants, PR specialists and speech writers to tell you stories,NOS4A2

    Right. Trump doesn't have "a gaggle of social media consultants, PR specialists and speech writers to tell [the American people] stories."

    Again: Trump is the king of PR and you are his dupe.

    And that alone resulted in the economy that Obama left office with. Is that what they teach you to say in troll school?

    Trump will probably spend half that much just golfing.

    Oh right, it was Obama who rescued the economy. The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act had absolutely nothing to do with.

    So we already have a number of mistruths in only a couple of your posts. That’s Trump numbers, pal. Better watch it.

    You wrote that EESA had nothing to do with it so if there's a lie it's your lie.

    What are the other lies? You appear to read about as well as Trump.

    Judge Calls Barr’s Handling of Mueller Report ‘Distorted’ and ‘Misleading’

    A federal judge on Thursday sharply criticized Attorney General William P. Barr’s handling of the report by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, saying that Mr. Barr put forward a “distorted” and “misleading” account of its findings and lacked credibility on the topic.

    Judge Reggie B. Walton said Mr. Barr could not be trusted and cited “inconsistencies” between his statements about the report when it was secret and its actual contents that turned out to be more damaging to President Trump. Judge Walton said Mr. Barr’s “lack of candor” called “into question Attorney General Barr’s credibility and, in turn, the department’s” assurances to the court.

    The judge ordered the Justice Department to privately show him the portions of the report that were censored in the public version so he could independently verify the justifications. The ruling came in a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit seeking a full-text version of the report.

    “It would be disingenuous for the court to conclude that the redactions of the Mueller Report pursuant to the FOIA are not tainted by Attorney General Barr’s actions and representations,” wrote Judge Walton, a 2001 appointee of President George W. Bush.

    ...

    Among the issues Judge Walton flagged: Mr. Barr initially declared that the special counsel had not found that the Trump campaign had conspired or coordinated with Russia in its efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election.

    While Mr. Mueller did conclude that he found “insufficient evidence” to charge any Trump associates with conspiring with the Russians, Mr. Barr omitted that the special counsel had identified multiple contacts between Trump campaign officials and people with ties to the Russian government and that the campaign expected to benefit from Moscow’s interference.

    Judge Walton wrote that the special counsel “only concluded” that the investigation did not establish that the contacts rose to “coordination” because that term “does not have a settled definition in federal criminal law.”

    How so? Do you just believe that anyone who says or does anything that goes against Trump's interests is doing so in bad faith? Are you incapable of accepting that Trump and the Trump administration are sometimes in the wrong?

    I was joking. Nonetheless, he exhibits the same anti-Trumpism that has rendered relatively bright people into vectors of propaganda. He speculates, without evidence, that Barr made calculated efforts to “obfuscate” Mueller’s findings.

    He read Barr’s summary and read the redacted report and ”concurred with Special Counsel Mueller’s assessment that Attorney General Barr distorted the findings in the Mueller Report.”1 Given the known distortions it’s reasonable to infer unjustified redactions. He didn’t make his judgement apropos of nothing.

    What exactly did he distort?

    The Mueller report was released to the public.
