Many are cursing Barr in this... That he should have done so-and-so by now, that he would have done X if he were really honest. How yet again, our expectations don't meet with reality.
But think back through the entirety of Trump's tenure. Why, up until just a few weeks ago, practically everyone in the MSM was screeching about how Barr was just Trump's hatchetman, and how he would pervert justice in order to protect Trump.
And now, the MSM has done a 180, and suddenly Barr is brave for standing up to Trump, and they've had a big falling-out, and yadda yadda yadda.
You don't think for a moment those stories were intentionally leaked to the press?
You don't think that was a narrative Trump himself wanted the media to run with?
Frankly, if you look beyond what the Legacy Media is saying, this is the perfect cover.
Barr was the set-up man, not the execution man. Acting AGs always have more power and freedom. They're not bound by the same ruleset, and even if they get accused of acting politically, well big whoop. They'll be gone in a few weeks anyway.
Just like how Sessions set up the Durham investigation (and one other investigator no one has yet identified, but whom we've been told rivals the scale of the Durham probe), Barr provided cover for Durham to operate with impunity.
And remember, what was just announced a few days ago?
Barr elevated Durham to the role of Special Counsel.
IN OCTOBER.
He waited until late last week to announce that, and take everyone by surprise. The media lied and told you that was to protect Trump after Biden got inaugurated.
In reality, that's about Durham claiming the skulls of the enemies of the Republic.
Barr leaving tells me more about Durham than anything else. I'm willing to bet Durham is done with most of his work now, and is ready to move into prosecution territory.
Trump already told us all the next 6 weeks are key. I would not be surprised to see Durham roll out, with Rosen, as acting AG, backing him up all the way, with absolutely no f***s given as to what shrieking Dems might say.
There are always more pieces on the board moving than what we might ascertain at first glance. As a rule of thumb, never, ever trust the MSM narratives, because they strive to keep you in a defensive, reactionary mental stance. With Barr now leaving, my money is on we're going to see full-bore Durham unleashed.
(And that would also happen to jibe with Eric Trump echoing my "Trump unshackled" statement).
Hey, turns out Bagpipe McGee wasn't so bad after all!
It's easy, when you've got the semiotics down.
As to who is filling in, it's Deputy Attorney General Jeff Rosen as Acting AG.
Prepare for Rosen to unleash hell.
