She didn't speak to RS for a decade after the interview ran. She must've loved this:

"What we are trying to decide," she said over granola and fresh fruit, "is if we did right in coming down here. We're talking about morals."

“We all know in law enforcement that one of the biggest reasons that the senate and (Senate Majority Leader) Mitch McConnell, (Texas Sens.) John Cornyn and Ted Cruz and others are not getting into a room and having a conference committee with the House and getting the Violence Against Women’s Act (VAWA) is because the NRA doesn’t like the fact that we want to take firearms out of the hands of boyfriends who abuse their girlfriends. And who killed sergeant? A boyfriend abusing his girlfriend.”

anyone else listening to the impeachment hearings right now? i was out for lunch so i don't know who is speaking, but both this witness and whoever is asking the questions appear to have no fucking clue what they're doing. not in the louie gohmert way, or the jim jordan way, but literally in the "...i think there was a document...what was it called? supplement? addenendum?" way, and it sounds like two people having an awkward conversation about a topic that neither really knows anything about?

I was watching a bit, the Castor guy went from barely competent prosecutor who constantly looks like he had to poop to smug asshole witness in the Corey L. mode.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 9 December 2019 19:21 (four years ago) link
i see that it's Ashley Hurt Callen, the lawyer for Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee, asking questions of the Castor (the republican counsel for the earlier, Schiff-driven proceedings)
it seriously sounds like a mock/practice session among 2nd year law students or something

BREAKING: ABC News can confirm that the Trump “family member” referenced in the Inspector General report who had a friendship with dossier author Chris Steele, was Ivanka.

Most Americans are flummoxed and confused by anything connected to legalities or legal procedures, so the Republican base will be perfectly happy to accept any nonsense a GOP-apologist legal counsel babbles on television. I mean, they still think Giuliani is a crackerjack lawyer.

"We're going to keep ordering investigations until an investigation produces the result we have predetermined that we want to see" is a curious way to run an agency whose mission is... conducting impartial investigations. But what do I know.

Oh he already made that statement. Kinda dumb to do it simultaneously, now it gets folded into the Horowitz story rather than covered on its own.

exactly, and that's why they did it.

xp if barr delayed his response, the question would be why they didn't immediately dispute it, since barr would have the chance to review it long before it's publicly released
― Peaceful Warrior I Poser (Karl Malone), Monday, 9 December 2019 19:57 (four years ago) link
Trump's most ardent cronies have so inexorably lashed their own fates to that of their god-emperor that it's completely unsurprising at this point to see them do/say absolutely anything that putatively favors him, irrespective of how far outside the bounds of morality or normalcy or legality their actions may be. And to a man, they seem to have missed the news that impeachment proceedings aren't going to result in Trump being removed from office, so what the fuck is it all even for? Just to retain his personal favor?

I'm not convinced Bill Barr's disagreement will move anybody other than people who already believed there was spying to begin with.
This is much more of a nothingburger report than Mueller's, low info voters may not even notice he disagreed.
The article title mentions nothing about Barr here, nor does CNN's. In both cases you have to actually read it to find that out.
Wouldn't be surprised if later articles incorporate that into the title, but your serial cut and pasters that don't read the lede will probably not even notice.

Barr's traducing his oath of office yet again is another good reason why accosting and scolding these assholes wherever they appear in a public space seems like an idea to ponder seriously. It has both its attractions and its drawbacks.
The attractions are obvious. But one drawback that I can easily imagine would be the high likelihood that such public scolding would be breathlessly reported by FOX News as a form of shocking political violence, inspiring their audience to retaliate against the liberals 'in the same coin', except that 'same coin' would come in the form of physical violence. Because there are never any bad consequences to deliberately blurring the distinction between verbal scolding and physical assault.

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) speculated that, should Joe Biden be elected president, he could be impeached on the grounds of the bogus Burisma allegations President Trump has pursued. “You have set the bar so low I’m afraid it’s irreparable,” he said. Pondering a potential Biden impeachment, Gohmert said: “We’ve already got the forms. All we have to do is eliminate Donald Trump’s name and put Joe Biden’s name in there, because he’s on video. He and his son. He basically has admitted to the crime that’s being hoisted on the President improperly.”
