    More than 1,110 former Justice Department officials who served in Republican as well as Democratic administrations posted a statement Sunday calling on Attorney General Bill Barr to resign.

    "Mr. Barr's actions in doing the President's personal bidding unfortunately speak louder than his words. Those actions, and the damage they have done to the Department of Justice's reputation for integrity and the rule of law, require Mr. Barr to resign. But because we have little expectation he will do so, it falls to the Department's career officials to take appropriate action to uphold their oaths of office and defend nonpartisan, apolitical justice," the officials wrote in a statement

    https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/16/politics/prosecutors-doj-officials-barr-resign/index.html

    ___________

    Barr should obviously resign. But, of course, he won't.

    These 1,100+ America-Loving Patriots were Spot-On about the disgraceful conduct at DOJ.

    Barr's DOJ lacks independence from Trump and totally lacks integrity as Barr functions as Trump's Personal lawyer. Barr Should Resign.

    Thoughts?

    Trump isn't going to be Pres forever, and Barr has not helped Trump's image. Should they be stupid enough to go after political rivals, after they leave office, they would be susceptable to numerous investigations themselves.

    :roll: Yes, not prosecuting a single participant of those who lied to this country is doing Trump's bidding. Have we even HEARD of an indictment on Clinesworth yet. He was openly OUTTED for fraudulently altering evidence. That's a FELONY.

    Obviously, and Agreed.

    Which gives even greater urgency to the fact that Trump MUST be Defeated.

    Before the USA plunges even deeper into being a Full-Fledged Dictatorship.

    Democrats are above the law. They don't even pretend anymore.

    Democrats always create narratives like this. 500 people say this, 1000 people say that.

    Barr has done nothing illegal, immoral, or unethical.

    What a bunch of liberal whiners.

    Correct.

    They quote crap like, "90% of the delegates to the Democratic convention think Barr should go". No one gives a sh-t about that.

    Hahaha. The DOJ has about 110,000 - 120,000 employees. 1% of people are upset....probably because they liked Mr. Fast 'N Furious Arms Holder or Meet-Me-On-A-Plane Lynch more than they like a straight-shooter like Barr.

    So any and all "Political Rivals" can do what they want and they can not be investigated? Nice precedent you want to set.

    Holy crap, the left found an additional 725 prosecutors since the Mueller Report.

    375 former prosecutors say trump would be indicted for Obstruction if not for DOJ policy

    Here is the story from 2019 with the nearly the same exact list of people.

    https://medium.com/@dojalumni/statement-by-former-federal-prosecutors-8ab7691c2aa1

    "Each of us believes that the conduct of President Trump described in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report would, in the case of any other person not covered by the Office of Legal Counsel policy against indicting a sitting President, result in multiple felony charges for obstruction of justice".

    So, they're not "1,100+ America-Loving Patriots" at all.

    Since this is a deal coming from Trump haters, one has to wonder how many of those current and former prosecutors are aware that they signed the statement......if they're even still alive.

    Yeah, I would bet you a decent amount of money anybody willing to sign onto this document wouldn't be caught dead (always a distinct possibility) working for Trump...

    Let's say Barr resigns... Trump is going to choose his replacement from THIS list??

    You crack me up....

    What is interesting is that career people in the DOJ were shocked at the sentencing recommendation by the prosecutors of Stone. That is who alerted Barr about the matter. It was totally an out of whack recommendation. And likely was done on purpose to stir up another coup attempt, that is rather obvious.

    As an example, James Wolfe got two months for lying to the FBI. Prosecutors asked for 2-years because of who he was and what he leaked.
