New Yorker attacks AG Barr

Democrats (and their medias) hate Barr for exposing the Russia Hoax, and fear that he might do the right thing.

The Democrats (and their medias) attack on Barr for exposing the Russian Hoax and fear that he we expose the left to the disinfectant of sunlight. So they attack the source, because they have nothing else. It's anti-American, anti-Justice and chickenshit but nothing scares the left like an Attorney General willing to do his job and speak truth to power.

27 Errors[edit | edit source]

The New Yorker is known to the left as having the best fact checking in all the media. That's because they don't know better or fact check those they worship. This is based on the Federalists take-down of 27 different mistakes in this one piece, some minor, some severe. But the point is that if they had fact checkers and they weren't purveyors of FakeNews, they would retract and take down this piece, fire the author (David Rohde), apologize profusely, and explain what they're doing to guarantee such shoddy work never sees their pages again. Anything less, proves they aren't a place for journalism, but propaganda.

Here's the errors by Rohde's piece:

❌ Barr recently gave at the University of Notre Dame where he asserted that some of the left’s secularists are not particularly tolerant and that the Founders of the United States saw religion as essential to democracy. Rohde called this contentious, but both are complete true and demonstrable.
❌ The U.S. invaded Kuwait in 1990. Nope. Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, the U.S. (with large international coalition) liberated them in 1991.
❌ Mischaracterizes Independent Counsels by claiming Carter gave us this great thing and Barr led efforts to limit them. The truth was it was admitting by both parties that they had been a disaster, and needed to be limited.
❌ Ignorant of War Powers Act: claiming Republicans were "startled" when Barr suggested that Bush 1 had the authority to invade Kuwait, but should get Congress to sign off on it, just to be safe. (And he omitted the latter context)
❌ Criminal Justice: Rohde's is upset that Barr doesn’t think the poor are more immoral than the rich by stating 'poverty doesn't cause crime' and anti-poverty programs haven't fixed it. Both are just facts that Rohde's is railing against.
❌ Confused with Mueller’s versus Barr's partisanship: not knowing the difference between a Republican appointee and requiring a politically balanced team to handle the most politically sensitive investigation in the Justice Department’s history.
❌ Mischaracterizing Barr’s Memo about Obstruction of Justice
❌ Rohde’s Sources were all Resistance members, Russian Hoaxers, or people with axes to grind: no balance at all.
❌ Mischaracterized Confirmation Hearing and suggests that Barr should have seen his role as confrontational to Trump, deferential to Mueller, and supportive of the Russia hoax.
❌ Revisionism on Kavanaugh: he mentions that some of Kavanaugh's work during George W. Bush Administration was classified, but failed to mention that 10,000 pages + 17,000 pages were provided, as well as 307 opinions, and the quality of his work was never in question.
❌ Mis-explains Barr’s Summary of Mueller report
❌ Claims Trump Demanded Barr Launch Investigation, despite no evidence and testimony otherwise
❌ Claims Barr Should Have Used a Commission to Investigate despite that not being the norm
❌ Questions FBI being investigated for its malfeasance
❌ Falsely claims IG Found No Evidence of Political Bias
❌ Claims Barr Misrepresented the IG
❌ Doesn’t Know That Evidence on Russia Was Exculpatory
❌ Numerous False Claims Regarding Horowitz Report
❌ Describes serial liar and discredited #NeverTrumper Brennan as "a Mild Critic of Trump", yeah, and Hitler was a soft jewish detractor.
❌ Claims Trump starved 33,000 FBI employees by not capitulating to Democrats outrageous demands and allowing the shutdown.
❌ Art contains KGB's "sword and shield" to imply that Trump is a puppet.
❌ Unaware that the FBI Investigation was launched on very thin ground.
❌ False Claims About Mueller’s Executive Summaries.
❌ False Claims About Barr Holding Onto Mueller Report.
❌ False Claims About Durham Investigation.
❌ Paints Barr’s Father as Radical for following rules.
❌ Claims Oversight of the DOJ is Totalitarian.
