And it's possible that this may be just kind of a flash in the pan. As far as media coverage is concerned, I'm going to go ahead and led link the live feed here in my swell and hopefully you guys can catch it while it's still on. Otherwise, I would watch it back. It's definitely a fascinating conversation that's taking place

Well, that was pretty difficult to watch. It went more or less how I expected it to go. Attorney General Barr pretty much acted like he didn't do anything wrong, and there was no issue at all all. And not surprising. I mean, he more or less kind of denied the existence of any sort of broken police system. Let's say that we currently have one that results in death and injury of many people of color all around the country

Attorney General should be independent!

And this is a huge example of that, I think, and it worries me. There's a lot of things that with the rule of law in this country that start right there. And if that breaks down, I think everything underneath it has the potential of crumbling. I wasn't able to watch any coverage today, but I appreciate your your summary, which I don't think I really needed to watch it. I think that's about what I expected, so well, I appreciate it

I don't know why anybody expected anything different in these hearings today than what they saw. You know, we have seen Barr before. He's a reincarnation of Donald Rumsfeld. And you're never going to get a guy like that to ever admit to anything. And so that's really what we're stuck with here. People are going to have to make their minds up based on the facts and not somebody drilling down and somehow making a full bill bar. It's just never going to quite happen

Nevertheless, I think that the system was based on the fact that you're allowed to ask me a question and I'm allowed to give you a response. The fact that the Democrats were so intent on asking and not allowing him to defend himself is anti what I think the judicial system is all about, and it just goes against everything that I think is supposed to happen in a situation like this

I think that what I'm hearing from a lot of people in this particular swell is, you know, a sense of general mistrust for the government, but also that things are just not being done in the appropriate fashion

Or how did I know that type of instance I got from a G. Barr's little body posture and his facial expression and the way he talked compared to other people like Eric Swalwell, did a perfect, perfect job. In my opinion
