Blumenthal: Barr ‘Is Part of a Pattern of Political Interference’

February 14, 2020

Friday on CNN’s New Day, Sen. Richard Blumenthal called on Attorney General William Barr to resign because he was “part of a pattern of political interference in the Department of Justice.”

“My reaction is what the attorney general is really saying is, ‘I know what President Trump wants. I’m going to do exactly what Trump wants. I just wish he wouldn’t tweet about it because it is so embarrassing,’” Blumenthal said. “The attorney general was facing a full-scale revolt within the Department of Justice as a result of the political interference, the over-personal influence by Donald Trump in favor of one of his friends and political cronies, Roger Stone.”

“What the attorney general could have said to satisfy me is that he was resigning,” he added. “I called for his resignation. I think that he is part of a pattern of political interference in the Department of Justice that is absolutely intolerable.”

The Dems are gearing up for another impeachment.
