On Easter weekend no less. How are Americans supposed to follow the media coverage when they’ll collectively be biting off the heads of chocolate bunnies?

It should be noted that this is an old trick Barr has used before, when he and H.W. Bush dropped the pardons for Iran-Contra, they did so on Christmas Eve. Although I think the internet, social media, and the 24 hour cable news cycle mean that this tactic will be a lot less effective in 2019 than it was in 1992.

But Barr always has been, and always will be, a willing Republican hatchetman.

He’s going full hatchetman as we speak.

He literally just said the investigation made Trump mad, and Trump acted as someone who was upset, therefore, no obstruction.

WTF?!?!?!?

Yup. He straight up disagreed with Mueller's findings. He's Trump's defense attorney, a role that is not his job.

Also this...

Oh great, not only did they give the WH a heads up about the report, they let them read it beforehand.

This is a joke.

It would be good if the journos got together and collectively refused to ask a single question until everyone has read the report.
