Bill Barr’s DOJ Predictions, by an Attendee of a conference called Government Investigations and Civil Litigation Institute who asked to remain anonymous
Matt Gaetz is out for AG… but Kash Patel is in for the FBI. What a whirlwind the past month has been. One thing is for certain – DOJ is in for an interesting ride over the next four years. William Barr, former AG under Presidents George H.W. Bush and Donald Trump, certainly has a lot of insights about what DOJ may soon endure. He was the keynote “fireside” speaker at the Government Investigations & Civil Litigation Institute’s recent 10th annual meeting. Despite current and former prosecutors comprising most of the audience, former AG Barr began his remarks by acknowledging that the “Deep State is real,” and that the DOJ has been “weaponized” by those who profess to “protect democracy” but are doing the opposite. When did DOJ become infiltrated with the Deep State? Sometime during his first and second stints as AG (late 1990’s to 2016-ish), when he personally saw a swing in the “politicization” within the rank-and-file. Citing the “bogus” and “fake” prosecutions of Michael Cohen and Gen. Flynn, former AG Barr was clear that “some offices,” such as the SDNY, have more “Deep State” employees than others, who needed to be weeded out to “restore the Department”. Ironically, former AG Barr did not mention the political investigations and prosecutions of DOJ during decades prior; for example, the 1960s, when covert FBI operations and programs were aimed at discrediting and targeting prominent civil rights activists. Nor did he mention Trump’s proposed pardoning of hundreds of January 6th rioters, which would seemingly contradict restoring justice and removing politics from the Department. Towards the end of his remarks, former AG Barr offered some predictions, which did not seem to assuage the crowd: (1) greater controls and supervision over line AUSAs and more adherence to supervision/hierarchy; (2) elimination of DOJ programs that encourage “reverse discrimination”; (3) prohibiting DOJ’s Civil Rights Division from “allowing educators to indoctrinate kids in public schools with views diametrically opposed to popular views” and not allowing the FBI to “police our PTAs”; (4) getting aggressive on the cartels and at the US-Mexican border; and (5) strengthening joint task forces to reduce violence in America. Former AG Barr also had choice remarks for “Big Law”: strip out the “wokeness”. He made it clear that he formed his own law firm after Kirkland walked away from Second Amendment cases and “pushed” Clement out… a move, he viewed, dictated by “left woke” associates.

I could not be more excited for the next 4 years. Kash will do a fine, much needed job of cleaning up the FBI. Bondi will do the same with DoJ.
Just today, ABC wrote a story about Kash Patel's phone being hacked by Iranian hackers. This is the classic liberal media playbook. The bureaucrats need to change their playbook, just a little bit. I bet someone started the rumor that Mr. Patel's phone was hacked, and based on just a rumor, ABC has published that it in fact has happened, per "sources familiar with the situation." This should be a crime and punishable. Enough is ENOUGH.
It should be a crime and punishable for news outlets to report news based on unnamed sources? This is the stuff of third world autocrats.
YES. All it takes is some life-long bureaucrat in the FBI to make mention, then all of a sudden it becomes front page news. All while these left wing liberal news outlets and journalists do little to no leg work to verify the claims. Clearly, this is the beginning of the sabotage attempt on Mr. Patel's confirmation. The libs desperately need to change their playbook. It has become comical.
Patel is not qualified. And he has an enemies list. He is a threat.
I love how everyone just ignores the whole premise that Wray has to be fired to make room for Patel.
Is it? Or is there a long history of confidential sources sharing info with news outlets in the U.S.? A crime…?! Wtf is the crime?
Barr has simply fallen from grace. Much like Giuliani.
Hilarious enough, the story has disappeared.
