William Barr’s not backing down.
The attorney general was already giving fits to liberal lawmakers and their media acolytes even before Thursday’s news conference to roll out the release of special counsel Robert Mueller’s “Russia collusion” investigation report.
But he was in rare form during parts of Thursday’s performance.
At one point in the questioning, Barr was accused of showing favoritism toward President Donald Trump, in part by describing the situation surrounding his presidency as “unprecedented.”
The exchange could be a Beltway classic. Check it out here:

Barr: “I’m not sure what your basis is for saying I’m being generous to the President.”
A reporter then brings up his use of the word “unprecedented.”
“Is there another precedent for it,” Barr asks.
“No,” the reporter answers.
“OK so unprecedented is an accurate description.” pic.twitter.com/5Mkso4BOCR

And social media users cheered:
Amazing. Our press has exposed themselves as nothing more than partisan, uninformed, political actors. Truly disgraceful performance over the last 2+ years. Yet…nothing will change.

Every time the media cross examines a member of the Trump Admin nit only do they show the contempt they have but they also show how incredibly stupid they all are. Their Trump hate has turned them into mouth breathing hate robots.
