Former Attorney General Bill Barr’s Department of Justice reportedly did not launch a single investigation into the credible claims of widespread voter fraud that plagued the 2020 election, instead presiding over the agency as it flatly ignored his commands.
Jeffrey Clark, formerly an official in the Trump White House, revealed the news during an appearance on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” show. Clark, now Director of Litigation for the Center for Renewing America, said FOIA requests have revealed Barr did not preside over a single investigation despite ordering his subordinates to investigate.
“After Bill Barr had issued a November 9 memo saying that there should be investigations of the election,” Clark explained, “the FOIA document requests have come back with no documents – the null set, Steve – so no investigations were done as a result of that memo.”
He added, “It’s like a kabuki dance, a memo was issued but nothing was actually done about it.”
Clark says his team sent FOIA requests to 12 districts within battleground states, and have received 11 back so far that reveal the absence of any investigation. He is still waiting to hear back from then Eastern District of Pennsylvania, which includes Democrat stronghold city Philadelphia.
As Clark noted, Barr issued a memo on November 9, 2020 – only days after the 2020 election – that compelled federal investigators to investigate fraud claims. Only one month later, despite apparently not having launched or been briefed on a single investigation, Bannon appeared on CNN and told the hyper partisan left wing network that there was no significant election fraud.
Despite the apparent total lack of investigation, Barr declared there was no fraud “on a scale that could have affected the outcome of the election.”
More recently, Barr made himself an enemy of Trump by continuing to advance his apparently baseless claims insisting the election was not stolen.
In his latest insult to Trump and his supporters, Barr dismissed the findings of Dinesh D’Souza and True The Vote, which were presented in the landmark movie “2000 Mules”.
“You know, when I went into this and would, you know, tell [Trump] how crazy some of these allegations were, there was never, there was never, an indication of interest in what the actual facts were,” Barr said, laughing at the former president.
“My opinion then and my opinion now is that the election was not stolen by fraud,” Barr insisted. “I haven’t seen anything since the election that changes my mind on that, including the ‘2000 Mules’ movie,” he added, with more laughter.
NEW – Bill Barr: "The election was not stolen by fraud. And I haven't seen anything since the election that changes my mind on that, including the '2000 Mules' movie."pic.twitter.com/TDU7OgPpNP

I think he spent most of his time at the Congressional snack bar. He sure as hell didn’t do much else. Never liked the guy, too wishy washy.

I don’t think that Barr’s opinion is worth much. He believes that voter fraud would not change the election. Yet, in swing states, many irregularities were found. I think that Barr’s main purpose was to make sure that his fellow employees of the Deep State would remain. He never cared very much for Trump and probably believed he was not “good for the Country.”
OK, he has a right to his opinion. But his opinion in that regard has no more value than you or me.

How Many of the mules in the 2000 mules movie have been contacted and investigated by law enforcement. Virtually none I suspect. A disgrace to our country , law enforcement and free and fair elections.

Always supported Barr but burying his head in the sand and claiming you don’t see anything is asinine. There is much evidence in the public domain already. Imagine if someone actually looked into the fraud. Barr is the problem, obviously not a solution. If stealing a presidential election isn’t worth investigating then nothing is worth investigating. God help our country.

Barr, a worthless piece of shit. I’m surprised he’s not in the Biden administration. He’d fit right in.

Tell us something that every single American does not ALREADY KNOW. When are we going to stop pointing fingers and do something about it? When Justice fails, who prevails? Take a gander at our own American (not US) Organic Law. Not only does it provide our very first endowed Right of a Citizen, it also gives us the directive to resolve the aforementioned failure of Justice. It is the Declaration of Independence. Here is the meat and taters of it.
–That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–
Does this make me an Insurrectionist? You damn straight it does. Like our Founding Fathers, and the Colonials (my Ancestors) who rose up against tyranny, every Freedom Loving American is an Insurrectionist. Be PROUD of that Badge of Honor.

EXACTLY RIGHT!!!!! Look to the Constitution FIRST, LAST AND ALWAYS. Our founding fathers had amazing gifts of foresight and eloquently put it down in reasonable order and understanding that government’s are corrupt. They all came from a time/place where peons worked the kings fields and were lucky to survive. Our country was formed to put THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE. Now, LET’S TAKE CHARGE! Time to clean up our powerful departments, cut the number employees in every dept by 2/3rds, let WE THE PEOPLE do what we do best, build an economy that is 2nd to none.

Hitler and his cronies laid the same claims as his early Nazis Party of thugs (blm-antifa) laid claim to a seat in the Reich Chancellery. Those same claims of being on the up-and-up would be made as Hitler and his Nazis took complete control of the Chancellery after the Reichstag fire.

Right. There was only fraud visible from Pluto in 6 cities and dumped only about 4,000,000 votes. With nearly 20,000 cities in the U.S., how much difference could 6 cities posibly make?
