20191210: Barr Interview with Pete Williams of MSNBC

Hi, folks. You guys are terrific. We’ve been hunting for a “whole interview” video all afternoon. Thank you for pitching in to help! Here’s the whole thing.

And here is the interview with WSJ (YUGE hat tip to FLEP for finding it!)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=CUYAt6D13FI&feature=emb_logo
Watch to the point where he flashes a big grin…. he’s talking about putting people in jail, and… it takes a little time.

You’re going to hear a LOT about these BILL BARR interviews with MSNBC and WSJ. I got a heads up on the MSNBC one, and it only finished about 5 minutes ago. Watched the portion of WSJ interview run by FOX. All I have NOW are my notes, posted below. We will post the full clip and transcript when it becomes available. MSNBC will not release the full video and they’re playing games on the interview – yeah, it was that bad —- for them. We’re piecing the interview together as best as we can. Please pardon typos on my pseudo transcript, I was going as quickly as I could.

The second piece can only be seen here: https://therightscoop.com/watch-ag-bill-barr-drops-some-cold-hard-truth-on-origins-of-russia-investigation-in-msnbc-interview/

Third Piece < “Oh of course they were spied on”
Fourth Piece
Fifth Piece – Durham as opposed to the IG Investigation
Extra Piece.

Thank you, Dep! Here is a TEN MINUTE fuzzy version from Breitbart, still not the whole thing but much better. https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2019/12/10/ag-barr-fbi-ignored-exculpatory-evidence-hid-information-to-continue-trump-investigation/ NOTE: In the Breitbart piece, Barr is quoted as saying, “we’re going to put people in there and rile them up”, but that’s not what Barr said. Barr said, “… we’re going to put people in there and WIRE THEM UP…”

Rest assured, Barr just slapped the media, the FBI, the Dems, the Russians, everyone, and completely defended the President. It was epic.

Whole thing started…. how?

Flimsy

A suggestion of a suggestion from a 28yr old campaign worker, that Russians MAY have Hillary’s emails. Well, look what was going on in May of 2016, many reports that Russian hacked her server in 2014. Press accounts were all over the place…….. and they jumped right into a full scale investigation, very intrusive technics, because of a suggestion of a suggestion IN A BAR.
Inexplicable that they talked to the RUSSIANS and not to the campaign.
Excoriates Brennan who confronted the head of Russian secret service, and OBama talked to Putin, said cut it out.

BUT they never talked to the campaign. Why not?

Talking about the “non-bias” and how it’s really not investigated by the OIG.
You have to wait for the full investigation by Durham.
He can compel people to testify.
Horowitz just asked them if they were biased and if he did not find contradictory testimony, then he was done.
Premature to make any judgement now.
Question — they opened an investigation but no one was really harmed.

From Barr: We’re going to put people in there and wire them up and then we’ll get the truth.
Not ONE piece of incriminatory evidence that came in, in fact it was exculpatory.
FBI ignored it
withholds it from the court
all while it gets more warrants.
clear cut evidence that the Dossier was a complete sham from more evidence collected

After January the whole case collapsed.
All speculation
Zero information to support it
What did they do?
They kept on investigating the President
Not only did they NOT tell the Court, they added OTHER stuff , made up stuff, to bolster their dossier proof.

Opens the possibility to infer BAD FAITH
To early to tell (wink), but Durham is working on it.

Question – all kinds of bias, political, institutional,
Barr – I don’t want to say. Horowitz focuses on the FBI, but there was a lot going on around the FBI

Question: Do you still maintain….. Was the campaign spied upon
From barr: Oh, clearly they were spied upon !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FISA allow to go BACK, emails, months and even years, that’s why they went for a FISA for retroactive accumulating of material

Actually preceded July.

Some things done during the investigating, which Horwitz did not cover.
Durham is also exploring what Happened AFTER january, withholding info from court.
He’s the President of the USA, what was their motivation? (why did they continue)

Why did you go to three countries with Durham.
Answer from Barr: Press reporting on this has been silly. a US Atty does not just show up on the doorstep of a government, have to introduce, ambassadors involved, establish ground rules, perfectly appropriate.

Question: was it appropriate for Durham to issue a statement yesterday
Barr: Absolutely, didn’t want the public to think the predication of the FBI investigation was cleared. Durham needed to make it clear. (slams media again)

Are you confident Wray can fix the FBI? In light of Trump’s tweet.
practically speaking, i think Wray has worked hard to correct the problems of the past, new team, old tean is not there.
Cannot ignore the abuses of the past.
Have to focus on getting it right
So you have confidence in Wray?
Yes

People will think and say you’re just defending Trump
I think our nation was turned on it’s head for three years, in large part by an irresponsible press
FISA abuses.
Protect against the abuse of the FBI
That’s my responsibility

Were you ever asked to talk to anyone in Ukraine about a Server?
No
I haven’t gotten into the Ukraine yet
I don’t know
I haven’t even looked into it frankly

DOJ Criminal Division career employees said Whistle Blower complaint about campaign finance was looked t and determined to not hold merit

Was it a terrorist act in Pensacola?
Not discussing details of investigation…..
We are satisfied with cooperation we are getting

Comment on police address – if people don’t support their police, they might find themselves without the protection needed. We’re in a full employment economy.. Every police dept is understaffed. high suicide rate, unless we change we’re not going to have enough police.
But you’re not saying people shouldn’t criticize the police when they do something wrong?
No.

Talking about patience and the need for answers NOW……
I know, I know, but we cannot cut corners on collection of evidence.
You know that.
I see us reaching a
Reaching a watershed, in lte spring or early summer……..
DURHAMMMMMMMMMM

Daughn’s notes, not perfect transcription but as close as possible

Barr is NOW doing another interview with the WSJ. We will post both interview when available.

From the WSJ interview, tone was much more friendly and Barr was not as cutting and sarcastic. They went over the same topics and similar answers.

One exception: In the WSJ interview, Barr said Brennan (himself) called the head of the FSB in Russia on August 4th, and again later in August (2016). Obama called (himself) in September of 2016 and told Putin, “we know what you’re doing, stop it”

But they never talked to the campaign.

Talk about film at eleven highlights!

pgroup

Well, he is a rump ranger so fainting would be quite a drama queen moment for him.

Teagan

“Rump ranger” 😂😂. New one for me…sitting here in my little bubble

Teagan

Totally off topic here, but I saw the term drama queen in full force today.
Had to visit the ER for some shots and other stuff in the afternoon…probably 30+ people waiting. Quite an education just sitting there!
Of course, most patients are quite miserable or else wouldn’t be there…one poor elderly man was vomiting his guts out, most were just sitting there quietly waiting to be seen. And then, of course, there are entire families with several kids that treat it more as a family gathering. The vending machines get a lot of business.
So, back to drama queen…obviously an old pro in the ER game. She started moaning loudly and trashing about, saying she was in pain and needed to be seen right away. When it didn’t seem to be working…she increased her efforts And started screaming …some of the others (non-patients) walked over to see what was going on and going to the triage desk to seek help. So, finally a wheel chair came for her (claimed she couldn’t walk) and she was taken back into treatment. Within 5 minutes she was returned to waiting room, placed into a corner facing the street….obviously they caught on to her game immediately. Needed some work on her Drama Queen persona, I guess. She was pretty quiet after that…just some token moans! LOL
Kind of reminded me of the Democrats in Congress! 😉

Wait till all his “buddies” are indicted, we are gonna need a LOT of tissue and smelling salts.

NYGuy54

Sorry about being vulgar, but this situation demands it. Barr is basically saying some big people are about to get fuc::d.
A December to remember.,

realsauce

Great fund! Great stuff!
“I think our nation was turned on it’s head for three years, in large part by an irresponsible press….”

realsauce

heh…”Great find”

Chimpy

Excellent video. Bill Barr is a fantastic interviewee. He gives crystal clear answers and explains exactly what needs to be explained. I particularly like how when he asked something where the answer is, “No”, he simply answers, “No” without any unnecessary embellishment.
The interviewer was clearly anti-Trump, but honestly, I think his questions were fair. The slight negative bias was even beneficial in that it gave Barr the opportunity to destroy the party line thinking of the left.
I highly recommend that everyone spend 25 minutes to watch this entire interview. If anyone is feeling a sense of being hopeless or thinking that Barr is Deep State, this interview will bring you relief.
Thanks for posting! Love this site!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Late Spring or Early Summer.
Well, a few months ago, November/December was supposed to be IT.
Honestly, I understand why it cannot happen overnight, but when “late Spring or Early Summer” comes around, we’ll hear that it would be wrong to mess with this close to an election and it will be after PDJT is re-elected.
The time is always six months from now.
This has to be taken care of while PDJT is in office, or we’ll be right back to square one the day he leaves office.
And though we expect him to win re-election, it would be FOOLISH to assume he will be. We’ve got less than a year to destroy these peoples’ influence.

Deplorable Patriot

The take down can be rushed, risking mistakes and missteps, OR we could all do what we can to inspire overwhelming numbers at the polls. Even criminal trials will take a while to happen.
The problem with all of it is the influence that needs to be decoupled needs to happen at the systemic level in more places than just government and law enforcement. The central banks and cartel control of the money supply HAS to be taken out. Somehow. I have a feeling that is being saved for the second term.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Yes, that’s too big to happen between now and the election. So he’ll have to veto the renewal of the Second Bank of America’s charter next….–whoops, sorry I have my central banks confused. 😀
I’m thinking of the more immediate takedown of the swamp people involved in the effort to take down Trump. It’s seems as if it’s always six months away, and six months from now it will be wrong because the election is coming up. We’re OUT of six month slips.

Deplorable Patriot

Steve, just getting grand jurys on federal dockets may take that long, let alone getting in front of a judge for trial. There’s only so many. Unless they go the military tribunal route, but that’s going to cause rancor as well.
Watching this unfold is going to be an adventure, that’s for sure.

kalbokalbs

Personally good with rancor;-)

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Steve, just getting grand jurys on federal dockets may take that long, let alone getting in front of a judge for trial.

Except that they’ve had two years, already, to do this. And through all that time, we were hearing it would be “soon.”
We’re at the point now, almost into PDJT’s fourth year in office, where “soon” had better be soon or we risk losing everything.

Deplorable Patriot

Mmm…I’m going with the glass is half full, not twice the size that it needs to be.

Deplorable Patriot

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

You seem to misunderstand my point.
I understand these things take time.
I’m saying…we’re running out of time.

Deplorable Patriot

I get your point. I just think there’s more of it than you do.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Then what was the point of showing me TracyBeans explaining that these things take time, if you think I already understand that?

Deplorable Patriot

Just being an engineer’s daughter.
Now, if you will excuse me, I have to go explain to the old man the difference between a rolling boil and a simmer. Again.

prognosticatasaurusrex

BUT indictments and arrests can happen QUICKLY.

NYGuy54

They will probably roll them out. Not all at once. But who knows. Barr doesn’t appear to take any shit.
Get your dancing shoes out. Justice will happen.

singingsoul1

I hope Barr and Durham have protection ?

Gail Combs

Thank Q!

🦋🦋bflyjesusgrl🦋🦋

Thanks for the heads up MQ, Barr’s interview was FANTABULOUS!!! WE STILL HAVE HOPE!
Although yours are much better, here’s my notes. 💞
Inexplicable that F_B talked to Russians and not Trump campaign. IG is limited, accepts people’s explanations as long as there’s no contradictory evidence, DOES NOT DECIDE ISSUE of IMPROPER MOTIVE, that’s for Durham’s investigation to figure out. He’s looking at big picture, more than just F_B.
They Withheld exculpatory info, lied to court, F_B case collapsed after Jan 2017, yet they kept up the lies to get FISA renewals. Irregularities not satisfactorily explained, opens possibility to infer BAD FAITH. Durham authorized to investigate before, during, and after election. He’s also looking at bigger picture than just F_B. (hear that brennan?)
POTUS WAS CLEARLY SPIED UPON.
Documents falsified to get renewals, what was the agenda?
Durham’s statement yesterday was appropriate. IG report is narrow. Durham is not, explanation to public warranted.
Confidence in Wray, but understands POTUS’ comments and agrees, can’t ignore past abuses, or appear to justifiy or minimize them.
Nation turned on head for 3 years based on bogus narrative hyped and fanned by irresponsible press. GROSS ABUSES OF FISA and inexplicable and intolerable behavior of FBI. AG’s primary responsibility to protect against abuse of law enforcement and intelligence apparatus.
Not investigating Biden, Ukraine….yet. Russians interfered, haven’t looked into Ukraine. (Hopefully Rudy’s report will fix that)
Pensacola appears to be terrorist act.

THE MONEY QUOTE:
“Barr said, “From day one — remember, they said, okay, we’re not going to talk to the campaign.
We’re going to put people in there, rile them up and have conversations with people involved in the campaign because that way, we’ll get the truth.
From the very first day of this investigation, which is July 31st, 2016, all the way to its end, September 2017, there was not one incriminatory bit of evidence to come in.
It was all exculpatory.”

GA/FL

MOAR:
He continued, “They hid information about the lack of the liability, even when they went the first time for the warrant. But in January, after the election, the entire case collapsed when the principal source says I never told this. I never told Steele this stuff. And this was also speculation. And I have zero information to support this stuff.
At that point, when their entire case collapsed, what do they do? They kept on investigating the president well into his administration after the case collapsed.
But here to me is the damning thing: They not only didn’t tell the court that what they had been relying on was completely, you know, rubbish, they actually started putting in things to bolster this Steele report by saying we talked to the sources and they appeared to be truthful.
But they don’t inform the court what they’re truthful about is that the dossier is false. So that’s hard to explain.
And the core statement, in my opinion by the IG, is that these irregularities, these misstatements, these omissions were not satisfactorily explained and that leaves open the possibility to infer bad faith.”

grandmaintexas

BAD FAITH…to put it delicately. 😁

Mary Morse

Who is the principal source and who interviewed him/her, and when? Imagine all that transpired from Jan 2017. The trump tower briefing, there’s Susan Rice memo to self, all the meetings with Corney and his contemporaneous note taking. Meetings with rosey and Mueller.
Amll kinds of reasons to fire Corney for cause.

Mary Morse

Mifsud?

prognosticatasaurusrex

Except the investigation DID not begin “on the first day” of July 31 2016, and Barr directly contradicts that later. This all started MUCH earlier, it WILL come out.

kalbokalbs

^^^ MCM and talking heads missing that key factoid;-) Bull Durham investigation goes further back in time, and at least through Mueller hoax.

GA/FL

Is AG Barr giving this interview a sign that the Durham investigation is nearly completed?

GA/FL

OR – is AG Barr trying to counter the misinformation being fomented by the media so that when the indictments and arrests come pouring forth, people won’t be surprised.

grandmaintexas

I’m gonna rewatch it. 😄

NYGuy54

My heart skipped a beat. The storm has arrived.

redlegleader68

Hey Daughn – why do we think he did this interview on MSNBC?? 🙂

prognosticatasaurusrex

BOTH actually, he is countering the mis info AND getting AHEAD of it to set up the indictments free and clear of BS. In other words, the MSM and Cabal will NOT be able to spin this to their advantage, though they WILL try. Barr is getting AHEAD of the spin AND putting a SHOT across the Cabal bow to “not pat themselves on the back just yet”. He corrected the record, and set the predicate for the indictments to COME…SOON…probably BEFORE Christmas.

🦋🦋bflyjesusgrl🦋🦋

No, he said late spring/early summer for Durham investigation.

GA/FL

Thank you, Butterfly!

Gail Combs

Do not forget that Q has said the White Hats will mislead the Cartel. Therefore it could be much sooner.(Or later.)

prognosticatasaurusrex

B I N G O

prognosticatasaurusrex

Smoke IMHO…to give them a false since of security. No reason to “report” UNTIL the first indictments are unsealed and arrests MADE, then they can have a press conference and “report” why the people got arrested (what they are charged with) The “report” will come in the TRIALS…as EVIDENCE.

redlegleader68

We all do know when the next election is, don’t we? 😉

^^^ Clip is a thing of beauty.

Alison

Exactly THIS !!!!
Glad Pete didn’t interrupt A G Barr.
Furious that our media is not only nefarious but most citizens unwilling to inform themselves (shades of a battle right now in our HOA 🙄🙄). Even SD didn’t do enough to educate on IG’s role and limitations – the IG report was NEVER going to be able to investigate beyond its INTERNAL scope nor be able to compel testimony from anyone but CURRENT employees.
Thus the IG report was NEVER going to be the smoking gun. EVER. It’s more like an internal audit on processes.
As I listen to AG Barr speak – so calmly and forthright – I realize how unprecedented every single part of this coup has been. No wonder we have unrealistic expectations and disappointments at missed ‘deadlines’, as Steve laments in this thread.
Only in VERY exceptional circumstances do we see either government bureaucracy or the court system move quickly.
This is an extraordinary interview and Daughn and all who helped to get the full video uploaded deserve a pat on the back. Not only are you some of the best Patriots, but you even scooped SD posting one of the most enlightening interviews EVAHhhhhhhh. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

wheatietoo

Don’t be dismayed by all the Gaslighting that the enemedia is doing.
Yesterday was like drinking from a fire hose.
So much happening at once.
The Shampeachment Farce was timed to be a distraction, to offset the release of the IG Report.
That is their standard MO…
Create a distraction from what they don’t want people to be focusing on…then gaslight the public on what they are seeing being revealed.
The Shampeachment is the biggest Wrap Up Smear of all time.

Coldeadhands

Love the fire hose simile…& yes, the Gaslighting never stops, only intensifies. Too much at stake for them to just roll up the rug.

TheseTruths

When asked what questions Durham will address that the IG didn’t, Barr says Durham is looking at the issue of how it got started. “He’s looking at whether or not the narrative of Trump being involved in the Russian interference actually preceded July, and was it, in fact, the precipitating trigger for the investigation.”
Last night on Hannity, Devin Nunes said this timeline is key. He specifically addressed the July date The Left may be gloating today, but it’s not going to last. Those intimately involved should be very nervous.

prognosticatasaurusrex

Ahem as I said the Cabal have a MAJOR timeline problem.

Bringing this over from the daily thread:

Devin Nunes goes to the heart of the matter. There was a SPY RING BEFORE the first FISA and it was the same people who were spying on General Flynn well before the election.
OUCH!

TheseTruths

Yes, and Barr has instructed Durham to investigate that. 😁 How did the spying start, who started it, what was their predication, etc. The criminal behavior will be uncovered.

geneticallycatholic

Big Question! WHO was running the spy ring. Seriously folks, even though this is deadly serious, (and I mean deadly, because if America succumbs to this communist left, there is no hope for the rest of the world) this trumps all the spy novels I have read..
Your nation is indeed the beacon of freedom, and may that beacon forever shine. …

Department of Justice
Office of Public Affairs
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Monday, December 9, 2019
Statement by Attorney General William P. Barr on the Inspector General’s Report of the Review of Four FISA Applications and Other Aspects of the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane Investigation
Attorney General William P. Barr issued the following statement:
https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/statement-attorney-general-william-p-barr-inspector-generals-report-review-four-fisa
Attorney General William P. Barr issued the following statement:
“Nothing is more important than the credibility and integrity of the FBI and the Department of Justice. That is why we must hold our investigators and prosecutors to the highest ethical and professional standards. The Inspector General’s investigation has provided critical transparency and accountability, and his work is a credit to the Department of Justice. I would like to thank the Inspector General and his team.
The Inspector General’s report now makes clear that the FBI launched an intrusive investigation of a U.S. presidential campaign on the thinnest of suspicions that, in my view, were insufficient to justify the steps taken. It is also clear that, from its inception, the evidence produced by the investigation was consistently exculpatory. Nevertheless, the investigation and surveillance was pushed forward for the duration of the campaign and deep into President Trump’s administration. In the rush to obtain and maintain FISA surveillance of Trump campaign associates, FBI officials misled the FISA court, omitted critical exculpatory facts from their filings, and suppressed or ignored information negating the reliability of their principal source. The Inspector General found the explanations given for these actions unsatisfactory. While most of the misconduct identified by the Inspector General was committed in 2016 and 2017 by a small group of now-former FBI officials, the malfeasance and misfeasance detailed in the Inspector General’s report reflects a clear abuse of the FISA process.
FISA is an essential tool for the protection of the safety of the American people. The Department of Justice and the FBI are committed to taking whatever steps are necessary to rectify the abuses that occurred and to ensure the integrity of the FISA process going forward.
No one is more dismayed about the handling of these FISA applications than Director Wray. I have full confidence in Director Wray and his team at the FBI, as well as the thousands of dedicated line agents who work tirelessly to protect our country. I thank the Director for the comprehensive set of proposed reforms he is announcing today, and I look forward to working with him to implement these and any other appropriate measures.
With respect to DOJ personnel discussed in the report, the Department will follow all appropriate processes and procedures, including as to any potential disciplinary action.”

“MSNBC will not release the full video and they’re playing games on the interview – yeah, it was that bad —- for them. We’re piecing the interview together as best as we can.”
______________
Like just about every other problem created by the enemy, there is an easy, simple, 1,000% effective solution that costs almost nothing and absolutely destroys the Traitor Media’s ability to manufacture a false narrative.
Bring a WH assistant with a camera (consumer grade, pro-sumer grade, professional grade, even a CELL phone would do in a pinch), and record the entire interview, from about 10 feet away, so the subject and the interviewer are always in the frame. No edits, no cuts, just roll tape and let it run, warts and all.
Then post every such interview at WH.gov for the whole world to see the plain, unadulterated, UNEDITED, UNTWISTED truth.
The first few times, do it undercover, so the Traitor Media doesn’t know you’re going to blow up their false narrative, and wait for them to produce their Hollywood fictional account before you post the truth.
It’s so simple, it’s so easy, it’s so cheap, it solves the problem so perfectly, that it takes a genius to figure stuff like this out.
That’s why nobody ever figures it out, because it’s just that simple, and apparently I’m the only genius.

pgroup

Genius? … Okay, got it. Explains a lot.

scott467

“Genius? … Okay, got it. Explains a lot.”
___________
I was being facetious about that… a smartass… see, the point is, it DOESN’T take a genius to figure out ANY of these basic problems. NONE of them.
If our government was a child’s toy, it would be labeled “Ages 5 to 8”.
It ain’t ROCKET surgery.
You can be half asleep and figure most of this stuff out.
I’m sick of living in a freakin’ Roadrunner cartoon full of idiots who can’t figure out the correlation between certain painful death and anything with the word ‘ACME’ on it.
It’s a cartoon, it’s not a documentary.
We’re not supposed to aspire to be Wile E. Coyote.
We should aim a little higher…

TheseTruths

It’s a great idea, I suspect they don’t allow phones in those interviews, though.

scott467

“It’s a great idea, I suspect they don’t allow phones in those interviews, though.”
___________
I don’t know why not, the Chinese have put listening devices in every piece of electronic garbage Americans own, so eliminating cell phones certainly won’t accomplish anything related to national security, lol!
The president can ORDER all of his cabinet members and department heads to record every *&^%ing interview they ever give.
And if the Traitor Media doesn’t like it, then they don’t get the interview and we give the interview to someone else.

TheseTruths

I’m just thinking that the network would want to have control over the interview and how it gets disseminated. I’m surmising that that’s how it might work right now. But yes, we have the optiont to demand the right to also record it.

Well I’m sure they would. I’m sure they want all kinds of things, everybody does. They’d probably like a massage and a manicure too. Maybe some Spanish doubloons? I hear that’s what all the best pirates want.
Who cares what they want?
Why would anyone cater to what Traitor Media ‘wants’?
Has that ever happened in your job before, that people you depended on inquired what they could do to make your job easier? It’s never happened to me in any job I’ve ever had, lol!
Why would “what they want” be even the slightest consideration?
If they have ‘control’ issues, that’s THEIR problem — NOT ours!
We’ve got this all backwards and upside down.
We don’t need THEM, they need US.
The government, by its actions, MAKES news.
Traitor Media’s mission — if they choose to accept it — is to COVER the news.
If they don’t want to cover the news, that’s fine. They’re not news organizations anyway, so let’s all stop the pretense and move on.
There are plenty of other people who DO want to do their job, they’re HUNGRY for those interviews.
So stop calling Traitor Media for interviews, and call the people who want to do their job instead.
Whoops, I did it again, lol!
NO, I don’t mean lip-syncing to a terrible Brittany Spears song — I just solved another genius-level problem! 😂

“….That’s why nobody ever figures it out, because it’s just that simple, and apparently I’m the only genius.”
Actually Rosa Koire beat you to it. She had phone interviews with the Fake News. They did their usual slice and dice to make white appear black….
She had the interview on speaker phone and RECORDED THE WHOLE THING. She then published it and showed what LIARS they were.
Here it is: https://www.democratsagainstunagenda21.com/the-way-we-see-itour-blog/media-smear-rosa-koires-interview-with-fortune-magazine-video
Tony Heller also was wise to their games.
His blog group having fun with a commie (Hopeforpeace?) who was trying to entice him into an interview that could then be sliced and diced. He insisted on a contract giving him ALL editing rights. At that point the fun began…
However you are very correct. You can NEVER let the commie media have control of your interview.

I’m glad Rosa and Tony are smart enough to figure it out.
If only the people running our country were half as smart.
I was hoping at least 75% of the planet beat me to it… that would have been almost enough to give me hope for mankind… almost… 😁
Instead, I usually feel like Charleton Heston, when he discovers the broken Statue of Liberty on the beach in Planet of the Apes

Gail Combs

Yeah,
I know what you mean. It has been pretty obvious for at LEAST a couple, three decades that our government is anything BUT ‘For the People’.
It took me a while (Before the internet) to go from ‘there are just too many laws being passed’ to ‘the evil B@$t@eds in government actively despise us.’

Deplorable Patriot

Great…but check the recording laws in any one entity first. They change from state to state…and the media nets do tend to demand exclusivity in recording. You could be looking at a big lawsuit. If the interview is in the open air, OTOH, go for it. There’s no presumption of privacy.

If the INTERVIEWER is recording the interview, then the interviewee has the exact same right to do so.
It’s a public interview. There are body guards, assistants, producers, aides, key grips, a whole entourage is involved on both sides.

Then they can f*&%-off and the interview goes to someone who wants the scoop. Since when does the Traitor Media get to dictate terms?

I wouldn’t be.
First of all, I wouldn’t give a &^%$, because I haven’t been habituated to living in fear of my own shadow.
FFS, are we all so terrified to do ANYTHING that might cross some imaginary boundary, that we may as well give ourselves SLAVE names and call each other by that instead?
They don’t even need to guard us, we’re prisoners in our own MINDS. We’re harsher taskmasters to ourselves than TPTB could ever HOPE to be!
If the WH lawyers can’t figure out how the most powerful members of the government of the United States can record public interviews without getting sued, then we should just throw in the towel and quit.
America QUITS.
We’re too &^$%ing fearful an incompetent to go on.

Gail Combs

Scott, I get the feeling the Trump people go on these shows with the hope of reaching some of the brain dead. Unfortunately the Cabal OWNS the media lock ,stock and barrel. That means IF you want any exposure at all they call the shots.
With luck some of the SOBs will be facing a lot worse than a lawsuit. (We can hope can’t we?)

“Scott, I get the feeling the Trump people go on these shows with the hope of reaching some of the brain dead.”
_____________
Then they’re stupid.
Flat out. Full stop.
More stupid than the people they’re ostensibly trying to reach.
Worse, to keep doing the same thing over and over again, hoping or expecting a different result, is a violation of basic sanity.
Anyone who has ever talked to a Leftist knows the futility of trying to reach through the zombie haze in hopes of finding anything besides another NPC at the core.
Trying to reach them through the filter of Traitor Media is a thousand times more doubtful.
If that’s the best our side can come up with, then we need better people on our side.
.
“Unfortunately the Cabal OWNS the media lock ,stock and barrel.”
_______________
The administration has had THREE YEARS to address that problem, so if it’s actually a problem now, boo-freakin’ hoo, that’s on THEM.
Why hasn’t OAN been thrust into greater national prominence over the past 3 years?
Why hasn’t Bannon started a REAL news organization, instead of that click-bait fear-porn disaster he ran called “Breitbart”?
And why hasn’t ‘Bretibart’ gone beyond Internet click-bait fear-porn?
But those are all questions for another time, and a LOT of people should be FIRED for not having already answered them over the past three years.
What we need right now is GENIUS-LEVEL PROBLEM SOLVING abilities, and starts by utterly REJECTING the idea that we have no options.
I wonder what would happen if the Administration began doing what Devin Nunes does every time CNN tries to ask him a question?
Devin Nunes: ‘I don’t recognize CNN and I don’t take questions from CNN’ (paraphrasing from memory).
Do that for about a week, and watch the Traitor Media go insane.
Meanwhile, DJT can Tweet to his SIXTY-FIVE MILLION FOLLOWERS as necessary, and administration officials can do an all out ‘blitz’ on alternative media, giving interviews to EVERYBODY who is NOT Cabal Media.
Somebody clever like Brad Parscale comes up with ‘hooks’ to get these interviews to go viral, and word spreads throughout the entire nation in less than 72 hours that MSM is DEAD, if you want to know what’s going on, here’s where to look!
We are NOT hostages to Traitor Media.
We can put them ALL out of business in a MONTH, by OSTRACIZING them, REMOVING them from the information loop.
DJT has the most accessible administration in the history of America. Become even MORE so, only start recognizing REAL journalists in alternative media, and STOP recognizing FAKE news.
It’s literally INSANE to give an interview to Chris Wallace, or Jake Tapper, or Rachel Madcow, or Fredo, or anybody else in Traitor Media.
You can be absolutely sure the Leftists wouldn’t do it if the roles were reversed. They’ve already boycotted Fox News, and Fox News is just a slightly less virulent manifestation of FAKE news!
.
“That means IF you want any exposure at all they call the shots.”
_____________
Reject the premise. It’s one of the first steps slaves must to do, in order to see the exit and escape the mental box in which they’ve been trapped.
There are a million ways to get that exposure, and every last one of them is better than getting exposure by allowing the ENEMY to characterize your message, objectives and achievements.
Every last one of them.

“With luck some of the SOBs will be facing a lot worse than a lawsuit. (We can hope can’t we?)”

I have seen ‘luck’, and it’s always bad — so we don’t want any more of it.
Competence and logic are inherently more likely to return a desired result.

Self=declared “geniuses” aren’t.

scott467

Yeah, I explained that already Thomas, I was being a smartass.
It was humor.
I’m beginning to wonder now though, if I have to keep spelling it out… 😁

Thomas

Thanks for proving my point. You’re ostensible humor was as condescendingly insincere as is this comment. Neither humor and humility can be imitated.

scott467

You got me all wrong, Thomas.
The original comment wasn’t condescendingly insincere at all, it was sharp sarcasm born of frustration — which is a completely different animal — altogether ( <— that's an Airplane! reference).
And my reply to you was likewise sarcastic, only less sharp, because I have no particular desire or reason to attack ‘cut on’ anyone here personally.
As for humility, please allow me to stipulate that every single participant on this forum is a better human being than I am. No humor, straight up, I’ll own that downside all day long.
But I’ll grant you about the humor, I have not yet seen anyone successfully imitate mine — or even try 😁

Guessing here. For months I have wondered how President Trump doesn’t get “taken out of context” when he gives MCM schmucks lengthy on-on-one interviews.
Me thinks, a condition of the interview is, the interview must be played in its entirety. AND availble to public. While for example they can cut a thirty minute interview into segments for TV. The segments MUST be the entire interview.
Some of the interviews President Trump grants are with certified swamptillions. Yea, made that swamptillion up, which simply equates to scum sucking lying dog dung assholes. Abbreviated definition.
Anyway, that simple caveat, must play entire interview keeps things a bit moar fair. Me thinks.

kalbokalbs

The segments MUST be the entire interview.
Corrected. The segments MUST collectively be the entire interview.

wheatietoo

I agree, Kalbo.
Moreover…I would imagine that a ‘condition’ of doing one of these interviews, would be that PDJT, Barr, or whomever, could bring in their OWN videographer to film the interview.
That way, they can have their Own Copy of what was actually said.
Our VSG was in the entertainment business for awhile…and it was with NBC.
So in fact, I would be disappointed to learn that he doesn’t insist on having the right to bring in his own videographer to record these interviews.
😏😎

kalbokalbs

Oh yea. Rather sure there are a couple official video records. One historical and one specifically by president Trump’s team.

prognosticatasaurusrex

First, great job Daughn, it takes a lot of effort to transcribe an interview…I appreciate your hard work!
Second, well, gee whiz all Barr did was basically CONFIRM all I have been saying. Spying BEFORE July, using Carter Page FISA to make all the other spying RETROACTIVELY “justified”, basically confirming that Mifsud was used to plant info INTO Papadopolous to be used later. What’s next guys, will he CONFIRM my other suspicions about where, when and how the dossier was created? Tic toc…I feel VINDICATED…all the stuff I wrote is coming to pass.
OH and he is SPECIFICALLY asked if he was talking to Ukraine about a SERVERby the reporter….NOT BIDEN…See, I told you guys, they give two shits about Biden, this shampeachment was ALL about that server…the left ALWAYS end up telling you what they are doing, they are like a BAD Batman villain, always telling their plot.

Volgarian8301

Now about that dream of yours……😉

For all those that haven’t seen, and are now more confused than ever, here is my complete latest synopsis to Lady Penquin on the timeline problem the Cabal have and that Nunes and soon Barr and Durham WILL be exposing. I wrote many more articles on my blog, but this is simply the latest synopsis. I feel it is worthwhile and relevant.
Enjoy…feel free to ask questions, reply or critique. http://politicalprognosticator.politics.blog/2019/10/19/answer-to-timeline-question-by-ladypenguin-on-the-q-tree

zorrorides

True dat Saurus. Even more than “pressure foreign gubment to investigate and harm Trumps political rival, Joe Biden,” the misrepresentation of conversation is to prevent everyone (including Dems) from even thinking, “Oh, the Democrat’s SERVER is in Ukraine and the Ukrainian President can deliver the SERVER to us, the USA and President Trump, for a true examination.”

GA/FL

Contrast President Trump’s two Attorneys General and two SCOTUS picks with the partisan lightweight leftoids that Øbominable chose.
All the difference in the world!
Imagine what leftist losers Hillrotten would have appointed.

Alison

Hey, remember Flynn’s case was on hold until IG report dropped. What will be next? Can you imagine the load Sidney Powell is carrying right now? Did the IG report help/hurt Flynn or was it not relevant?
There was the IG inference that exculpatory evidence/disclosure was withheld from the FISA applications. Was that what Sidney was looking for?
How soon will we hear from her ….. like sands through the hourglass …..

Full Interview: Barr Criticizes Inspector General Report On The Russia Investigation | NBC News

JW in Germany

I am going to put my opinion of Fake News to the side for a moment (a VERY SHORT MOMENT—NOT an exoneration of Fake News) and state: THIS was an excellent interview! THIS is what I always thought journalism was supposed to be! Ask pertinent questions—-not soft-balls nor questions framing a false narrative—then allow the interviewee to fully answer the question.
Now, I am ending my praise and asking other pertinent questions: Why hasn’t it been like this for the last 4 years??? What motivates this sudden cordiality??? How long will it continue??? In 3-2-1…..about that long???
AG Barr is a brilliant man and understands and can articulate his profession like few I have ever seen in my 52 years—he reminds me of Justice Scalia. I am very pleased and honored to have him on board! AG Barr is not pro-Trump—he is pro-Justice—pro-Truth!

duchess01

Well articulated, JW! Agree – we are not used to this cordiality at all – nor the level of composure and concise answers to questions that – sometimes – were a bit on the accusatory side – AG Barr is an intelligent man who is well aware of the possibility of misinterpretation – he leaves nothing for them to twist – a great interview for sure.

NYGuy54

He’s the real deal.

JW in Germany

Isn’t that refreshing?! I feel fantastic since yesterday!

NYGuy54

complicated business

bakocarl

I certainly agree. I’ve heard negative comments about Pete William’s tone, but since I can’t hear the audio and have to read the closed captions, I didn’t get any of that. Decent questions, lack of interruptions, let AG Barr complete his responses . . . good interview.

JW in Germany

Tone? I guess it is relative. Comparing Pete Williams to Chuck Todd with Ted Cruz—Pete was very tame.

bakocarl

I also liked that AG Barr’s response to several questions were one word answers . . . not “no” and then talk B.S. for 2 minutes more.

JW in Germany

Like I said…reminds me a lot of Justice Scalia. I loved to hear that brilliant man debate the likes of Justice Breyer about the Constitution. It was not even a contest!

ladypenquin

JW, it’s more than 4 years since we’ve had legitimate journalism. It’s been decades. If it had been 4 years, Obama would never have been elected, “Silly Uncle Joe” would have never been chosen as a running mate, Obama and Holder would have been in deep trouble for Fast and Furious, Lois Lerner would have gone to jail for her IRS abuse, Benghazi would have had an accounting, Hillary Clinton would have been forced to resign – actually she and her slick Willy husband would have spent time in prison in the 90’s… etc. etc.
Oh, and Obamacare would never have passed, and we’d still have our affordable health insurance plans, and kept our doctors.
AG Barr is simply a man with a moral compass, a conscience, a high intellect, and a sense of duty to his God, his family and his country. That’s what keeps a society stable – not the decadence, ignorance, lawlessness, and chaos of Democrats turned into Commies.

WOWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He really busted some chops and never raised his voice. I gotta watch this again!!!!!

GA/FL

Parscale lays down the FACTS!

Aubergine

I FINALLY got to watch the whole video!
Wow! This made my year. Barr and Durham are systematically taking apart the WHOLE SPYGATE SHAM, as far back as it goes. People are going to go to PRISON, I am positive. Brennan is toast. If they get him, the ladder leads straight up to Hil-Liar-y and O-bastard. With Rudy working on Ukraine, we might even get Soros the Devil himself.
I think part of the reason for the Durham statement yesterday, and the Barr interview today is that President Trump and his team, including Q, recognize how CLOSE we are to actual hot Civil War. People are awake (they woke us) and we are pissed! This shit is not going to be swept under a rug somewhere. So they are out to reassure us that we don’t need to pick up the pitchforks and torches and march on Washington.
The PAIN is coming, special delivery from Barr and Durham.

patfrederick

this was amazing!!!!
Gosh, Barr is unflappable…you can tell there is deep and intense dislike for what he is seeing uncovered, but he never lets that corrupt his presentation–that right there? it’s professionalism. I would trust this man to judge anything fairly.
thanks to everyone who searched this out and brought it to us so quickly!!!
AWESOME JOB FOLKS!!!!!

GA/FL

Yesterday – when I did a search to try to find the entire interview – I discovered the leftist media was already at work calling AG Barr a liar and casting all manner of nasty aspersions at this interview.
Truly, they are people of the lie and their brains are wired backwards.
