- Sen. Blumenthal (D-CT) asks about Special Counsel Mueller's letter, calling it "an extraordinary act…rebuking the Attorney General of the United States memorializing in writing." Attorney General William Barr discusses his conversation with Robert Mueller and goes on to say, "The letter's a bit snitty and I think it was probably written by one of his staff people." Watch the complete hearing here: cs.pn/2XFOL1P
"Can we have it" - "no" - "why not" - "why should you have it" thats a BARR o gold right there
Blumental is a great argument for Term Limits for US Congress.
He's added NOTHING .. except standing for ILLEGAL'S week after week and doing NOTHING for Americans ! I can't stand the guy and I can't fathom WHY these stupid Libtards keep voting him in. Must be the ILLEGAL population in the major cities...
earthisschool
Blumenthal is another total idiot!
dezz nutz
Why, because he stood up to Fred Flinstone’s dark side? It’s clear that Barr was lying and got caught.
jettsoma Actually, no. No Russian collusion. It was all a scam. A scam with a lot of criminal acts.
Blumenthal is due founded when Atty Gen Barr says NO. , PRICELESS ,
dumbfounded, you mean?
@@bishlap yes exactly, sometimes this thing o mits letters I type. Thanks for clarifying
@@woodiethompson526 yeah, I found him dumb too ;-)
Yes,The best part.
Barr's answer is simply epic!
How dare this liar question anyone's credibility and ethics! He's a joke!
Stolen valor senator.
@Marie Gamalski
Congratulations, you have just been reported to CZcams for Hate Speech.
"can I have those notes"
"No"
"Why not?"
"*shrugs* well why should you have them?"
Barr’s calmness and patience in answering questions is very intriguing. He thinks well for a time before uttering. Sureness is an excellent quality.
Repsychler 808 a seasoned public servant and lawyer. So stoic and unperturbed. Remarkable!!!
You make me smile.
If you are talking to Congress you have to look for traps even with yes or no questions
Repsychler 808 now we know why so many people said Barr is the perfect man for this job when it was announced he was the nominee. Now with Durham they are going to clean up this Dem mess.
@Dan Fremont lying about what? Read the report yourself...
He is an embarrassment in my state and our stupid residents keep sending him back.
I hope ct wise up a and start elect Republicans instead of ding bates demcrate
But he is a vietnam vet !!
@@airscoutborne no he is he lied about it he stop out of the race for Senate when he was caught lying but but ct voters still electing him I'm from ct . I didnt vote for him
@@ernestminnix468 I was being sarcastic
Ernest Minnix Holy crap you know how to spell dude you can’t spell bat come on man
I will never respect anyone who has lived a lie and live on stolen valor. LIAR, THIEF .
Can I see the notes Senator asks? No! Why not? Why should you have them ? 😂😂😂😂😂
badass respond i would say lool
Didnt Blumenthal falsely claim to be Vietnam vet ? And still get elected more than knce?
So, The United States Congress has no right to see the AG's documents?! Does anyone know the Constitution? Is trump a little dk napoleon?! Sorry, it doesn't work that way. Provide the documents, or be held in contempt of Congress. Penalties will follow.
@@Pete_952 so you thi k Trump makes those decisions ? Really? And co plai. About knowledge of the constitution at the same time ?
Are you aware that Christopher Steele was sued in a London court regarding the Steele dossier?
Love this clip I have watched over and over,"no you can't lol 'my words of the day , like a Spartacus moment LOL .
LMFAO HAHA TO SEE HIM SAY NO ( KISS MY ASS), IN OTHER WORDS, YOU STIR THE POT DUMBSHIT
@@dominicksforza3484 you said it exactly as I thought also. Just wait until until Brennan, Comey, Vallery Jarrett, and Samantha Power have to give their account. Power, as Ambassador to the UN had zero business unmasking political opponents or anyone else. Jarrett will be the one found to be behind the spying. They were all trying to catch Trump in this witch hunt. And now it is still going on in Nadler's hearings. What it proves is that President Trump is busy working for the American people, and the Dems are only interested in stopping him. And they wonder why his ratings go up.
"May we have those notes?"...."No"........"Why not?"......"Why should you have them?"......LMAO Barr not letting these a-holes intimidate him.
Blumenthal is the man who lied about his Viet nam experience No?
"the letter is a bit snitty" that smirk after is hilarious
Blumenthal: may we have those notes ?
Barr: No
Blumenthal: why not ?
Barr: Why should you have them
GOTCHYA BEYOTCH !!
Cold, cold,cold.

He didn't have the right, he should have been punished for that.
But Congress isn't proposing we break into and spy on Trump, they want to verify if he is telling the truth. Which he has a very hard time doing.
Barr. Like a BOSS!!! NO!!!! Lol
We love and respect your courage and PATIENCE with these idiots, God bless you Mr Barr
Chris Bragg that is a very fitting tribute to AG Barr and I would like to add my name to that.
Awesome to see AG Bill Barr in Action, Truly an Honest Man!
😂
“The letter was a bit snitty. It was probably written by one of his staff members.” Barr chuckles
Have you seen what is going on in democrats states?
3:38. Barr starts laughing after his 'snitty' remark. LOL!
And he did the same thing when they questioned him about using the word spying, saying nobody in the DOJ uses that term. AG Barr said, "I do". snark snark
4:10 literal jaw-drop LMAO!
Classic
The short exchange 4:05 - 4:10 is priceless. Notice 'the venom in Blumenthal's line of questioning, preceding 4:05, that culminated into 4:05 - 4:10.

iconoclast vituperations we have no right to but it has been made public so go look at it. This “summary” thing with the letter is all a red herring. Now Barr has made it public that he’s going after the folks who have been pushing this thing from the start so the Dems are terrified.
The press got carried away, WHAT, I can almost hear Nicolle Wallace giggling like a perverted schoolgirl while she distorts the truth about Barr's report.
TRUTH☝️ LIGHT💥=TRUE JUSTICE🇺🇸. GOD’S WISDOM CONFOUNDS THE WORLD’S WISDOM 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Out of everyone in DC, Atty Gen Barr is the one I would trust the most.
Andrew lol wow that’s really incredible.
You are an idiot.
Blumenthal False valor about him being in Vietnam. Now isn’t that against the law? Yes it is, he needs to Prosecuted.
Its actually a federal offense.
We heard Mueller, and now we know Bob was never thinking!
Truth Will Out! Prepare yourself America!
“The letter’s a bit snitty” that’s not a real word Mr AG!
Ha ! No, why should you have it ?!??!?!? Ba-BAM, Blumenthal !!!
Told him straight to his face - "you ain't getting shit"Blumey.
SPYING SPYING SPYING SPYING! GET IT?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA why was he sitting in Mazie Hirono’s seat 😂🤣😂🤣.Doesn’t matter,he and Hirono are babbling bafoons anyways!
Oh God this was Savage lol!
Can we age those notes?
No
I just died
Mr. Hon. William Barr, thank you for being so damn awesome. You stood ground for equal justice. You are awesome! Thank you Sir!
I notice AG Barr’s official title is not listed w the Cspan banner 😒
Yes. So surprising!
That's how children show their dislike and disrespect for the AG. They're gonna hate him alot more when he files charges on many of oblamas cabinet, doj and fbi. Buckle up, its goint to be fantastic to see the scumbags that tried to frame President Trump in the hotseat and a few go to jail. Mike will have pleanty of company.
The 3:00 mark is the best part. It’s so funny!!!
Wow an AG that isn't putting up with the BS. Good. Time to fight back.
he's just full of BS
@@stick1984 Just give a few months. Investigations are on going into DEMOCRATS. You'll realize how stupid you are.

At 4:05 can somebody please edit this with the "Thug Life" glasses coming down...🤣🤣🤣🤣 LIKE A BOSS. Hey Blumenthal, he just told you to go pound sand. 🤣 I love it.
Excellent 👍 "No". Boom 💥
Blumenthal is a smarter version of Hirono.
Hose Kim So is my pinky toe.
A road apple is smarter than Hirono.
Hose Kim Blumenthal is an out and out liar. Hirono tries to be demeaning as hell in an effort to discredit her opponent.
Why should you have them? Hahaha...slapped down!
"why not just pick up the phone and call me"?
Um, because if it's written down, you have a harder time lying about it.
No. Just conveniently lose it, bleachbit it, or wipe your server with a cloth. That will fix that dilemna...
@@senorcougar7857 The purpose of a "memo" is to memorialize a communication. Folks who do that keep their own copies.
Why? Because then we can't leak it to the fake news media.... That's why.
NO!!🤤😭
LMAO !! Blumenthal's face, got to love it.
That response about the notes: “why should you have them?” is just abysmal.
"Work product" is not anyone's business but DOJs.
It is why 'separation powers' exists; *Authority* to lead the DOJ department as AG Barr sees fit. Within the law.
Too bad, so sad, members of Congress will be ensnared in their own games.
Come on. The delusion is over. Serious crimes have been committed within our own government.
Political "playtime" is over. Time to get back to running government business.
I think it's a valid question. If Mueller has issue with Barr's testimony about their conversation, he'll have the opportunity to speak out. When you give all the notes to a politically charged and hyper partisan process, you open the door for all the things to be taken out of context. It's better for the democrats this way, because it keeps them from shooting themselves in the foot by making stupid accusations that don't hold up to scrutiny, which automatically discredit valid accusations made alongside them. If you want to convince a Trump supporter to change their mind, it isn't going to be through a partisan process. If congress can't learn that lesson, the democrats will lose 2020.
@@Goodbrew84 Mueller report proves one critical overllooked point: there were no findings of prosecutable criminal wrongdoing. SC Mueller investigated President DJT in search of a crime - (Part I).
Part II: *Theories*
SC Mueller & Team, produced *theories* not applicable to the law, but rather an artistic interprtation, and submitted the report to the DOJ department legal team to sniff-test their creative theories.
Mueller was investigating a man in search of a crime.
Muellar had the legal standing, authority, to charge DJT, as SC (equal to AG Barr - as needed. Report given to Barr ended SC status) ONLY IF a crime was found, and evidence corraborated a crime was committed.
Mueller's *theories* was nixed by Legal department.
Can you just imagine the possibilities of:
*The Federal Bureau of Theories*

~Wittch Hunt
JE Hoyes Congress is allowed oversight authority, but if they want documents from DOJ or FBI there has to be a reason( Ie. legislation purpose etc, for congress to have those), fortunatley AG Barr and Half of America knows that they cannot just get documents to use for political purposes... the Executive Branch is seperate from the Legislative Branch of Government for a reason!
Maybe you should watch “ Schoolhouse Rock episodes on youtube to learn what the Legislative Branch is actually for!
Maybe I will forward it to Blumenthal, and the other Dems who do not seem to remember WHY they were elected to be members of Congress!
andi lee I actually found a footnote on page 64 of the report, and as of MARCH 2019, they were STILL running forensic scenarios on “ Smiths computer program type at the time”, to see if they could somehow come up with a date that he recieved an email, because ANYTHING to prove they had an email BEFORE wikileaks actually released it would have given them something. This is in volume one, where if they had found evidence an indictment would have been achievable!
This leads me to believe that even though they realized as Lisa Page Peter Strzok suggested: There is no there, there! , they still tried to make the evidence speak for the outcome they wanted right up until the day that they completed the report!
This in turn leads me to believe that everything President Trump has said is probably true! Wow! Do you know how many times I have said that “ Trump was actually right!”, in the last three years? Too many to count!
Now, I think I know for sure he was spied on for opposition research, and I believe something went wrong in 2016 that caused either an accidental investigation to get started, that couldnt be stopped by the people spying( or they would be outted committing crimes), and so they had to continue, or it snowballed so fast that their pied piper plan didnt go exactly as planned!
I am ready for some military tribunals now!!!!!! Skip the investigations... bring them in front of the world, and place them in the seat and let the tribunal begin! I have enough evidence just from the research and mueller report to say I would start with either John Brennan, or James Comey....
Lets see how close I am about this time next week or the week after!
i replay this so many times Blumentals face is worth in when Barr comes back at him
Is there any way to get on a conference call
Bill Barr reminds me of Richie Cunningham's father on the show "Happy Days" which was played by Tom Bosley.
I don’t understand why congress thinks they have jurisdiction over the executive branch. I thought they are co equal branches of our government. Could someone explain? Please.
Richard was clinical on those disections. And what words he choose in making Barr oscillates from the inside. Yet, Barr shows composure to the extreme like a stoic until that liberating and final 'No'!!!
The obvious question in response to, "No." is, what are you hiding?
If you are doing the public's business, everything you say in that capacity should be public unless it is classified for security reasons.
Danang Dick - "Can I have those notes?" Barr - "NO" LMAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
How's it feel when the shoe is on the other foot LYNCH?
Love Barr!!!
You seem to love anyone that lies and has no morals.
Nice to see A G Barr totally in charge !!! Nice to see Blumenthal squirm Thank you A G Barr ,you are doing an amazing job. God Bless you Sir.
Blumenthal needs join the Peace Corps, and go to Vietnam, and finally serve as he repeatedly has said he did.
4:03 to 4:10 PRICELESS!!!! **LOL**
I remember my brother and i went to a bar. He got drunk and started claiming Vietnam vet status. I barely got him out of there without getting his ass kicked. Those vets had no tolerance for nam lies.
Nadler should learn from Lindsey Graham how to hold house proceeding.
It was easily the most clean hearing I’ve ever seen. Smooth flow to it from start to finish.
Nader is a pushover and a partisan hack. Graham goes out of his way not to be.
Great answer!
Blumental is like Dracula blood sucker
Why are you waiting for DOJ. Lock him up. No one is above the Law. Lock him up.
Are the voters of Connecticut just as embarrassed of the voters in Hawaii? You have Blumenthal and we have Hirono.
"No, why should you?" Classic.
One thing is clearly evident: Senators are far, far more functional and intelligent than are Representatives. That much is indisputable.
We the American people want term limits these people don't deserve these jobs they have in our Congress
No he will just keep on protecting him
Reptile.
"Why should you have them?" AG Barr takes no prisoners. He put Blumenthal in his place with that knockout question. The man was stunned. He couldn't come up with an answer.
Mr. Blumenthal, answer the darn question! Why should you have them?
WELL? Graham.
I hope prison treats him bad!
I'm sure that's his real name👍🏽
Cant we get the phone records
This is exactly why repulsive, disgusting, hiding their crimes, Republicans will be thrown out of office in November! Can't wait until an honest responsible, trustworthy administration under Mr Joe Biden will take charge and cleanse this abomination of our country.
The average approval rating for the president's performance is at 45.1%, according to the average of polls calculated by the site. The last time Trump hit that mark was Feb. 21, 2017. The highest number his average job approval reached on RCP was 46% on Feb. 4. The lowest was 37%, which came on Dec. 13, 2017.
😂👏👏👏Sen. Blumenthal thank you. ❤Lol @ Barr "the letter is a little smitty, I think one of his office staff wrote it." 😂
no. Why should you have them? perfect answer.
No videos from republicans questioning him? Well that seems unbiased and fair...
The left wants people to watch the whole thing from a few sources who have posted the whole hearing. Then scroll through to hear the republicans speak FACTS and ask real QUESTIONS. But that would make the dems looks bad, so no way man. hahah
The entire hearing is posted dumbasses.
The republicans asked nothing is substance...
@@TheElloatmatt and yet there are no clips.
The Republicans didn't need to ask fictitious gotcha questions because reality is nothing concrete was found by thr investigation and the Russia/Trump narrative should be dropped.
The republicans were not allowed an opportunity to ask questions before the meeting was over. Rep Collins complained about it profusely today when AG Barr didn't bother to show up to the second day of questioning.
"The Letter Speaks for Itself" is an admission to the allegation.
*Allegations* are over. Mueller CHOSE not to recommend CHARGES.
Mueller was well over-paid to do his SC work. There were no crimes committee, in the first place. Separating reality from that fact, is Mueller deflecting the root cause of true criminal behavior, *an investigation in search of a crime.*
*~Witch-hunt*
They're never over in the U.S. Congress
If how Barr characterized the letter is correct, the allegation is bs and this line of questioning is deceptive point scoring. If Barr is correct, it would make sense to use it to defend himself.
The allegation is that the letter does not mention the press - that is the allegation admitted.
I'm tired of the cigarettes if that's what you meant when you are scratching your chin and before I switched over
I love it!!! NO!!!! Lmao
Mueller's reply to: "Bob, what's with the letter"? Bob's (truthful) reply: "We sent the letter so we could leak it to the press".
Nancy Pelosi made this mess
Barr is so calm and cool
Is Dick Blumenthal related to HRC’s Sidney Blumenthal ?
Let the shit hit the fan hard
Since bar is here let him correct his statement if he knows its wrong
Barr’s last reply was pure pleasure!
Heil Trump 2020...Barr's is a Patriot and America--USA
What is it with the peeps from CA. ? ...you could iron that dudes skin out and shelter the homeless.
Hirono is he not the person that stated he was in the Army and he lied. Who if the F is going to believe anything that comes out of his pie hole.
Blumenthal lied and claimed he served in Vietnam. He is a disgrace.
Love William Barr!
There is a new sheriff in town Democrooks
Amen guys x
Ha ! Someone is so afraid the replies were put on paper ( memorializing into all time... ). Maybe all of their conversations should be....
Whatever happened to Jeff Sessions...Who FN CARES..RIGHT...MAGABABY 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸
Let me guess: Now we MUST subpoena everyone in the room during this conversation to see if what they say matches William Barr's account, lest he be charges with perjury. Whatever scientist said that perpetual motion does not exist knows little about liberal politics. This will never end.
That is my Senator stolen valor Blumenthal. Over and over and over "when we came back from Vietnam". Senator Blumenthal spent his service in the USA as an attorney after his education deferments finally ran out.
