Republican Rep. Amash calls out Bill Barr for using position to sell Trump's 'false narrative'
Although Rep. Justin Amash seems to be the only Republican willing to consider the possibility that President Donald Trump “engaged in impeachable conduct,” he’s not letting that stop him from making his case with the American people.
— Justin Amash May 28, 2019 After receiving Mueller’s report, Barr wrote and released a letter on March 24 describing Barr’s own decision not to indict the president for obstruction of justice. That letter selectively quotes and summarizes points in Mueller’s report in misleading ways. — Justin Amash May 28, 2019 Barr quotes Mueller saying the evidence didn’t establish that Trump was personally involved in crimes related to Russian election interference, and Barr then claims that Mueller found that fact relevant to whether the president had the intent to obstruct justice.
— Justin Amash May 28, 2019 To “alleviate the misunderstandings that have arisen,” Mueller urged the release of the report’s introductions and executive summaries, which he had told Barr “accurately summarize [Mueller’s] Office’s work and conclusions.” — Justin Amash May 28, 2019 In subsequent statements and testimony, Barr used further misrepresentations to help build the president’s false narrative that the investigation was unjustified.
— Justin Amash May 28, 2019 For instance, Trump Jr., Paul Manafort, and Jared Kushner took a meeting with a Russian lawyer whom Trump Jr. had been told worked for the Russian government and would provide documents to “incriminate Hillary,” as part of the Russian government’s “support for Mr. Trump.”
