Does a bear shit in the woods? The feds were ready to follow up on all the Michael Cohen information, and then suddenly, the case is closed in the famously independent Southern District of New York? Not only that, they tried to prevent the judge from releasing the documents, which directly implicate Trump, Hope Hicks, and David Pecker for the same thing which sent Cohen to jail. The judge refused, calling it “a matter of national security.” Hmm.
Did Bill Barr quash this case to protect Trump?
Clearly to protect Trump.
For his trouble Barr’s son-in-law Tyler McGaughey was transferred from the Justice Department to the White House Counsel’s Office, and his daughter, Mary Daly, was transferred from Justice to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network at Treasury.
Good career moves for them and great personnel placement for Trump.
