Despite Bill Barr’s repeatedly voicing concerns about Donald Trump, he has now said he will vote for him again this November

Bill Barr has claimed Donald Trump often suggested executing his political rivals during heated moments of his four-year tenure in the White House.

Former White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin told The View back in December that Mr Trump once called for a staff member to be put to death for leaking a story about the then-president going down to a bunker during Black Lives Matter protests in summer 2020.

Former Trump administration attorney general Mr Barr was asked about the claims during an interview on CNN last week.

    All this completely ignores corporate greed ruining the planet. You’re talking about social issues. These are just the carrots that they (the owners) dangle in front of you to appease you every so many years. This is not a path towards utopia (which is currently completely feasible). This is just social progress.

    You think they’re ever going to just allow themselves to be dethroned?

    I’m 50. I’ve been watching this shit show closely since 9/11. Let me tell you, this is all just progress theater. Protests on campus? lol. They don’t care. They’ll just use it to justify more authoritarianism. They’ll let you show your activism on social media until you get bored of it, finally cave in and become another cog in the machine.

    None of you are any different from the hippies in the 60’s. They will infantilize you in the media (they already are) and move on. Slow progress is just the status quo now. None of it will stop the next near extinction event that is coming.
