Brian Cates - Political Columnist ⭐️⭐️⭐️: Bill Barr is just reminding everybody he’s not Donald J. Trump’s best buddy and was never his personal attack dog when he was running the DOJ. If you’re hyperventilating over his new book, you still have no idea what Durham is doing. And I’m not here to hold your hand. You should have seen enough over the last five years. Figure it out.

If you’re too stupid to figure it out, what Barr is doing, what Trump was doing a year and a half ago when he was loudly asking if Durham was even a real person, your following me isn’t doing you any good. I can fix that. I don’t have time for dumbassery at this stage.

Barr a traitor? You’re a moron. Do better.

Remember a year ago when Donald Trump was loudly yelling is John Durham even a real person? That was messaging. Of course he knew John Durham was real.

When Durham drops it all the media is going to try to sell the narrative that f** Bill Barr did this, look what he set up! And he's going to be able to point at this book and say what the hell are you talking about?

Five years into this and some people still can't think, they still believe everything they read, they think none of these people whatever lie about this stuff. The fake slap fights were always part of the deception between Trump and sessions and most certainly between Trump and Barr and it's and if people after all this time can't figure that out that's not my problem.

When Durham starts dropping major indictments the fake news media is going to go after William Barr with a vengeance. They are going to want payback. Durham won't be indicting the people he'll be indicting, and Durham won't be prosecuting the people he'll be prosecuting in spite of William Barr but because of William Barr.

But so many people have a strict confirmation bias that when this book comes out they're going to instantly assume William Barr was a traitor all along and somehow by some miracle John Durham is going to do what he's going to do in spite of William Barr.

Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana said during his barn burner speech yesterday at CPAC that you can't fix stupid. And he's right.

CPAC last year was tough for me because everybody was assuming that newly inaugurated President Joe Biden and his attorney general Merrick Garland were going to shut Durham down. That was assuming Durham was doing any real investigation to begin - with which a lot of people didn't believe. I was in a line voice in the wilderness situation.

We just had a CPAC where President Donald J Trump, Kash Patel, Devin Nunes, Jim Jordan and others said that not only is Durham running a real investigation,they expect to see big indictments by the end of the summer. So this didn't go like last year.

I've been saying this for 5 years and I'm going to keep saying it until it sinks in. It's not just one side constantly putting out disinformation in this ongoing information war. Both sides are doing it and so when Trump deliberately puts disinformation out there when he deliberately says something that isn't true it has a purpose. And it's the same way when General Flynn or William Barr or Jeff Sessions or Mike Pompeo deliberately say something that is disinformation for the press.

During his very first press conference as president Donald J Trump told the fake news media the leaks are real the news is fake. He told them this after he himself fed some leakers fake information which was then pass on to the press. You got that? Half the disinformation being put out there either leaked to the press or in books or interviews is being put out there by the Trump team. To confuse the enemy you must also confuse your friends and if you haven't figured that out by now after watching this for 5 years you're very likely never going to.
