Letter to the editor:

Attorney general a threat to nation

Attorney General William Barr is so much more dangerous than the Roy Cohn that President Donald Trump wanted.

Barr has sabotaged the Justice Department to curry favor with Trump. Look at what has happened in the Mike Flynn sentencing reversal, the abject and overt fixing of the sentencing of Roger Stone, the fiasco of trying to criminally charge Andrew McCabe for doing his job, and who knows what else Barr is meddling in to compromise the justice system.

Barr is way more dangerous to the country than Trump, who couldn’t boil an egg without help. Both houses of Congress need to realize our government has been corrupted at the highest level and Barr must be impeached. Trump can’t do any danger because he’s impotent and weak. Barr, on the other hand, could do real damage to our country and our national security, all to keep the baby in the White House happily sucking his Twitter thumb.

I am disgusted and furious at this state of affairs. Barr’s place in history will not be a pretty one, and joins a host of other sycophants — Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Jim Jordan and other zealots — who have abdicated their oaths of office to grovel at the feet of the most corrupt man to occupy the White House in my lifetime. We should all be ashamed of ourselves for allowing these cowards to still be in office.
