Nancy Pelosi got personal with her attacks on Bill Barr after Barr went to the House to testify and ripped Pelosi for what she said about Federal agents.
“He is there to support the president, Donald Trump, no matter what. He’s not the president’s lawyer. That was Michael Cohen, and you know what happened to him,” Pelosi said.
“I never heard him say anything about Rudy Giuliani when he said they were like storm troopers when they went into Michael Cohen, was it his home, or one of his other henchmen said that the law enforcement were like the gestapo when they went into one of the other of the president’s henchmen’s place,” she added.
“I said they acted like storm troopers, and they did. And my colleagues have said that as well,” Pelosi tried to clarify.
But then she crossed the Rubicon and personally insulted Bill Barr.
“He should be answering for what he did at Lafayette Square, it was a disgrace,” Pelosi said.
“So this, it’s really, he was like a blob.”
“He was like just a henchman for the president of the United States instead of the attorney general of the United States of America.”
