"Fairly typical errors?"  That dingbat thinks there's an acceptable level of error in authorizing the secret surveillance of American citizens???

This is rich... Eric Holder of all people has the chutzpah to write this op-ed.  Annnnnnd makes me wonder what he is so afraid of? 

Eric Holder: William Barr is unfit to be attorney general

As a former U.S. attorney general, I am reluctant to publicly criticize my successors. I respect the office and understand just how tough the job can be.
But recently, Attorney General William P. Barr has made a series of public statements and taken actions that are so plainly ideological, so nakedly partisan and so deeply inappropriate for America’s chief law enforcement official that they demand a response from someone who held the same office.

</snip>

Virtually since the moment he took office, though, Barr’s words and actions have been fundamentally inconsistent with his duty to the Constitution. Which is why I now fear that his conduct — running political interference  for an increasingly lawless president — will wreak lasting damage.

Once you look into the Jimmy Saville story, you can't go back. It's really disturbing.

Yes it's a tweet, and he's quoting someone else -- but the sitting president talking about the FISC as corrupt/incompetent is still worth noting. 

 

Real reform in the FISC/Surveillance programs is actually possible right now because of what's unfolding. That would be a major win for civil liberties, and something that NEVER would have even been a discussion had Clinton won.

I'm sure Greggy will appreciate this.  WSJ is publicly calling out Burr for his earlier stance on Nunes memo.

 

Quote

 

....

Though Mr. Nunes has now been vindicated by Inspector General Michael Horowitz, at the time he was widely derided. Those who dismissed him included his Republican counterpart chairing the Senate Intelligence Committee, Richard Burr. In a July 24 story headlined “Burr breaks with Nunes,” CNN quoted the Senator as saying he believed there were “sound reasons” for the FISA order.

Mr. Burr was hardly alone in this reaction. But the CNN story notes that he made his comment “when asked about the House Republican memo alleging FBI and Justice Department abuses of the FISA process.” Mr. Burr’s remarks thus played to the press denouncing Mr. Nunes, enhanced Mr. Burr’s standing with Democrats—and by the way have now been proved wrong.

 

When we called to ask if he’d reconsidered in light of the Horowitz report, a spokeswoman said Mr. Burr stands by his remarks and that he will have more to say when his committee releases its final report as part of its Russia investigation. Perhaps he’ll include the words “I’m sorry.”
