We’re getting an advance look at the hysteria that will greet the release of the Mueller report in the freakout over Bill Barr’s press conference. I don’t understand why it’s supposed to be an outrage for the attorney general of the United States to hold a press conference shortly prior to releasing a hotly anticipated report produced by his Justice Department, but here we are. We learned this morning that Barr will explain the process handling the report — his interactions with the White House, his redactions, etc. — which makes the anger, fear, and loathing even more bizarre.


There will be much more where that came from.
