It’s becoming increasingly clear that Attorney General Bill Barr is up to his neck in Donald Trump’s Ukraine scandal. Yesterday, Acting DNI Joseph Maguire publicly testified that Barr’s DOJ advised him not to turn over the whistleblower complaint to Congress, which is a real problem for Barr, since he knew he was one of the people accused of wrongdoing in the complaint. Now it turns out Barr is running and hiding.

Bill Barr is conveniently in Italy right now. No, really. He’s on “official travel. Come on, is the United States Attorney General urgently needed in Rome this week for some reason? We all know what’s going on here: Barr is so desperate to distance himself from the whistleblower scandal, he’s physically distancing himself from it.

Of course Bill Barr has done this before. Back when he was lying about what was in the Mueller report, he suddenly made up an excuse for why he needed to go hide out at a lodge in Alaska. The guy sure does like to be as far away from the action as possible when it’s all hitting the fan. There may be another factor here.

Earlier today, the House hit Secretary of State Mike Pompeo with a subpoena for Ukraine scandal documents, and it’s the kind of impeachment subpoena that comes with the threat of eventual obstruction of justice charges if he doesn’t immediately comply. Bill Barr knows he’s about to get subpoenaed too. How convenient, then, that he’s currently on the other side of the world?

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever. I'm asking you to contribute what you can to our GoFundMe Page or our PayPal Page, both of which accept debit and credit cards. Thank you.
