Italy and Australia scramble to distance themselves from Bill Barr’s antics as he circles the drain

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Earlier this month we all learned that Attorney General Bill Barr had been trying to get the governments of Italy and Australia to help him promote Donald Trump’s deranged conspiracy theories. This has since blown up in the faces of Trump and Barr, as nothing came of the fake scandals, and instead Trump is being impeached for trying to conspire with foreign nations against the United States.

Not only has this international scandal turned into a disaster for the Trump regime, it’s also turned into a liability for the foreign nations that Bill Barr was trying to conspire with on Trump’s behalf. Politicians in Italy and Australia are now both insisting that they didn’t go along with Barr’s idiocy, according to the WSJ, even as their political opponents are condemning them for having dared to even so much as interact with Barr when he came calling with this nonsense.

To put in perspective just how toxically radioactive Donald Trump is becoming, the political leaders of two major U.S. allies are now facing criticism from within for having dared to even interact with Trump’s scheming stooges. At the rate this is going, Trump may have a hard time getting legitimate foreign leaders to visit the White House during whatever amount of time is left in his presidency. Bill Barr in particular has turned into an international pariah.
