MSNBC host Joe Scarborough savaged Attorney General Bill Barr as a "political hack" on Friday's edition of "Morning Joe," saying Barr was among the worst attorneys general in history. Scarborough said Barr "shamed himself" with the release of a redacted version of the Mueller report this week and in doing has made himself "irrelevant to the discussion and to history." Yesterday was fascinating. I think really the most remarkable thing about yesterday was the fact that a man who had had the respect of attorneys on both sides of the aisle over the past 30, 40 years, Attorney General Barr humiliated himself, shamed himself by just a pathetic performance. And you’ll notice yesterday half of the talk was about what Barr did and a lot of pundits couldn’t focus long enough on what Donald Trump did. And Robert Mueller even said in the report, of course, William Barr lied. That's exactly what Barr did yesterday like any political hack would do. I want to say, though, how ridiculous for Barr to try to excuse Donald Trump’s obstruction of justice, for Barr to try to excuse Donald Trump running around telling people to fire the special counsel, telling people to lie to investigators, all the things he did, because he was angry, he was frustrated because of political enemies. What Bill Clinton was charged for, I mean, again, we’re talking about lying before a grand jury, lying in a deposition about his personal life, so pales in comparison to what Lindsey Graham, who prosecuted that case in the Senate, to what Lindsey Graham now excuses every day of the week. Let's talk about the Mueller report, what we know about it so far.
