Barr ordered violent clampdown of Black Lives Matter protesters (please read)

Friend, [sign the petition: Impeach Attorney General Bill Barr]( [Sign the petition]( Time and time again, Attorney General Bill Barr has proven that he cares more about being Donald Trump's private lawyer than leading the U.S. Department of Justice–one of the most important & powerful federal agencies, tasked with upholding & enforcing the law. And now, the Washington Post confirms that Barr [personally ordered]( the violent clearing of Lafayette Square on June 1st—where protesters were peacefully demonstrating for Black lives and against police brutality. All to give Donald Trump a photo opportunity. [Enough is enough. Congress must impeach Bill Barr immediately. We cannot merely wait until November to vote Donald Trump out of office.]( [Sign the petition]( Barr has repeatedly abused his job to further Trump's petty agenda, and it has only gotten worse the more erratic Trump's behavior has gotten. It is dangerous, and must be stopped. As soon as he became Attorney General, Barr did all he could to whitewash special counsel Robert Mueller's two-year investigation—releasing a partisan, three page "summary" that absolved Trump of charges of obstruction, which the report explicitly did not do. After National Security Adviser Michael Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI, Barr had the Justice Department [try to dismiss]( the charges. Barr also pushed to [reduce the sentence]( of convicted Trump crony Roger Stone, prompting four prosecutors in his office to resign. And now, by ordering the crackdown of Black Lives Matter protesters, Barr's conduct has clearly crossed the line again. As Senator Elizabeth Warren [tweeted](: "Barr should be impeached and removed immediately—this recklessness is going to get more people killed."
