The Justice Department just announced a significant policy change that would allow prosecutors to take steps that could affect the outcome of the election

U.S. Attorney General William Barr is greeted by President Donald Trump at a presentation of Public Safety Medals of Valor to officers in the East Room of the White House in Washington, U.S., May 22, 2019.The Department of Justice made a significant change to a longstanding policy against election interference this week, ProPublica reported.

The decision to single out USPS employees and military members is noteworthy, given that the president has repeatedly suggested, without evidence, that the two groups could be involved in election fraud. The exception to the policy applies to cases where "the integrity of any component of the federal government is implicated by election offenses within the scope of the policy including but not limited to misconduct by federal officials or employees administering an aspect of the voting process through the United States Postal Service, the Department of Defense or any other federal department or agency.

Initially, the department announced a "small number of military ballots were discarded" and that investigators had "recovered nine ballots at this time." It added that "all nine ballots were cast for presidential candidate Donald Trump."

Barr mingling in the election. Welcome to the party billy

What makes a human being act like Barr? I guess one could ask the same thing about what Kim Jong Un thinks about when he looks in the mirror. Humanity is constantly saddled by fools convinced they are absolutely right, or simply too much in love with power.

good. The FBI and CIA cant be trusted
