The New Attorney General Is WAY Worse Than You Think In a revealing YouTube video titled "The New Attorney General Is WAY Worse Than You Think," the discussion centers around William Barr's confirmation as Attorney General, a role he previously held under President George H.W. Bush. The video critiques not only Barr's character but also the broader implications of his past actions and the potential consequences for the U.S. legal system.

Key Highlights​

  • Background on Barr: The video emphasizes Barr's previous tenure as Attorney General and his corporate defense work, notably for oil and pharmaceutical companies. This raises concerns about his influence on regulatory measures that affect the public.
  • Questioning the Senate Hearings: The presenters express disappointment with the Senate hearings, which they liken to the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, arguing that key issues were overshadowed. The focus predominantly remained on whether Barr would protect Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation instead of addressing Barr's complete history and possible misconduct in previous administrations.
  • Historical Context: The dialogue draws parallels to past political events, such as the Iran-Contra affair, implying that Barr has been a pivotal figure in enabling significant political mischief historically. The critique suggests that important questions about his role in these events were disappointingly absent from mainstream media coverage.
  • Media's Role: A significant portion of the discussion criticizes corporate media for failing to highlight essential issues regarding the Attorney General's role. There's a profound discontent with media narratives that prioritize sensationalism over substantive reporting.
  • Consolidation of Media: The video elaborates on the drastic reduction in independent media outlets over the decades, suggesting that this consolidation has contributed to a lack of accountability and depth in political reporting. This commentary raises concerns about informed citizenship in an era where media can largely dictate public discourse.
