UU. votara por un estrecho margen para confirmar a William Barr como Fiscal General:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cLa &#039;solicitud de trabajo&#039; de Barr para el cargo de Fiscal General era un memorando no solicitado que atacaba al fiscal especial y argumentaba que un presidente no puede cometer obstrucci\u00f3n de la justicia. Se supone que un Fiscal General es un defensor de la justicia, no la Tarjeta de Salir de la C\u00e1rcel Gratis del Presidente.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJusticia significa que todo individuo es igual ante la ley. Pero Barr cree que el presidente Trump est\u00e1 por encima de la ley. Su ascenso para dirigir el departamento que se supone debe luchar por la igualdad de justicia es alarmante y muy inapropiado.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEl Senado cometi\u00f3 un gran error hoy.
