Former Attorney General turned book salesman and Trump critic Bill Barr appeared before the Politburo’s Show Trial Committee, errr, the Democrat-dominated January 6th Committee to testify against his former boss, Donald Trump, and Trump’s allies.
During the hearing, former AG Barr laughed at Dinesh D’Souza’s well-liked (it has a 100% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes) documentary, 2000 Mules.
In the documentary, D’Souza and his allies purport to show, according to the meta description of its official website, that there was “widespread, coordinated voter fraud in the 2020 election, sufficient to change the overall outcome“. Fact-checkers, Democrats, and Republicans of the Bill Barr sort dispute that claim about 2020.
Barr, in any case, attacked the film and laughed about it during his testimony, which was mainly about Trump’s belief that the Dominion Machines were hacked or rigged and that that illegality would mean he would have a second term.
Speaking on that incident and what he and Trump were in disagreement about regarding the election, Barr said:
“When I walked in, sat down, he went off on a monologue saying that there was now definitive evidence involving fraud through the Dominion machines and a report had been prepared by a very reputable cybersecurity firm, Allied Security Operations Group, and held up the report.
[…]“‘The report means that I’m going to have a second term.’ And then he gave me a copy of the report and as he talked more and more about it, I sat there flipping through the report and looking through it. And to be frank, it looked very amateurish to me.
“And I was somewhat demoralized because I thought if he really believes this stuff, he has lost contact with — he has become detached from reality if he really believes this stuff.
[…]“And I haven’t seen anything since the election that changes my mind on that including the 2,000 Mules movie.”
It was at that point that Barr starting laughing, presumably at idea of the Dinesh D’Souza documentary.
Barr, asked to clarify his opposition to the film by a California Democrat, quickly went ahead and did so, saying, after claiming that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation was unimpressed by it and that he found the cellphone date unimpressive, that:
“It didn’t establish widespread illegal harvesting.
“The other thing that people don’t understand is that it’s not clear that even if you can show harvesting, that that changes the results of the election. The courts are not going to throw out votes and then figure out what votes were harvested.
“The burden on the challenging party to show that illegal votes were cast. Votes were the result of undue influence or bribes or there was really, you know, the person was — absent that evidence, I just didn’t see courts throwing out votes anyway. I felt that before the election it was possible to talk sense to the president and while you sometimes had to engage in a big wrestling match with him, it was possible to keep things on track.”
Dinesh, for his part, responded on Twitter, saying:
The level of ignorance displayed by Bill Barr here is truly stunning. He doesn’t seem to understand the very concept of geotracking. I’ll address this in detail on my podcast tomorrow

Anyone who knows anything about geotracking—I don’t mean you—can see what an ignoramus Barr is on the topic. A fat guy laughing doesn’t quite substitute for expertise on this topic!

He also defended the film itself, saying:
What terrifies the Left and the establishment is that everyone who sees “2000 Mules” finds it convincing. Even Democrats! That’s why its rating on Rotten Tomatoes is 100% with over 500 audience reviews. Watch it yourself and see why they’re so scared of this documentary

Trump too has praised the film, saying:
“Highly respected Dinesh D’Souza, working together with Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote, just released a trailer to their new movie, “2,000 Mules,” that shows the world exactly how the 2020 Presidential Election was Rigged and Stolen. The movie exposes the lies of the Democrats, RINOs, and Fake News who say it was the “most secure election in history.” It was, perhaps, the least secure in history. The ballot box was stuffed, and stuffed like never before—and it’s all on video. Ballots were trafficked and sold in a massive operation in each Swing State. The evidence is so damning, what will the cowards who sat and did nothing about the stolen election say now? The way our votes were taken away is a disgrace to our Nation. It must be fixed.”
