About this listen

INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

The former attorney general provides a candid account of his historic tenures serving two vastly different presidents, George H.W. Bush and Donald J. Trump.

William Barr’s first tenure as attorney general under President George H.W. Bush was largely the result of chance, while his second tenure under President Donald Trump a deliberate and difficult choice. In this candid memoir, Barr takes listeners behind the scenes during seminal moments of the 1990s, from the LA riots to Pan Am 103 and Iran Contra. Thirty years later, Barr faced an unrelenting barrage of issues, such as Russiagate, the COVID outbreak, civil unrest, the impeachments, and the 2020 election fallout. One Damn Thing After Another is vivid, forthright, and essential not only to understanding the Bush and Trump legacies, but also how both men viewed power and justice at critical junctures of their presidencies.

A great voice of rationality in a chaotic time.
However Barr does read like a bureaukrat excuseing his impotense.

Antifa/Blm violence cant be stopped due to paperwork.
No charges can be made against FBI faking documents because intent can not be proven.

All in all, Barr is a man that value the moral high ground, no matter what it will cost. He would rather do nothing than something if in doubt.

With 6th jan arrest 3 years later, and Trump current arrest. It is clear Denocrats do charge/arrest people, no matter paperwork or intent

Narrators voice dull and mundane. Contents full of initials for posts and long words. Boring.

Hard going

Started as an interesting account of Barrs career but deviated into GOP partisan hackery about halfway through, sad that a man who could have been such a pillar of US political history became a sad puppet of Trump. The book starts underpinning Barr as a hard working , driven and principled individual reveals himself to be shamefully disingenuous. I couldn’t listen beyond the Muller report account . Really disappointed!

Started well , ends in “Hackery “
