There’s a new liberal conspiracy theory about AG Bill Barr…

There’s a new conspiracy theory about Bill Barr today and it has everything to do with Trump:

They actually wrote an article a Bill Barr booking Trump’s hotel for a holiday party that costs $30,000. LOL!

Here’s how it starts out:

Attorney General William P. Barr is planning a holiday treat for his boss.

Last month, Barr booked President Trump’s D.C. hotel for a 200-person holiday party in December that is likely to deliver Trump’s business more than $30,000 in revenue.

Barr signed a contract, a copy of which was obtained by The Washington Post, for a “Family Holiday Party” in the hotel’s Presidential Ballroom Dec. 8. The party will feature a buffet and a four-hour open bar for about 200 people.

$30,000 in revenue! Trump’s gonna be so rich!

Except it’s not in taxpayer money, as you might suspect from the title. In the very next paragraph, WAPO reveals that Barr is paying for it out of his own pocket:

Barr is paying for the event himself and chose the venue only after other hotels, including the Willard and the Mayflower, were booked, according to a Justice Department official. The official said the purpose of Barr’s party wasn’t to curry favor with the president.

They even note that Trump’s hotel wasn’t even Barr’s first choice. So what the heck is the reason for this story to begin with? Can’t a man hold a holiday party without the Washington Post writing a story about it?

Wapo then shows how they dug really deep to investigate this sinister looking holiday party by contacting an anonymous Justice Department official:

“Career ethics officials were consulted, and they determined that ethics rules did not prohibit him from hosting his annual party at the Trump hotel,” said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the party is not a Justice Department event.

So what’s the point of this article if Barr did everything right?

Barr’s decision to book his boss’s hotel marks the latest collision between Trump’s administration and his business, which the president no longer operates but from which he still benefits financially.

Oh I see, Trump is getting rich on the presidency and Barr is helping him do it…with his own personal money, I guess.

This article is absolutely ridiculous. Even George Conway thinks so…

When you’ve lost George Conway, you know your anti-Trump article is garbage.
