OP-ED: Rudy Giuliani’s outrage is the refuge of a scoundrel

Los Angeles Times (TNS)
It was entirely predictable that Rudy Giuliani would react to the FBI search of his office and apartment last week by claiming that a “corrupt double standard” subjects supporters of former President Donald Trump to “false charges and procedures.” The publicity-savvy Giuliani was even ready to apply a name to it: the Trump Derangement Syndrome.
It is outrageous, read the statement from Giuliani’s lawyer, that the Department of Justice has set its sights “on the United States Attorney and Mayor who did more to reduce crime than virtually any other in American history.”

Don’t Hate Bill Barr’s Commitment To The Rule Of Law
December 16, 2020
Late Monday, President Trump announced Attorney General William Barr’s resignation, effective Dec. 23, 2020. The announcement followed a deluge of criticism from Trump supporters about Barr’s handling of the investigation into Crossfire Hurricane and the Department of Justice’s silence about the investigation into Hunter Biden.
But Barr’s resignation letter, posted by Trump on Twitter, demonstrates the attorney general ended his service to the president and our country with the same dedication and integrity that he showcased over the last year. During that time, Barr faced the daunting task of investigating Crossfire Hurricane’s targeting of the Trump campaign, then Trump transition team and Trump administration the second-worst political scandal in American history, surpassed only by Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s fraudulent investigation into the Trump team and supposed Russia collusion.
