The post indicated that Barr denied the holding of a press conference, sometime in September, more or less around the time where the White House would’ve issued the transcription of the phone call that involves both Donald Trump and Bill Barr. As for the claims of “fake news” and “false press”, Trump makes these statements referring to the source of the original piece by the Washington Post remaining anonymous and classified. The Yucatan Times NewsroomThe article Trump refers to in his post on Twitter, is one that shows the US president asking Barr to hold a press conference claiming he has not broken any laws by calling the Ucranian leader and asking for him to investigate the opposing democrates.
The Amazon Washington Post and three lowlife reporters, Matt Zapotosky, Josh Dawsey, and Carol Leonnig, wrote another Fake News story, without any sources (pure fiction), about Bill Barr & myself. We both deny this story, which they knew before they wrote it. A garbage newspaper!
