As Attorney General in early ’90s, William Barr pushed an anti-immigrant agenda with inflammatory rhetoric that prefigured the Trump Administration’s stance. Barr spoke about immigration with many of the same mischaracterizations we commonly hear today: “we have people who are not willing to stand in line under the fair system but come crashing in the back door,” said Barr in 1994. Barr proposed harsh changes to immigration policy, used fear-mongering to gain support, and was highly suspect of asylum seekers. Sound familiar?
Barr stood with the Trump Administration on the Muslim ban and has defended Jeff Sessions as Attorney General. On the Muslim ban, Barr spoke up after Trump issued the first Muslim ban and after acting AG Sally Yates was fired for refusing to defend it. The day after, Barr wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post echoing Trump’s inflammatory and counterproductive rhetoric in defense of the firing and the ban alike. Barr said he saw “no plausible grounds for disputing the order’s lawfulness.” Both Trump’s first and second Muslim bans were blocked by the courts within days.) Barr’s defense of the Muslim ban suggested an unlikeliness to act as a bulwark against the unconstitutional impulses of the Administration.
