William Barr’s Perversion of Justice,” a lead editorial by the N.Y. Times editorial board, presents a clear case that Trump’s attorney general is little more than a thug and a boot licker — that he’s “turning the Justice Department into a political weapon for the president” and hasn’t the slightest regard for the rule of law. But for me, the keeper is the illustration by Nicholas Konrad, which elaborates upon a photograph by Times staff photographer T.J. Kirkpatrick.
