Short Take<\/strong>:<\/font><\/p>\n

From The New Yorker<\/a>: <\/font>Attorney General William Barr on Thursday proved unable to give honest answers to a drive-thru window at a Bethesda, Maryland, Arby\u2019s restaurant.<\/p>\n

Barr, who drove up to the window just after noon, appeared evasive and halting after the drive-thru attendant asked to take his order. <\/p>\n

\u201cI cannot recall what I would like to order at this time,\u201d Barr said, according to the attendant. <\/p>\n

When pressed repeatedly to name a sandwich, drink, or side order that he preferred, Barr stonewalled, the attendant said. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe questions I was asking him couldn\u2019t have been clearer,\u201d the attendant told reporters. \u201cI asked him if he wanted to order a Smokehouse Brisket sandwich. He refused to give me a yes-or-no answer.\u201d <\/p>\n

No doubt about it, Andy. That was Barrf! RESIST<\/strong>!!<\/font> <\/p>\n
