Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden slammed Attorney General William Barr's recent comments about coronavirus restrictions on Thursday, calling the remarks "sick" during a town hall.

Barr said Wednesday in northern Virginia that coronavirus restrictions are the "greatest intrusion on civil liberties" since slavery.

"What Bill Barr recently said is outrageous," Biden told anchor Anderson Cooper at the forum outside of Scranton, Pa.

enrichment, judicial appointments and destruction of any and all safety nets or regulation. Vile and rotten to the core. Whole damn party. Cuomo showed how it is done after being lied to about the virus and finding out as it was exploding. That withholding of info was also criminal and I wonder if it was intentional. We will need investigations.
