WASHINGTON — A federal prosecutor appointed by Attorney General William Barr to look into Obama administration officials' "unmasking" of unnamed individuals in intelligence reports concluded his review without finding evidence of wrongdoing, according to a source with direct knowledge of the probe, and without interviewing former CIA Director John Brennan.
Brennan told NBC News he was not interviewed by the prosecutor, U.S. Attorney John Bash of the Western District of Texas, or anyone related to the investigation.
"I was never interviewed by anyone in the Department of Justice about unmasking, which was a politically motivated probe initiated by William Barr to please Donald Trump," Brennan said.
One other key figure in the unmasking controversy, who declined to be named, told NBC News there was no interview by Justice Department officials.
Bash was tapped by Barr to head the "unmasking" probe, according to statements made by Justice Department spokeswoman Kerri Kupec on Fox News in May. It began as a spin-off of Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham's investigation into the origins of what became special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
The Washington Post was first to report that the unmasking investigation ended without producing a report or criminal charges.

Whitewash
Brennan is a lying Muslim POS.
One of the low points of American history.
Justice means Dems skate, others go to prison (Manafort,Flynn,Stone-——unless rescued. And more to come. An article with slide show this week said “These Nine Crime Charges Are Ones Trump Will Face After He Leaves Office.””
Now Olbermann, Don Lemon, Tapper, and more will say “Just a rumor” “No charges show it was a political dog trick Trump tried to teach Barr” “Trump was in collusion with Russians after all.” “Maybe new impeachment after this.”
I can’t stand it.
From garage thefts, vandalism al the way to the highest offices of federal government, the law no longer works for the people. It is designed to protect the criminals.
When the people finally figure this out, they won’t call the police any more. ement and back hoe rentals will triple.
*cement
Trump being Serpico’d by Barr and his buddies
Natch. $5 says Durham finds nothing, either. They all skate on crime. The Deep State Swamp wins again.
“according to a source”
~~~~~~~~~
“Sources say”.......We know where that often leads.
Well there are no indictments forthcoming are there?
Unmasking is not illegal.
It’s what is done with the info that could be illegal.
Expected, unfortunately.
Despite contestation otherwise, this confirms there are two sets of ‘rules’....those for the elites and then those for everyone else.
I hate Barr. Worthless slime.
Third world stuff.
Maybe some underlings, but most likely none.
FIRE HIM, MR. PRESIDENT!!
Dohhh! Fake government information providing
I guess they all figure Trump will be gone from DC and they can all go on with their parties!!
Thanks for wasting our time, Mr. Barr.
It’s been real grand.
Yep. It is all government obstruction of justice in color of law, complete anarchic empowerment.
Antifa in the tank.
