“So that the targets and their buddies will see what Durham is working on?”
I hope that Durham really is “working on” something. If he is, he could have a say into whether a document release would impact his investigation.
On the other hand, if crimes indeed were committed, getting the facts about that into the public domain could force Barr, Durham, or someone to actually take action.
Barr and Durham don’t need the public to force them to take action. They’re taking action and have been since they stepped into their positions.
