I think a lot of conservatives are overreacting to this statement by AG Barr.
As I review the video and the transcript, what I see is Barr reading a prepared, carefully-crafted statement that is entirely proper.
Durham is investigating. That investigation is being conducted in a proper manner which is in stark contrast to what happened prior to Barr’s appointment as AG. What Barr knows so far is that those suspected of crimes and therefore being criminally investigated by Durham currently do not include Obama or Biden.
Barr knew he would be asked the question and this is his answer. I see absolutely no problem with this statement.

THAT is the problem I have with it. Barr is a sophisticated and experienced communicator and lawyer. For him to use the phrase “drummed up” in this context is itself a signal.
There is NOTHING spurious about the potential charges here. To use that phrase at all anywhere on the same continent as Barack Obamas apparant actions is a shocking attack on the seriousness of the crime.
I could see Barr not WANTING to include Obama and Biden in charges. I myself would charge everybody BUT Bozo/Biden and let them both stew in the filth bubbling out of the courtrooms. But Barr has just signaled that NOBODY is getting charged by using the EXACT phrase that Hillary or Pelosi would...and probably have.
