Attorney General Jeff Sessions quietly tapped Huber — apparently last fall — to work in tandem with the Justice Department’s inspector general to determine whether conservative allegations of abuse at the FBI and the Justice Department merit investigation.
White House officials see Huber as a second special counsel in everything but name because he has the authority to prosecute, a task the inspector general has to refer to a U.S. attorney.
Sorry, I don’t take former Obama appointee Huber seriously. The proof is in the pudding. Mueller had no problem dropping numerous indictments ASAP. Huber has been “investigating” since last fall. It’s all CYA kabuki.
