All that was acknowledged in the transcript of James Baker’s closed door testimony is that USA Durham was conducting a criminal investigation into FBI leaks and that Baker was among the targets of his investigation. That hearing was in October, when Sessions was still AG, so Durham must have already been assigned to that task by Sessions.
What we don’t know is whether AG Barr has broadened Durham’s scope, or sharpened it, or if nothing has actually changed except for a calculated, public tightening of the screws. Every observable action provokes a reaction...
Thanks.
