The report a year ago was that Barr, the consummate, Deep State, Bush family fixer (and a second-generation corrupt spook type) was put in to cover the Bush family crap up (part of a truce between the Bushes and Trumps, after Poppy’s funeral), and so would do just that.
I see nothing to the contrary, other than his more brazenly keeping the jig going within the DoJ and FBI (and presumably the CIA and...) than might even have been expected.
The AG and FBI chiefs not only signed off on the Trump campaign shenanigans, but they veritably led the charge.
They crippled Reagan in a similar way.
Yes this is ominous and creepy as hell.
