Former Attorney General Bill Barr said the Department of Justice (DOJ) appears to be “getting very close” to having enough evidence to indict former President Donald Trump.
“There are two questions: Will the government be able to make out a technical case, will they have evidence by which that they could indict somebody on, including him?” Barr, who has been at odds with Trump since leaving office, told Fox News on Wednesday.
“That’s the first question, and I think they’re getting very close to that point, frankly,” he added. Barr did not elaborate on why he believes that, and he did not say whether he has any specific information that led him to such a conclusion.
The second question, Barr said, involves whether the DOJ would indict a former president. He said hoped that the agency’s currently leadership won’t indict Trump due to the turmoil it could create in the United States.
“At the end of the day, there’s another question which is, ‘Do you indict a former president? What will that do to the country, what kind of precedent will that set? Will the people really understand that this is not failing to return a library book, that this was serious?’ And so, you have to worry about those things,” Barr asked. “I hope that those kinds of factors will incline the administration not to indict him because I don’t want to see him indicted as a former president.”
It came after Barr, who was appointed by Trump and left office in late 2020, criticized U.S. Judge Aileen Cannon, a Trump appointee, for granting the former president’s request to have a special master review documents that were taken by FBI agents during the Aug. 8 raid targeting Mar-a-Lago.

Shut up Fat Boy. If I had Merry Garland’s job, your ass would be in jail for setting up the POTUS for your bottom feeding RAT comrades. You treasonous, fatass SLOB!
You will notice that these clowns never give President Trump’s side on these matters. It is always from the DOJ and FBI’s outlook on it.
Bill Barr is helping the democrats destroy the republican party.
He’s dumb, but also and evil.
He wants Trump indicted... because he’s government trash, like his pervert dad.
Barr must have been paid big bucks to turn on the Republicans or he is covering his own a$$.
“Bill Barr is helping the democrats destroy the republican party.”
Bill Barr is helping the democrats destroy this country!!
He’s a long time swamp rat.
Why is Barr all of a sudden flapping his lips every day?
Barr will go with the rest of them for military treason trials at Gitmo.
Bag of wind best leave Trump be.
There’s the ire of a plurality of mean ing full people in this country
Which means that they will have to do a little more fabricating, and violate President Trump's privacy a bit more, so they can maybe put something together, to charge him with. After seven years of the Feds and New York State conducting anal exams of everything Donald, and finding nothing, they are still looking.
They had all they needed before the raid - 100% made-up
Bill Barr can stfu.
Pretty soon, I’m gonna start screaming. Bill Barr is a bitterly disappointing individual. He must know that Trump now knows whatever it was that Hillary and Obama knew. Photos? Videos? Of his dad and Epstein or he himself with Epstein? Or with kids? I don’t know. I know it’s not proof of a crime because Democrats don’t care about crimes. They want shock. They want blackmail material. Like peeing on a bed, for God’s sake. Next Barr will say he believes that too.
What a day.
how the hell does he know?
Are they leaking to him?
He left out “manufacturering”
But this fraud never had any evidence to indict democrats. Disgraceful.
