The Justice Department is investigating a potential crime related to funneling money to the White House or related political committee in exchange for a presidential pardon, according to court records unsealed Tuesday in federal court.
The case is the latest legal twist in the waning days of President Donald Trump's administration after several of his top advisers have been convicted of federal criminal charges and as the possibility rises of Trump giving pardons to those who've been loyal to him.
The disclosure is in 20 pages of partially redacted documents made public by the DC District Court on Tuesday afternoon. The records show Chief Judge Beryl Howell's review in August of a request from prosecutors to access documents obtained in a search as part of a bribery-for-pardon investigation.

Even if Barrs lies was true about not being enough fraud to change presidential election how about down ballot results? We know as few as 13 fraudulent votes can make the difference in a congressional seat.
All signs lead to DOJ/Barr being corrupt/incompetent but... We deep down don’t believe it, or want to believe it.
There is some sort of inner sense, gut feel, that nothing is what it seems. Mysterious times.
Who do you think they are "investigating"?
Makes perfect sense ... a billionare taking money for a pardon ...
ohhh I get it, they want to make it look like Trump is firing Barr because Barr is investigating him. War going on.
Deflection from DEFRAUDGATE.
There really appears to be a “deep state” running everything in government, and it also controls the media.
This was just a RED ALERT BREAKING NEWS on FOX News.
It is going to have to be someone close to Trump.
They have to have gravitas in order to get someone to pay them
Are you freaking kidding me? Crazy.
btw, I am sure a lot of President’s have done this...like donate money to my library and I will let you get off scott free.
Yeah, I suppose this is on par with Hunter selling foreign countries and companies access to Joe?
The fake news is ramping up - they must know President Trump isn’t going anywhere..
The actual order is shown farther down the article.

From the DOJ filing....
“This political strategy to obtain a presidential pardon was “parallel” to and distinct from [redacted’s] role as an attorney-advocate for [redacted].”
This is why Trump should pardon himself and all his children. They will go after him until the day he dies. This is not the country we knew anymore.
