Attorney General William Barr has assembled a team to review controversial counterintelligence decisions made by Justice Department and FBI officials, including during the probe of the Trump campaign, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Atty. Gen. William Barr appears before a House Appropriations subcommittee Tuesday, April 9, 2019.

Barr’s inquiry is separate from a long-running investigation by the Justice Department’s inspector general, said the person, who asked not to be identified discussing sensitive matters. The FBI declined to comment. Barr said he expected the inspector general’s work to be completed by May or June. “Once we put the Mueller report to bed, once Barr comes to the committee and takes questions about his findings and his actions, and we get to see the Mueller report, consistent with law, then we are going to turn to finding out how this got off the rails,” he said in a March 28 interview with Fox News.

Before they lost control of the House in November’s election, Jordan and Republican allies including Rep. Devin Nunes of California conducted a two-year campaign to show players in the FBI and Justice Department were out to get Trump.

Intelligence agencies exist to provide real information for foreign policy and pertinent national security FACTS. When they become political is when their credibility must be questioned, second guessed and PROSECUTED when necessary.

The other shoe shall drop soon. Suddenly there will be a call to keep these investigations secret instead of releasing them.

John Brennan Is a traitorous bum.

Bout time. TheJusticeDept

I am interested in knowing if the Russia investigation had a legitimate basis.

So, in other words; Mr. Barr is Mr. Trump's attorney - not the People's?
