AG Barr protects Durham probe with special counsel designation
(Worthy News) – Attorney General William P. Barr on Tuesday announced that he elevated the attorney investigating the origins of the Russia collusion probe to a special prosecutor, ensuring that the investigation can’t easily be squashed by presumptive President-elect Joseph R. Biden.
U.S. Attorney John Durham, the prosecutor leading the investigating for more than a year, now has the same powers that Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller flexed for nearly two years pursuing accusations of Russian collusion against President Trump and his campaign that have since been debunked.
In a letter to congressional leaders, Mr. Barr said he had designated Mr. Durham as a special counsel in October but waited until now to make it public. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
