As hard as William Barr tries to carry the water for his boss Donald Trump?
He comes up short…
The FBI makes mistakes like everyone else…
But Trump’s stories about them just aren’t true….
Any surprise at this?
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s office contacted U.S. Attorney John Durham, the prosecutor Barr personally tapped to lead a separate review of the 2016 probe into possible coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia, the people said. The inspector general also contacted several U.S. intelligence agencies.
Among Horowitz’s questions: whether a Maltese professor who interacted with a Trump campaign adviser was actually a U.S. intelligence asset deployed to ensnare the campaign, the people said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because the inspector general’s findings have not been made public.
But the intelligence agencies said the professor was not among their assets, the people said. And Durham informed Horowitz’s office that his investigation had not produced any evidence that might contradict the inspector general’s findings on that point….
Wait for Donald Trump turn on Bill Barr, as he did on Jeff Sessions, for appointing an independent investigator.
He hasn’t tweeted about it, yet, His tweets are currently a witches’ brew of whining about impeachment, growling at the Democrats and declaring (contrary to everything I’ve seen or heard so far on the Fake news media) what a terrific success his NATO trip had been.
He also boasts about Rasmussen reporting a ¡ ¡ 52 % ! ! approval rating. [ That’s rather pathetic. Who are the unpatriotic, treasonous 48% ???? Must be Ukrainian sleeper spies. ]

Yes DSD….
I believe Barr’s days ARE numbered….
With the US Atty for the SDNY on Rudys case and a possible squeeze situation developing and Barr letting this go on, AND the Durham NOT throwing the FBI under the bus?
One Rasmussen?
NO ONE buys what they are selling…
They just help him with his Real Clear Politics approval average…
