Former AG Bill William Barr called the FBI's investigation into Donald Trump 'one of the greatest injustices' done toward a president. Barr said it was an almost unparalleled injustice and that John Durham's investigation cleared Trump of all wrongdoing.
Former Attorney General William Barr called the FBI's investigation into former President Donald Trump"one of the greatest injustices" done toward a president.
In an appearance on Fox News on Tuesday, Barr offered a rare defense and praise of his former boss, arguing that the investigation into Trump's alleged ties to the Russian government was an almost unparalleled injustice and that special counsel John Durham's investigation fully cleared Trump of all wrongdoing."This is one of the greatest injustices done to a presidential candidate and president," Barr said.
However, Durham's report fell short of uncovering the “crime of the century,” as Trump speculated, and it did not recommend any criminal charges.
