'President Trump referred to the law enforcement investigation into Russian interference as an attempted coup, and now the President is hoping for evidence to bolster this false claim despite all the facts laid out in the Mueller report,' says jaketapper

Barr is working in close collaboration with CIA Director Gina Haspel, Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and FBI Director Christopher Wray, the source said.There had been speculation as to why Haspel had been spotted at the Justice Department in recent weeks. Wray testified last week he was assisting Barr.Trump often called for the Justice Department and others to review how the FBI began investigating the connection between his campaign and Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

""Many people seem to assume that the only intelligence collection that occurred was a single confidential informant and a FISA warrant," Barr said, testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee earlier this month."I'd like to find out whether that is, in fact, true. It strikes me as a fairly anemic effort if that was the counterintelligence effort designed to stop the threat as it's being represented.

Gomez has Gonads!

Barr opening another investigation? Kinda like the democrats wanna redo on Mueller report! Save your garbage for another day Wolf.

The table has turned

Donald doesnt give 2 shits what Rep.Jimmy says

Wow, CNN, how are you going to spin this ?

Mueller Report must not have gotten to you yet...he found Trump committed no crimes so of course it is about transparency! Sad Trump Jr seems to not mind that the witch hunt continues! Yet we do...how about CongressFixImmigration

Of course he won't be happy when it is revealed to be the coup attempt Trump suspects.

He wants a Wall built!!!

you know damn well they will make something up and lie i have no doubt about that you watch and see

Candidate for re-education camp?

What are the odds?

Well hope it's about transparency and learning the facts, but with this Administration it could end up just another cover up to protect this President and his political party.

The table has turned. President Trump wants everything released to the public but the democrats are blocking him

Maybe not to protect president, but sure to please him. Last week president suggested to conduct such investigation.

it's all about cover up plain and simple

why not just release the full details of the FISA warrant. LindseyGrahamSC just backed off an investigation into that which means there is something bad for his girlfriend Trump

Really? No one else knows the the Muslim-in-Chief Sanctioned it?

If he believes that, the president has some steaks to sell him.

So in other words. As long as it supports the Democrat narrative.

What is Jimmy implying?

Time to pay the Barr tab
