Bill Barr's prosecutor pursues expansion of probe to discredit Russia investigation: report

On Saturday, NBC News reported that John Durham, the U.S. attorney tasked by Attorney General William Barr to investigate right-wing allegations of misconduct in the Russia investigation, plans to interview a number of prominent members of the intelligence community. On his list is former CIA director John Brennan, a common bogeyman of President Donald Trump and his allies due to his on-air criticism of the president.

Durham’s investigation has been touted by the right for months as Trump’s chance to root out supposed evil actors in the “Deep State” responsible for opening the investigation into Trump’s ties to Russia in the first place.

The misuse of the justice department for Trump’s political bones to pick is horrifying. This is a door that we are going through that you can’t shut easily.
