AG Barr: "Very Troubled" By Durham Probe, Familiar Names Tried To Sabotage Trump Campaign

Attorney General Bill Barr gave an update on U.S. Attorney John Durham's probe into federal surveillance abuses conducted by the FBI and DOJ while they investigated Michael Flynn and presidential candidate Donald Trump. Barr said the FBI was "spring-loaded" to investigate Trump's campaign and ignored exculpatory evidence.

"I think before the election, I think we're concerned about the motive force behind the very aggressive investigation that was launched into the Trump campaign without, you know, with a very thin, slender reed as a basis for it," Barr told host Bret Baier. "It seemed that the bureau was sort of spring-loaded at the end of July to drive in there and investigate a campaign."
