So Barr is going to investigate spying on the Trump campaign.

I bet what ever is found will be published without anything redacted.

1. The IG's report would likely be released

But I doubt Barr would release a report on such "spying" even if he found it. He would just start arresting people.

2. Investigating reports of Russian infiltration of tRump's campaign is going to be framed as spying...

this if freaking killing me how they can twist this shit around. If tRump is a suspect, they can't go up to him and tell him what they are doing. Heck they told him they knew the Russians were trying to infiltrate his campaign only a month after they opened it in August 2016. He should have known then to be careful.

I swear, the Republicans could accuse the Fire Department of ruining their annual bar-b-q for putting out the fire after they tried to burn down the local butcher shop because he was a Democrat. The press would run with their story too.

3. and he acts like he didn't know what he was doing using the word spying.

Later in the interview, he explains that it could be proper or improper spying. Right now I am watching CNN, and they are taking it out of context. They are assuming that spying means something improper when he didn't say that.

4. Hmmm...it really seems that Mr. Barr's comments ought to be grounds for the Democrats to ask him to

resign. I cannot imagine such unfounded, unsubstantiated, comments coming from any of the previous AGs without major protests from both parties.
