I really think he's gonna try to drag Mueller into this and blame him somehow.

Hell, he'll probably even try to say Acosta worked for Obama, because ... 2008 was when Obama was elected and Acosta was a prosecutor til 2009 (I'm guessing Obama pretty quickly canned him in reality).

I mean he's a compulsive f***ing liar. He's going to try to blame Obama and Mueller and Lynch and Holder, etc ... and say 'they all did nothing for years, but now MY AG (Barr) is FINALLY doing something about this man' ... blah blah blah.
