Barr Style
"According to the New York Times, Barr and John Durham, the special counsel he appointed to investigate the investigators, not only failed to find any evidence of the “deep state” conspiracy Trump incessantly claimed to be the victim of — the pair actually received a tip from Italian authorities that Trump himself may have been involved in financial crimes, a claim that became part of the investigation, though no charges were ultimately filed.

As House Republicans launch cynical investigations into the Biden administration, there's a lot to be learned from the John Durham inquiry, which Trump and his allies misleadingly suggested was narrowing in on the “deep state,” but in reality was actually investigating a tip about financial...
