A group of Democrats led by Hank Johnson have sent a letter to Attorney General Barr demanding his resignation.
Per Townhall, their argument focuses solely on the fact that Barr “handpicked” Durham to investigate the origins of the Russia probe. The goal of Durham’s investigation is to determine whether or not the probe was “lawful and appropriate.”
According to these members, Barr’s previous claims that the Trump campaign was spied upon is an “unfounded assertion” and was “inappropriate” because Inspector General Michael Horowitz was also completing his investigation.
