Do you think this is a coincidence? I sure don't.

Tonight: both the WA Post and NY Times release stories about the 3/27 letter Mueller sent to Barr, complaining about how Barr summarized Mueller's report.

Tomorrow: Barr is set to testify to the Senate.

I think Barr has just been put on notice. If he lies, the truth will come out.

Graham did tell Brennan that he would examine Barr’s four-page summary. “Does the report support his summary? Does the report actually indicate there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians?” Graham said, adding that he thought the obstruction of justice question “absurd.”

Mueller's team has expressed their dissatisfaction before but didn't release Mueller's letter. "Someone" may have intentionally waited to drop the bombshell on the eve of Barr heading to Congress so he wouldn't have much time to fabricate another coverup and to knock him off his pre-planned game plan.
