Other than some "gut instincts," what evidence is there that this is the case?

Serious. Did Barr actually stop the Mueller investigation?? riversedge Mar 2019 #2
I don't know. What I'm saying is that it really seems odd that there are still The Velveteen Ocelot Mar 2019 #3

I think it would have leaked by now if Barr had directly intervened Azathoth Mar 2019 #12

Well said and thought-through. I agree these are decent possibilities (nt) mr_lebowski Mar 2019 #15
I agree. Karadeniz Mar 2019 #19
Agree. If Mueller is half the man he was made out to be, he would have Hoyt Mar 2019 #25
Pure conjecture. Lots to be suspicious of nevertheless. triron Mar 2019 #36

I continue to suspect Barr shut it down for some similar reasons Jarqui Mar 2019 #28

Question about state level investigations Victor_c3 Mar 2019 #40
The investigations leading to the SDNY prosecutions were done by the FBI The Velveteen Ocelot Mar 2019 #42
Thanks for taking the time for the explanation Victor_c3 Mar 2019 #43
The FBI does not work for the states. JayhawkSD Mar 2019 #49
Also true. States have their own investigators The Velveteen Ocelot Mar 2019 #50

As I stated, I am speculating and I have no direct evidence. The Velveteen Ocelot Mar 2019 #46
Pretty far fetched, I'd have to say. Let's focus on what we know Barr did. He released a 4-page Nitram Mar 2019 #47

"...a bunch of Russians (who will never be prosecuted here)" JayhawkSD Mar 2019 #48
Which Russians? The Velveteen Ocelot Mar 2019 #52
Then I guess we both were in error. JayhawkSD Mar 2019 #53
You predict incorrectly. The Velveteen Ocelot Mar 2019 #54
You were in error, not the OP. S/he was correct -- a bunch of Russians will never be prosecuted. pnwmom Mar 2019 #57
Talk about playing with words. JayhawkSD Mar 2019 #58
And you claim that I have been playing word games! pnwmom Mar 2019 #59
