There was something said about a hard drive he'd "found" with info on it that he wants to share with Congress. Since it's part of what was initially confiscated in the raid and then returned to him, I think it's likely part of the Mueller report. He's trying to make sure this info gets to Congress, and probably doesn't trust Barr to do that any more than we do. JMHO.

Barr would of course lie about an easily disproved statement. dawg day Apr 2019 #32

Barr is too fricking old to risk perjury by misquoting at140 Apr 2019 #59

At this point Barr is a liar seeing he wouldn't release the summaries meant for public consumption.. uponit7771 Apr 2019 #51

He should but betting he won't. triron Apr 2019 #54

This is all from material returned to him by Mueller and SDNY madville Apr 2019 #33
