Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) said Attorney General Barr is a “liar” who is abusing his office to place President Donald Trump above the law.
The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee said the Trump campaign had clearly colluded with Russia and the president had obstructed justice in that investigation, and he said Barr had lied about what special counsel Robert Mueller found, reported CNBC.
