Yesterday, @CREWcrew sued the Justice Department over their failure to respond to our FOIA requests about the costs of US Attorney John Durham’s duplicative investigation into the start of the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Taxpayers paid and continue to pay for Trump minions William Barr and John Durham to travel around America and the world to solicit American Allies to investigate debunked Trump-Republican-Russia conspiracy theories.
- Debunked by Barr’s own DOJ 😂
- Debunked by even John Durham 😂
- Debunked by all of the U.S. Intel agencies ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- Debunked by the Republican controlled SENATE Intel Committee 😂
- Debunked by the U.S. House Intel Committee 😂
The conclusions drawn from the Mueller investigation showed that the investigation was not politically motivated, as Barr claimed. Additionally, while there was insufficient evidence to charge a broader conspiracy, the report produced convictions of numerous Trump campaign officials and associates. Barr’s involvement in the Mueller investigation created a potential appearance of impropriety because it appeared that Barr had pre-judged the outcome of the investigation. Still, Barr and Durham continue to pursue an inquiry into the origins of the investigation.
Previously, CREW requested documents that would shed light on Barr’s involvement with Durham’s investigation and sued DOJ when it failed to turn over any responsive documents.
The latest lawsuit stems from three FOIA requests CREW filed concerning the costs of trips related to Durham’s investigation, including an international trip to Italy taken by Barr, and copies of all budgets, expenses, salaries, and costs of the investigation. CREW is suing following DOJ’s failure to turn over these documents.
Why is #CoverUpBarr refusing to release the documents and expenses to Taxpayers?
