Durham Has Unaltered Copies of the Documents that Got Altered in the Flynn Docket : emptywheel

I think the p-poor legal abilities left in the upper part of the Barr DoJ are going to rue the day that they signed on the trump gravy-train.

I'll quote a couple of paragraphs from Marcy's excellent analysis. This will be developing.
Bill Barr could come to regret his neat effort to place a ticking time bomb inside the Joe Biden DOJ, because John Durham has evidence in hand that Bill Barr’s DOJ tampered with documents.

I’ve been thinking … There’s something that doesn’t make sense about Bill Barr’s roll-out of the order making John Durham a Special Counsel. For the better part of a year, Barr has been saying that Durham could roll out actual indictments before the election, since none of the people he would indict were candidates. Yet Barr claimed, in his order, that he decided (not Durham) that, “legitimate investigative and privacy concerns warrant confidentiality” until after the election. And then he waited almost an entire month before he revealed the order. He did so in spite of adopting 28 CFR 600.9, which otherwise requires notice to Congress, to govern this appointment.


There is so much information packed into this blog and the commentaries. These will make an excellent historic record of this time of criminality and attempted tyranny.
