U.S. Attorney General William Barr is the highest cop in the land.
His testimony before the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday was full of spectacle and political attacks, but behind- the-scenes things are heating up.
A new investigation has been launched into former President Barack Obama’s administration officials and the “unmasking” of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.
Flynn was monitored by Deep State surveillance — and Barr’s Justice Department wants to know who was involved.
Barr confirmed to Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, that a shocking number of officials seem to be behind the Flynn case.
“I’ve asked another U.S. attorney to look into the issue of unmasking, because of the high number of unmaskings, and some that do not readily appear to have been in the line of normal business,” Barr confirmed.
That U.S. attorney is John Bash, of Texas.
Don’t be surprised if there’s a mountain of illegal activity found to have happened in the Obama administration.
As Barr said, the high number of unmaskings is anything but normal.
“38 people unmasked Michael Flynn’s name, 48 times in a two-month time frame,” Jordan said, getting the confirmation from Barr during the hearing.
“Seven people at the Treasury Department unmasked Michael Flynn’s name.”
According to Statesman News, Barr and company are reportedly going back even further than 2016 for evidewnce. It’s an unprecedented level of scrutiny from the Trump administration heading into November.
And if Obama — or Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden — were involved, it could change the landscape of the election in a major way.
