#Barr wrote a 4-pg memo to #Congress describing the principal conclusions of the investigation into #Trump that #Mueller later complained “did not fully capture the context, nature, & substance” of the special counsel team’s work.
“Very different approach as you said from the way in which the Department of #Justice, unfortunately, tragically functioned under [Trump],” #Neguse said. -
“Attorney General #Garland did not interfere w/my efforts, & I was able to conduct a *fair*, thorough & independent investigation,” #Hur said.
#Neguse was attempting to draw a distinction between how Garland acted in regard to the Hur investigation & how AG #BillBarr acted when special counsel Robert #Mueller completed his investigation & report examining #Trump & #ForeignInterference in the 2016 #election results. -
#RobertHur said that AG #MerrickGarland did not interfere w/his investigation or attempt to modify his report. Rep Joe #Neguse asked #Hur a series of yes/no questions about whether #Garland —or any #DOJ ofcls— attempted to impede the investigation.
The appointment of a #SpecialCounsel is intended to make high-profile, sensitive investigations as #independent & #apolitical as possible. A SC has more independence from DOJ ldrs than other fed prosecutors, but still ultimately answers to the #USAG. -
There are so many reasons to oppose the #UintaBasinRailway, which would ship billions of gallons of crude #oil through a roadless area (trains aren't roads 🙄 )to connect with rails taking it along the #ColoradoRiver on its way to TX. #USFS under #Vilsak is on board. #boebert is mum so far, #Bennet & #Neguse speak out. Let your Reps know to say No!
