It’s almost past time, and the remaining time is getting closer to its expiration date.

**************

I completely agree with you. But I just don’t see that happening. Numerous indictments (which is what is needed) would be problematic for Barr. And even if he were to do it, the process would drag out forever into an endless circus of legal stunts.

As much as I hate to say it what will probably come out of the Barr probe (and Horowitz) will likely be an indictment of the agencies involved for not following procedures and “acting outside the bounds of their authority” or some such BS. He’ll make recommendations to “strengthen accountability” but I doubt there will be a flurry of charges against specific individuals.

I hope I’m wrong but that would be the easiest road for Barr and company to take and therefore the most likely. The heavy lifting associated with going after individuals would be time consuming, have unintended political side effects, and would probably be fruitless in the end.

We pretend to be a nation of laws but we are anything but.
