    look into the originals of the Mueller investigation

    on 20 Sep 2019, Trump hosted a state visit by
    Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison​

    if true, that'd make Barr co-conspiractor #2

    This regime is corrupt to the core. If you are one of the morons that voted for him for President or continue to support him, you should never be allowed to vote again.

    It proves that Trump is innocent or he will not dig into Mueller investigation.

    Same exact type of mindset of people who blindly worship Erdogan and Putin in their respective countries.

    Barr is looking to be more of the b**** errand boy Trump envisioned Sessions to be.

    Trump did this for the sake of our democracy. To see if any foreign leader is corrupt and bring them to light! Australian prime minister passes the test..tremendous guy. A prime minister that you can sit down with and eat a couple of Mcfish fillet sandwiches from the burger kings.

    this is reported by CBS News

    Barr asked Mr. Trump to call Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison to alert him that the attorney general would be reaching out, a department official told CBS News. The New York Times first reported the two leaders had spoken.

    At Attorney General Barr's request, the President has contacted other countries to ask them to introduce the Attorney General and Mr. Durham to appropriate officials

    last week, on his part, Barr had traveled overseas meeting w intelligence sources in UK and Italy.

    the FBI first learned of Russians' meddling into the 2016 presidential election based on an alert / tip from Australia.

    recall that

    then-Trump campaign adviser George Popadakis had divulged the info to an Australian diplomat
    Trump / Barr have been on a mission to get Australia to discredit that

    Yes, he was digging into the investigation that totally exonerated him.

    Maybe I'm dense, but I don't understand what's the problem here. Yeah, I know the DOJ is running an investigation of the origins of the Mueller investigation. Its stupid and political, sure. But the DOJ can investigate what it likes. In their investigations, they'd like to be able to interview people in foreign governments, so they ask the president to give them a warm handover and he does so. So far as I can tell, the investigation into the investigation still has the veneer of official public business. So why shouldn't the office of the presidency assist in getting foreign interviews?

    This is not like asking Ukraine to investigate Biden. In that call, Trump wasn't asking for cooperation with US investigators, but for a Ukrainian investigation. He also had no cover story for how this effort was doing the people's business. I think getting in a tizzy about Australia dilutes the much weightier issue about Ukraine.

    Geez Graham has jumped the rails, I can't help but think he is afraid of being caught up in the investigation on NRA Russian money and he is all in on protectionism.

    Can’t wait until whatever Trump has on Abraham one out. Remember when he was at least respectable and wasn’t just a lapdog? Man sold out for something.

    His continued defiance will make the impeachment even easier.

    Traitorous Trump.......Devious Donald.....

    Time to get a catchy name for him.

    I cant wait till we find out how much money these senators and representatives made in the time of Trump.

    I cant imagine Graham having any other incentive to go out on a limb like this.
