OK, we need an explanation. From the president. Not an excuse from his loons.
Barr met privately with Murdoch amid impeachment scrutiny: report
By Marty Johnson - 10/10/19 05:33 PM EDT
Attorney General met privately Wednesday night with Rupert Murdoch, the media giant and known confidant of President Trump at Murdoch's home in New York, The New York Times reported on Thursday.
It is unclear what the two discussed, as aides of both men declined to speak with the Times.
The move comes amid House Democrats' impeachment inquiry into Trump over his interactions with Ukraine, matters with which Barr played an integral role.
During his now-infamous July 25 phone call with Volodymyr Zelensky, Trump asked the Ukrainian president to do him the favor of looking into former Vice President Joe Biden a leading 2020 candidate, as well as Biden's son, Hunter. Trump told Zelensky to coordinate with Barr and Rudy Giuliani on the effort.
Barr has also contacted multiple foreign governments asking them for assistance with the Justice Department's probe into the origins of the Russian interference investigation.
