Barack Obama’s spy chiefs never believed that Donald Trump was a Russian spy.

FBI Headquarters attached itself to the project, devoting manpower and resources to investigating Trump, when the Bureau learned that foreign intelligence services had her correspondence.

U.S. Attorney John Durham’s nearly two-year-long investigation into the origins of the FBI’s probe of the 2016 Trump campaign is, according to news reports, making “excellent progress” and expanding. The shape of the case has been clear for some time, as I reported in my 2019 book, “The Plot Against the President”: the Clinton campaign was worried about the candidate’s emails going public.

Same reason Sloe Joe will be president .... they had to bury all the evidence of Burisma and his dealing with the Chinese (including the virus) -- Trump I believe was close to bringing the walls down...very close.  Had Barr done his dang job, things would be a lot different right now.
