In another clip released by CBS This Morning of their interview with AG Barr, he responds to the criticism from Democrats that he’s protecting the president:
In his response Barr is unflappable, telling CBS that the criticism is based in hyperpartisanship where people aren’t concerned about substance, but rather what side someone is on and getting their way politically.
On the contrary, Barr says the DOJ is all about the law, the facts and the substance and that’s the basis for the decisions he makes.
He chalks up the criticism as to what comes with the territory of being the Attorney General in a hyperpartisan period of time.
