"In terms of the future of Durham's investigation, you know he's pressing ahead as hard as he can, and I expect that we will have some developments hopefully before the end of the summer," Barr said in the interview today.
Durham's investigation has slowed as a consequence of the coronavirus crisis, the attorney general said. When Bartiromo asked about a grand jury, Barr declined to divulge whether one has been impaneled.
"I don't want to suggest there has been or is a grand jury, but it is a fact that there have not been grand juries in virtually all districts for a long period of time, and also people have been reluctant to travel for interviews and things like that," Barr said.
Durham has "been working where he can on other matters that aren't affected by the pandemic. But there has been an effect," Barr noted.
During the interview, Barr expressed concern that mail-in voting is ripe for fraud and could harm public confidence in election integrity.
"It absolutely opens the floodgates to fraud," he said. "Those things are delivered into mailboxes, they can be taken out."
"Right now," he continued, "a foreign country could print up tens of thousands of counterfeit ballots and be very hard for us to detect which was the right and which was the wrong ballot."
The attorney general said that "it can upset and undercut the confidence in the integrity of our elections. If anything we should tighten them up right now."

I thought I was gonna take a break, but this Covid stuff ain't nothing and I'm immune to propaganda (or at least I think I am), so I figured why not post the link if some here haven't seen it. So maybe the Russian election meddling hoax will be revealed for what it has already proven itself to be for those who make the effort to get to the bottom of things. Maybe there are bigger fish who are starting to look around and wonder whether some sharks have entered the waters. Maybe, maybe not.
By the way the indictment is against a "Sussmann" and the firm he works for is: Perkins Coie - I believe they are headquartered in Seattle and perhaps that is a clue regarding "Tech-Executive 1". Perhaps and perhaps not. Still - if anybody finds anything regarding this Tech Executive, well please, post it, so we all can study it for ourselves and make up our own minds.
The thing is once you start delving into and sussing out the lies well then so many pathways present themselves but honestly none of it is hard to figure out. Some of us already have and that is why - WE KNOW!

ps - I love animals working together and helping each other when they feel compelled to do as such, but I know that is the exception. Nothing wrong with that.
I think most of the time, kitty cats annoy dogs. Just today my dog, and old spry Jack Russel, encountered a really mean red kitty cat best I could tell - my dog barked at it but she didn't attack it. I made no effort to encourage them to be friends cause I know that just ain't natural and I appreciated the wisdom of what my dog did. Anyhow, my dog is unlikely to ever see that cat again and that cat is really not welcome where it is at - its previous owners have departed the scene. It is just another annoying cat now that nobody wants around, but it is none of my business anymore.
My guess is that this is the first indictment of many. I look forward to reading the future ones and I hope the Durham investigation continues along without interference. If there is going to be any justice, then the lies need to be exposed no matter the depth of ignominy.
