    Barr will likely go to prison if he lives long enough

    Someone whose idea of truth is the same as his Right wing political comfort zone would, I guess, find the choice easy if one soothed his feelings and one didn't but in this case neither should. Mueller documented many contacts between Trump's campaign and Russia but came up short on "criminal conspiracy" (Mueller noted he wasn't charged with finding "collusion") and Durham is coming up short on finding anything to hit Biden with. In fact, Durham resisted Barr's pointed efforts to find dirt on Biden and instead found his investigation veering into suspected dirt on Trump. He hasn't issued his report yet.

    WASHINGTON — It became a regular litany of grievances from President Donald Trump and his supporters: The investigation into his 2016 campaign’s ties to Russia was a witch hunt, they maintained, that had been opened without any solid basis, went on too long and found no proof of collusion.

    Egged on by Trump, Attorney General William Barr set out in 2019 to dig into their shared theory that the Russia investigation likely stemmed from a conspiracy by intelligence or law enforcement agencies. To lead the inquiry, Barr turned to a hard-nosed prosecutor named John Durham and later granted him special counsel status to carry on after Trump left office.






    Interviews by the Times with more than a dozen current and former officials have revealed an array of previously unreported episodes that show how the Durham inquiry became roiled by internal dissent and ethical disputes as it went unsuccessfully down one path after another even as Trump and Barr promoted a misleading narrative of its progress.

    One low level FBI agent did a shortcut on getting a warrant. The funny part about that is Durham falsified a warrant application and got nothing for it.
