There are several big problems this creates: First we must remember that Barr showed this report to the White House before he released his summary. That means that his lies and his intentions to present those lies to Congress were known to the White House and he was not either admonished or restrained. That makes the White House an equal partner in this contempt of Congress. Next is the fact that, despite Barr's willingness to go boldly forward and lie to the Congress, Trump has handed him the keys to the nations intelligence agencies! Clearly someone who is openly mendacious, should not qualify to handle the nations most sensitive secrets. This is a most dangerous misuse of power that the President has exercised. There are so many very serious problems with Trump and everyone who has been associated with him, the Republicans can hardly call themselves patriots if they continue to shield him from his just desserts.
