Attorney General Bill Barr said he will not be appointing a special counsel to investigate massive voter fraud allegations that occurred during the 2020 election.
Barr made the comments this morning during a press conference announcing charges against a terrorism suspect.
“If I thought a special counsel at this stage was the right tool, I would name one, but I haven’t and I’m not going to,” Barr said.
He also said he is not going to be appointing a special counsel to look into the alleged massive influence-peddling operations of Hunter Biden.
