UPDATED: Peter Navarro: Bluto Barr Shoulda Been Fired A Year Earlier
In an interview this morning with Maria Bartiromo, former Senior White House Economic and Trade Advisor Peter Navarro ripped disgraced former AG Bluto Barr. Said Navarro (almost verbatim), Barr should've been fired a year before he was. During the last year Barr was working against the Trump administration.
The context for these remarks was the issue of Executive Orders. As Navarro explained, the last step in getting an Executive Order approved is that the DoJ's Office of Legal Counsel has to sign off on its legality. According to Navarro, Barr slow walked many important Executive Orders during the last year of the Trump administration, but fast tracked the 17 Executive Orders that Zhou Baiden signed on Day One of the new regime.
UPDATE:
In a similar phone call from Bill Barr to me, he made it clear that investigating the evidence behind the claims were not his first priority... https://t.co/WGrUkypIyX
