AG Barr Appoints John Durham as Special Counsel in Russia Probe Investigation
Finally, some very good news in the Durham investigation. Prosecutor John Durham is now Special Counsel John Durham.
Attorney General William Barr told The Associated Press on Tuesday he had appointed John Durham, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, who has been investigating the origins of the FBI’s Russia collusion investigation, as a special counsel. Barr made the appointment in October, but chose to wait until after the election to make the announcement.
Barr indicated that the Durham investigation “has been narrowing to focus more on the conduct of FBI agents who worked on the Russia investigation, known as Crossfire Hurricane.”
Barr told the AP, “I decided the best thing to do would be to appoint them under the same regulation that covered Bob Mueller, to provide Durham and his team some assurance that they’d be able to complete their work regardless of the outcome of the election.”
The AP report says the new designation provides Durham with “extra protection” and “gives him the authority of a special counsel to complete the work without being easily fired.”
“Under federal regulations, a special counsel can be fired only by the attorney general and for specific reasons such as misconduct, dereliction of duty or conflict of interest. An attorney general must document such reasons in writing.”
The AP obtained a copy of Barr’s October 19 order, which states that Durham is “authorized to investigate whether any federal official, employee or any person or entity violated the law in connection with the intelligence, counter-intelligence or law enforcement activities directed at the 2016 presidential campaigns, anyone associated with the campaigns or the Trump administration.”
A senior Justice Department official told the AP:
Although the order details that it is “including but not limited to Crossfire Hurricane and the investigation of Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III,” the Durham probe has not expanded. The official said that line specifically relates to FBI personnel who worked on the Russia investigation before the May 2017 appointment of Mueller, a critical area of scrutiny for both Durham and for the Justice Department inspector general, which identified a series of errors and omissions in surveillance applications targeting a former Trump campaign associate.
Barr appointed Durham in May 2019 to lead an administrative review into the origins of the FBI’s investigation into candidate Donald Trump’s campaign.
In September 2019, there were reports that Barr and Durham had traveled to Rome and London twice to meet with Italian intelligence officials. The following month, The New York Times reported that Durham’s probe had shifted into a criminal inquiry and that he had expanded his investigation.
Shortly after that, there were rumors that the Durham team had requested all of CIA Director John Brennan’s communications from his time at the agency.
During a Fox News interview in December, Barr estimated that Durham’s investigation would be completed in the summer of this year.
The anticipated report never materialized.
Two weeks ago, there were rumors that Durham was dropping his investigation. Within a day, however, those rumors were squashed by reports that he was moving “full-steam ahead.”
News that Durham has been upgraded to a special counsel is very welcome indeed. The Russian collusion investigation cast a shadow over Trump’s presidency for over two years. There are still many on the left who can’t quite let go of it. It will be very satisfying to see the perpetrators held accountable for what was the second most egregious hoax in political history.

“U.S. attorneys + FBI agents have been working to follow up specific complaints + info they’ve received, but ‘to date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election.’”
