For the record:
POTUS… Is allowing this to happen to set an example.
He didn't have to do any of this.
No, I'm not talking about running for President, everyone already knows nobody put a gun to his head to register his candidacy.
No, this is to show the world that all it takes is a few good men.
He could have stopped this Constitutionally, at any time, being one of the individuals (as President) that can see behind the curtain, just as Barr says.
This is why there was so much commotion, and so many shenanigans concerning security clearances at the beginning of the term.
The deep state knew something was up, but didn't know what. So they played some whack-a-mole and failed at it.
Not all the traps are full yet.
