During an interview on Tuesday with Fox News host Bret Baier, Attorney General William Barr opened up about U.S. Attorney John Durham's ongoing investigation into the origins of the Russia investigation against then-candidate Donald Trump and his campaign.

The attorney general explained that he was "very troubled" by the findings so far and that the investigation is “working very aggressively to move forward" amid the coronavirus crisis.

“I think before the election, I think we’re concerned about the motive force behind the very aggressive investigation that was launched into the Trump campaign without, you know, with a very thin, slender reed as a basis for it,” Barr said. “It seemed that the bureau was sort of spring loaded at the end of July to drive in there and investigate a campaign.”

Barr then went on to drop a bombshell when he stated that the intelligence community seemed to purposely ignore key evidence so that their witch hunt into Trump could continue.

“But they seem to have ignored all the exculpatory evidence that was building up and continued Pell-mell to push it forward,” Barr added. “The other area of concern is that after the election, even though they were closing down some of that, as we’ve seen in the Flynn case, and say there’s nothing here, for some reason, they went right back at it, even at a time where the evidentiary support or claim support like the dossier was falling apart. And it’s very hard to understand why they continued to push and even make public testimony that they had an investigation going when it was becoming painfully obvious or should have been obvious to anyone that there was nothing there.”

The attorney general finished up the segment of the interview by talking about the issues with the intelligence community and how, with "no basis," they spied on a presidential campaign.

“For the first time in American history, the police organizations and the national security organizations were used to spy on a campaign and there was no basis for it,” Barr continued. “The media largely drove all kinds of sensational claims were being made about the president. That could have affected the election. And then and then later on in his administration, there were actions taken that really appear to be efforts to sabotage his campaign. And that has to be looked at.”

Barr also noted later on that he is "very troubled by" the findings that he has seen from the investigation so far.
