There's a Small Problem With Barr's Profanity-Laced Claim About No Election Fraud

Yesterday, we reported how former Attorney General Bill Barr left no doubt he was exiting the Trump orbit when he told ABC's Jonathan Karl what he thought about the claims of election fraud.

Now, we pointed out how, even if he thought there was no election fraud, it was pretty vile to go to Karl, someone who was constantly attacking the Trump administration.

To my knowledge, Barr never interviewed one witness or reviewed one affidavit.

Barr quickly found that there was a logical explanation.

"In every other county, they count the ballots at the precinct, but in Wayne County, they bring them into one central counting place. So the boxes are coming in all night. The fact that boxes are coming in-well, that's what they do." [.]. Barr also looked into allegations that voting machines across the country were rigged to switch Trump votes to Biden votes.

He received two briefings from cybersecurity experts at the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI. "We realized from the beginning it was just bullshit," Barr told me, noting that even if the machines somehow changed the count, it would show up when they were recounted by hand.

"It's a counting machine, and they save everything that was counted. So you just reconcile the two. There had been no discrepancy reported anywhere, and I'm still not aware of any discrepancy."
