Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., on Friday sent a letter to the Department of Justice’s inspector general demanding he investigates whether the White House had urged Attorney General William Barr to investigate President Trump’s political opponents. KAMALA HARRIS TEARS INTO BARR AT SENATE HEARING, AS 2020 DEMS PILE ON AG“I request that the Office of the Inspector General investigate whether the Attorney General has received or acted upon such improper requests,” she said. Harris quizzed Barr whether Trump or anyone at the White House had asked him to investigate anyone -- an exchange it detailed in its letter to Horowitz. When Harris asked if anyone had hinted, suggested or inferred, Barr said he didn’t know. The letter is the latest pushback from Democrats against Barr since the release of the Mueller report.
