(CNN) Top House Democrats said Tuesday that Attorney General William Barr does not deserve the benefit of the doubt when it comes to special counsel Robert Mueller's report. "If he came to the job clean, without any history in this investigation, I would say, yes, give him the benefit of the doubt. But he didn't," Schiff told CNN's Wolf Blitzer on "The Situation Room." He said Barr "wrote a 19-page legal memo, which was basically a job application, saying, if you pick me for your AG, I will have your back on the obstruction of justice case. In June 2018, Barr, who was a private citizen at the time, authored a memo saying he thought the obstruction investigation was "fatally misconceived."
