Barr Watch
Democracy 21 is a leader in tracking and challenging the improprieties of Attorney General William Barr. We have filed seven complaints with the Inspector General and the Office of Professional Responsibility at the Justice Department calling for investigations into Barr’s misuse and abuse of his office to protect, defend and promote the personal political interests of President Trump. We have published articles and issued statements challenging Barr’s failure to carry out the core mission of the Justice Department “to administer fair and impartial justice for all Americans.” We have documented a record that shows Barr is serving as a political adviser and campaign aide for President Trump rather than serving the American people as the nation’s chief law enforcement officer. We have demonstrated that William Barr is unfit to serve as the Attorney General of the United States.
