BARR sees no legal path to prosecute Hunter Biden or election fraud claims

Outgoing Attorney General William Barr said he saw “no reason” to appoint a special counsel on potential election fraud or the tax investigation into the son of President-elect Joe Biden.

“I have not seen a reason to appoint a special counsel and I have no plan to do so before I leave,” he said.

Hunter Biden is under federal investigation for tax fraud and linked to corrupt business dealings in China.

Barr also told The Associated Press in a previous interview that he had seen no evidence of widespread voting fraud, despite President Donald Trump's claims to the contrary.

Barr resigned from the AG psost last week and will not be returning to Washington.
