Barr has followed President Donald Trump’s cue in misrepresenting the report’s findings, contradicting the work of his own Justice Department and Inspector General Michael Horowitz. Speaking with host Anderson Cooper on CNN Tuesday, the channel’s chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin delivered an impassioned censure of Barr’s support for the president. “The attorney general of the United States is a Fox News bot, and it’s an outrage,” Toobin said, describing Barr’s assertion that the FBI was “wiring people up” to spy on the Trump campaign as “a complete invention....

The sixth-year tackle didn’t seem overly worried about playing Miami, which beat the Bills 21-19 in Week 3 before falling 32-29 in snowy conditions at Buffalo in Week 15.
