I would call this lying.
To recap:
— Elie Honig (@eliehonig) August 24, 2022
– Mueller failed by refusing to state a conclusion
– Barr publicly distorted Mueller’s findings
– DOJ drafted this flimsy, ass-covering memo
– Barr misled a federal court about this bogus memo
– Garland appealed on Barr’s behalf, and lost.

BREAKING: no discussion in memo of Barr telling Special Counsel Mueller that he should make the decision whether Trump obstructed justice. Why? Because new DOJ memo reveals they thought Mueller Report could be read to say he did obstruct! So Barr shd say the opposite.
