So much for Trump’s October surprise of “the biggest political crime in American history.”

In a blow to Trump, AG Barr's investigation into Flynn's 'unmasking' ended without criminal charges or a public report

In a blow to Trump, AG Barr's investigation into Flynn's 'unmasking' ended without criminal charges or a public report
A Justice Department investigation into whether Obama-era officials improperly "unmasked" former national security adviser Michael Flynn's name in US intelligence reports has ended with no charges and no public report, The Washington Post reported.
Attorney General William Barr asked John Bash, the US attorney for the Western District of Texas, to look into the matter as part of an investigation into the origins of the Russia probe being conducted by John Durham, the US attorney for the District of Connecticut.
But a Washington Post report earlier in May debunked that allegation when it revealed that Flynn's name was never "masked" in the first place.
Moreover, the list documented unmasking requests made through the National Security Agency, while transcripts documenting Flynn's conversations with Kislyak were an FBI product, meaning the names on the declassified list Grenell released are unrelated to Flynn's conversations with Kislyak.
