Attorney General Barr taps Connecticut prosecutor to investigate origins of Mueller probe

Barr’s decision to tap John Durham, the U.S. attorney for the District of Connecticut, marks at least the third ongoing inquiry into whether the FBI made missteps when it applied to a special federal court for a warrant to conduct surveillance on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
