Former Attorney General William Barr conceded that there will be no civil or criminal accountability for the FBI after the controversial Russiagate investigation and coverup that targeted former President Donald Trump.

When asked by the Washington Examiner in a Nov. 3 article about whether he believes “there will be any accountability” for the FBI’s actions toward Trump, Barr replied, “Accountability in the sense of criminal or civil penalties? No.”
