Barr’s exit comes after he announced the Department of Justice found no evidence of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election
Attorney General Bill Barr is leaving his role at the White House, outgoing President Donald Trump announced Monday. The exit comes after he said last week that the Department of Justice found no evidence of the widespread voter fraud Trump baselessly claimed took place during the 2020 election. “Just had a very nice meeting with Attorney General Bill Barr at the White House. Our relationship has been a very good one, he has done an outstanding job! As per letter, Bill will be leaving just before Christmas to spend the holidays with his family,” tweeted Trump, who has yet to concede the election to President-elect Joe Biden.
