Mediaite.com: Joy Reid - ‘It Feels Like the Seeds of a Cover-Up Are Here’
On MSNBC this morning, Joy Reid talked with her panel about what Attorney General Bill Barr will ultimately do now that he’s reviewing the full Mueller report, even suggesting possible “seeds of a cover-up.”
In a segment first flagged by The Nation‘s Aaron Maté, Reid asked if there’s “any reason to have any confidence in William Barr here.”
Former Watergate prosecutor Nick Akerman said, “So far so good. The letter says all the right things, and he’s really adhered to the letter of the regulations, which is good.”
Right now, he added, all they can do is wait and see, but he’s encouraged so far.
Reid read from Barr’s letter––the part where the AG pledged “as much transparency as possible”––and said, “I remain cynical.”
