Barr’s manifest interference in these cases—which Floridaman, who appointed him, is celebrating this morning—was started by the sudden shuttering of the special counsel’s office shortly after his confirmation and the transfer of its ongoing matters to US Attorneys’ offices.
Those transfers meant, for the Flynn and Stone cases, the DC US Attorney Jessie Liu stood in the shoes of Robert Mueller.
In recent days, Trump replaced Liu with one of Barr’s lackeys, initially promising her a Treasury job, and then unceremoniously dumping her.

Mueller’s successor actually was fired here, Mueller’s cases were damaged, and all the line prosecutors could do is resign.
