Democratic lawmakers insist Durham resign
[CT] Washington ‐ Congressional Democrats who fear Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham may be conducting a partisan investigation into the origins of the FBI’s probe into Russian meddling in U.S. elections are calling on him to resign.

Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., has written Attorney General William Barr and Durham, saying "neither of you possess the integrity necessary to serve in the Department of Justice."

Signed by 10 of Johnson’s House Democratic colleagues‐but none from Connecticut ‐ the letter’s demand for Barr’s resignation is not unique.

In May, for instance, Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal said Barr should "probably resign" because, the senator said, the attorney general had mislead the public about the conclusions of former special counsel Robert Mueller’s report into Russian meddling.

But calls for Durham’s resignation are new.

The letter ‐ signed by Johnson, Reps. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., William Lacy Clay, D-Mo., Jared Huffman, D-Calif., Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., and five other progressive Democrats ‐ said Barr and Durham should be ousted because they "inappropriately interfered in independent Department of Justice investigations and intentionally used (their) positions to mislead the American public in defense of President Donald J. Trump."
