Flashback: Democrats long trashed Durham probe as 'politically motivated investigation'
Fox News
Democrats like Reps. Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler once pushed to protect then-special counsel Robert Mueller to ensure that his Russia investigation would continue without interference, but they sang an entirely different tune when the Trump administration appointed John Durham as special counsel to continue investigating the origins of that same Russia probe.
Durham was appointed special counsel by then-Attorney General William Barr on Oct. 19, 2020, giving Durham a degree of added independence, as he can only be fired by an attorney general or someone acting in that capacity. Barr revealed the appointment on Dec. 1, 2020, about a month after the presidential election.
