President Donald Trump says he will nominate William Barr as the next attorney general – putting in place a seasoned Washington veteran who defended his decision to fire former FBI Director James Comey. Trump called Barr 'one of the most respected jurists in the country.' The nomination will be watched closely for its potential impact on the Robert Mueller probe. Barr was attorney general between 1991 and 1993, serving in the Justice Department at the same as Mueller did. He defended Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James Comey, a move that is wrapped up in a potential obstruction of justice investigation.
