Well, the good news is AG Barr is investigating now. You must be really relieved.
Isn't it interesting to see democrats say they want to get at the truth, when they are back peddling away from it, whenever it makes them look bad or corrupt.

Not sure 'interesting' is the word I would use. More like hypocritical.
The Fusion GPS investigation into Donald Trump was started by republicans who did not like Trump during the GOP primary. And it was republicans who first paid Fusion GPS to start the Trump investigation (democrats then later began funding the same Fusion GPS investigation into Trump.)
The conservative publication Washington Free Beacon first hired Fusion GPS to investigate Trump. And billionaire GOP donor Paul Singer provided the financial support to hire Fusion GPS to investigate Trump. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world...=.193122724deb
Questions for republicans,
Did the republicans who first hired Fusion GPS to investigate Donald Trump do anything wrong?
Should republican groups involved with Fusion GPS be investigated?
Or are the republicans who originally hired Fusion GPS to investigate Donald Trump innocent, and only democrats who later funded the same investigation guilty?
The Republicans acted legally. The Democrats did not "fund the same investigation". Instead, they conspired with government agents to spy on the Trump campaign illegally in hopes of finding something useful.
"Former president Barack Obama’s official campaign organization has directed nearly a million dollars to the same law firm that funneled money to Fusion GPS, the firm behind the infamous Steele dossier. Since April of 2016, Obama For America (OFA) has paid over $972,000 to Perkins Coie, records filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) show"
What a corrupt nightmare the Obama administration was. There's an excellent chance Obama’s campaign organization (OFA) paid Perkins Coie to funnel money to Fusion GPS to create the dossier that the Obama administration then used to justify secret surveillance of the Trump administration.
All I can say is that I'm in the wroooong business. I need to be in the dirty politics smear game.

The narrative seems to change from week to week, last week it was GCHQ who supposedly wiretapped Trump, this week it's back to Steele's Dossier and next week it's back to some other conspiracy.

There is "an excellent chance", huh ? No, there is a better chance that Trump paid a lot of money to keep porn stars quiet.
So are we glossing over the fact that Fusion GPS was initially hired by The Washington Free Beacon, a conservative news site to dig up dirt in 2015 on Trump? Yes the DNC picked up the dossier after the Beacon abandoned it. So here we are yet again with another conspiracy theory? Newsweek is reporting that the FEC records show that the pac Obama For America gave $972,000 to Perkins Coie, a law firm, in 2016 and 2017. The campaign gave the money to the law firm for legal services. Martin Nesbitt was the treasurer and Obama's friend. Did the same law firm funnel payments to Fusion GPS for the dossier? Yes, it did. Does that mean that Obama funneled the money for the Dossier? Where's the connection?
Look. This dossier garbage has been beaten to death to make the rubes "look over there." It's boring. Come up with some real facts and not these stupid conspiracy theories. Nothing is going to undo the Mueller investigation. Read the report. Barr's partisan book report didn't do it justice. You're supporting a crook.
