Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen asked him directly if he believed spying on the campaign occurred, and he said, "Yes I think spying did occur. The question is whether it was adequately predicated" — meaning whether it was legally justified.
Now the republicans want to waste time and money on a question that has already been answered in the negative. Weren't you guys literally just bitching about the cost of the Mueller investigation?

Release the Mueller report. All of it. Not the Barr cover-up version. Now.

Worried that it’s all falling apart, huh?
another supposed “conspiracy theory” likely true. Spying did occur, Dems better hope it is found to be legal spying instead of the illegal kind.

But but It want spying it was “investigating”!
Investigations also have to be legitimate and legal. Fun days ahead as we get to the bottom of all this.

So now you want him to break the law. Funny, how when the Starr report was coming out, that vile Nadler was beside himself that it was going to come out and he and his cohorts tried everything to stop that from happening. Now he and these idiots are demanding? The hypocrisy is literally dizzying.

Chill out, he probably is referring to the redacted report, not the 4 page summary that tells nothing.

If Barr is covering up something than I guess Holder was the master of covering things up under Obama.

In looking at his expression, I imagine many thoughts rolled around in AG Barr's head, but he kept his cool and did not proceed to tell Sheehan how stupid she is. Gotta hand it to the man.
If it were me, I'd have cut loose with a tirade over spying. Guess that's why I work as a helicopter pilot and not a "lawyuh!" In aviation, we cannot afford to suffer fools . In the AG business, dealing with democrat buffoons in Congress is part of the job description.

Everyone knows Barr is full of it. Everyone.
