Barr Talks to House Select Committee with No Leaks: Two Important Takeaways from this Revelation

Representative Bennie Thompson, the Chairman of the House select committee investigating the insurrection, disclosed yesterday that the committee has been speaking with former Attorney General Bill Barr. Importantly, there had ben no reporting - no leaks - of this fact prior to Rep. Thompson's disclosure. What lessons can we take away from the fact that a congressional committee can conduct a high-stakes, high-pressure investigation without any leaks? And are there parallels that can be draw between the leak-free nature of the January 6 panel's investigation and any investigations that may be up and running in the Department of Justice?
