For Special Counsel, on Voter Fraud.

President Donald Trump's recent proposal
to appoint a special counsel to investigate
his false claims of voter fraud.
If I thought a special counsel at this stage was the right tool and was appropriate, I would name one, but I haven't and I'm not going to, William Barr, U.S. Attorney General, via NPR News.
Trump has also suggested appointing a special counsel
to investigate President-elect Joe Biden's son, Hunter.
Hunter is under a federal investigation
involving tax issues.
I think (the Hunter Biden investigation is) being handled responsibly and professionally currently within the department, .., William Barr, U.S. Attorney General, via NPR News.
... and to this point I have seen no reason to appoint a special counsel, and I have no plan to do so before I leave, William Barr, U.S. Attorney General, via NPR News.

as U.S. Attorney General on Wednesday.
