Attorney General William Barr brushed aside claims that he lied to Congress about how he handled special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, saying it is “laughable” to suggest he would perjure himself.

“I think it’s largely being made to try to discredit me, partly because they may be concerned about the outcome of a review of what happened during the election,” Barr said Friday during an exclusive interview with Fox News. “But obviously you can look at the face of my testimony and you can see on its face that there is nothing inaccurate about it.”
