A Trump aide who worked as a White House liaison to the Department of Justice has been barred from the Department of Justice after she pushed people to give her information about the department’s election fraud investigation and other sensitive subjects. According to the Associated Press, Heidi Stirrup has worked as a liaison since earlier this year but was told in the last two weeks that she’d been banned.

Trump even implied he no longer had confidence in Barr.
