(CNN)Attorney General William Barr is considering leaving his post before January 20, the day President Donald Trump leaves office, a source with knowledge of the matter confirmed to CNN.
The source confirmed that Barr is not happy with Trump, writing that Barr "is not someone who takes bullying and turns the other cheek!"
"He has not made a final decision," the source said.
The New York Times was first to report on Barr's thinking. CNN has reached out to the Justice Department for comment.

(3,426 posts)So Barr heads to the office Monday morning whistling the tune should I stay or should I go. He gets to the office only to find it is locked down. A minion standing there by the door ask's Barr, did you get his message ? What message, who's message Barr says back. You know says the minion ,it's like a pink slip ! Barr says oh no you are sadly mistaken as he straightens his tie , Executives are never fired ,we simply leave ! Maybe so said the minion in the world you came from but not in Trump world . ! Isn't that just nuts !
