12. What about the 14 ongoing investigations - can Barr stop those as well?

We're concentrating our attention on Trump, the presidency, and the ineptitude of a DOJ ruling that hamstrung our special counsel. What about the dozens of other Trumpies that are not similarly protected? Will the hammer fall on them in due time? Or will they, too, skirt justice by stacking the playing field with cheaters, liars and thieves?

And what needs to happen to override the DOJ ruling?

What would have happened if Trump, indeed, shot someone dead in plain sight, on 5th Avenue? Would he still be protected by this inane internal ruling? Could the Senate still determine there wasn't enough there to impeach? What kind of country are we, anyway?
