This is a top level person. AG Barr of the DOJ has a job, and it is also to support the law and protect the country. Unfortunately he has made it clear he believes his job is to protect the president, that the law doesn't apply to him, that he cannot be held accountable. If Barr knows this is a sensitive breach to the security of our country he is a traitor. If Trump made a self serving promise, he needs to be prosecuted.
Congress and the senate can handle classified information, they can deal with Trump's communications, and if there is nothing there it can be put to rest. The fact is that this is a serious breach of national interests or security. If there is nothing here it needs to be cleared.
This is an urgent matter that has legal requirements to allow congress to do the oversight that is their job. Let it leak if this president obstructs it.

If this is true then there should be evidence to support such a report. Not just someone making an allegation with out proof positive of a crime. This has happened many times before and has been proven wrong before. We must be careful about believing such reports, especially at this time, against President Trump. If it is true, I sincerely hope not, we should see what ever evidence is supplied to Congress and judge for ourselves. I care about anyone in government violating their oath of office whether it be the President or anyone in Congress or in the intelligence agencies. If this person has lied, he/her must be subject to prosecution. No matter what position they hold in this government. There have been too many who have gotten off scot free in the last few years.
