Hillary Clinton attacked Attorney General William Barr after his Wednesday testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

In an MSNBC interview, Clinton said that Barr’s conduct regarding special counsel Robert Mueller’s report was not professional, and she thinks Barr is working for Trump rather than for the people.

“I think he is doing the job he was hired to do. He auditioned for the job with his 19-page memo basically saying there is no such thing as obstruction of justice when it comes to a president. He was hired to make sure that was a reality,” Clinton said. “He has behaved in that way."

Prior to becoming attorney general, Barr sent an unsolicited memo to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein warning the Justice Department that the Mueller investigation could do lasting damage to the presidency.

“I think that the Democrats on the committee did a good job today in exposing that he is the president's defense lawyer, he is not the attorney general of the United States,” she said.

Barr testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee Wednesday and was scheduled to testify before the House Judiciary Committee Thursday, although the Justice Department has since announced he will not show up to the hearing, citing “unprecedented” conditions put on by Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y.
