William Barr, who served during the first administration of Donald Trump, secretly cooperated with Fani Willis in efforts to prevent Trump from returning to the presidency. According to the narrative, these claims come from whistleblower Patrícia Lélis, who says Barr participated in private meetings with Willis and other political and media figures to coordinate legal and media strategies targeting Trump.
The article states that Lélis worked for the public relations firm of Armstrong Williams in 2021 and claims she attended numerous meetings between 2021 and 2023. During those meetings, she says Barr and Willis discussed ways to obstruct Trump politically ahead of the 2024 election. As evidence, she reportedly supplied boxes of handwritten notes to Project Veritas documenting conversations and plans.
One meeting allegedly occurred on September 6, 2021, involving Barr and Shermichael Singleton. According to the text, participants discussed using media narratives to support congressional investigations related to January 6. Lélis’s notes allegedly said the investigation would focus on individuals close to Trump and seek prosecutions. Barr reportedly named additional targets including Steve Bannon, Rudy Giuliani, Stewart Rhodes, Enrique Tarrio, and Jeffrey Clark.
The text further claims Barr met Willis and special counsel Jack Smith in March 2022 to discuss forthcoming charges against Trump involving classified documents. Lélis allegedly noted Barr predicted an FBI search of Mar-a-Lago, which later occurred.
Another reported meeting in early 2023 supposedly involved Barr advising Willis to bring racketeering charges under Georgia’s RICO statute because such cases are difficult to defend. The article presents this as a key moment leading to Willis’s later prosecution of Trump and several co-defendants over efforts to challenge Georgia’s 2020 election results.
Finally, the text claims the broader objective of these meetings was to stop Trump politically rather than pursue neutral law enforcement. It also alleges Willis coordinated with a social media team to produce anti-Trump content supporting the prosecution. The article offers these accusations through Lélis’s account, presenting them as evidence of a coordinated campaign involving legal, political, and media actors.
