Probably called Barr on the carpet one last time to convince him to do something that would overturn the results and was rebuffed. That’s why the whole first paragraph of the letter is about election fraud allegations.

Whoa! No one could have predicted that the guy who sources said compared Trump’s Tweets to that of “a deposed king” would have his resignation announced on the day that Trump loses the electoral college. Goodness, these things seem to come out of nowhere.
