President Donald Trump accused the U.S. attorney assigned to investigate former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton of doing “absolutely NOTHING” in a Twitter post Wednesday morning.

Trump blasted U.S. Attorney for Utah John Huber, who was tapped by then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions to probe the Clinton Foundation and its possible ties to the sale of a Canadian uranium company, which had mining stakes in the U.S., to a Russian agency. Huber was also told to take a deep dive into how Clinton handled classified emails.

Huber closed the investigations without filing any charges back in January.

Trump called Huber “a garbage disposal unit” in a tweet for closing the investigation, which lasted several years, without charges.

Trump praised a fake Twitter account for Huber with the handle Undercover Huber as a “great spoof” that is “funny” before he ripped the real Huber, who is active on Twitter.

“Undercover Huber is a great spoof, funny, but at the same time sad, because the real @JohnWHuber did absolutely NOTHING,” Trump tweeted. “He was a garbage disposal unit for important documents & then, tap, tap, tap, just drag it along & run out of time. A.G. Jeff Sessions was played like a drum!”
