The man that has more knowledge and authority has spoken

It’s a big deal he felt the need to speak out now

What say you?

Statement of U.S. Attorney John H. Durham

I have the utmost respect for the mission of the Office of Inspector General and the comprehensive work that went into the report prepared by Mr. Horowitz and his staff. However, our investigation is not limited to developing information from within component parts of the Justice Department. Our investigation has included developing information from other persons and entities, both in the U.S. and outside of the U.S. Based on the evidence collected to date, and while our investigation is ongoing, last month we advised the Inspector General that we do not agree with some of the report’s conclusions as to predication and how the FBI case was opened.

Durham is basically telling the public not to place too much importance on the IG's "conclusions".

People should also keep in mind that Horowitz has zero prosecuting powers. Durham does. I would advise all of the senior FBI and DOJ leadership...both past (Obama administration) and present (Trump administration) to be very concerned. Not by the IG's conclusion, but by the actual evidence in the report.
 
I trust literally nothing Barr touches, and thus, I will not trust this report until vetted as valid without his input.

You can thank Barr for this.

IG report dismisses the idiocy of Trump's CT claims. Some of you have to eat crow.

Actually the report supports everything that we said and there are criminal charges that need to be investigated given what we know about what the fbi did in the case.

Again leftist ignore facts.
 
Where , oh where is all this illegal activity that Repubs claim exist? Is it in the same box as all the Hillary evidence of wrongdoing?

Are Republicans the only party that still uses magical fairies to determine guilt?

Trumpsters yelled “just you wait” for three years in anticipation of the Horowitz Report.

The bellowed nonsense about “fruit of a poisonous tree” and falsely claimed that the Steele “dossier” was the basis for the investigation over and over again,

Now they’re sifting the footnotes for rationalizations for why the moment they’ve all been waiting for for years didn’t tell them what they had been told to expect.

Durham Report is what matters.

Not any more it doesn't. You can thank your boys Trump, Barr and Durham for that.

lly going to get out of a Durham investigation is more grist for YOUR own silo mill. The rest of us will simply look at it as another element of Trumpian political hackery unless it is absolute iron clad proof of a conspiratorial cabal v Trump and guess what IT WON'T BE.

See what Trump and his allies are willing to give up for political hackery. Lets tarnish what might be a real and valuable investigative effort and instead opt for short term political gain. How much does that sound like the Trump gang prioritizing an announcement of an investigation into the Bidens and Burisma over an actual Investigation? How much does that sound like Barr releasing his "opinion" of the Mueller Report ahead of instead of alongside the Mueller Report which of course allowed Barr to use segment fragments from the Mueller Report and treat them as actual quotes WHICH THEY WERE NOT!

You Boneheads see a trend here or still have your heads stuck in the sand?

Again, rightists move the goalposts. No "spying" happened, no "abuse" happened. Hannity's lies are now dismissed, and so are the bleating whines of people like you.

They don't get it. They're so focused, like a dog on a ball, on single issues they completely ignore all ablative or collateral. It's hilarious to watch.

Durham already dismisses your claims. You are already eating crow.

Durham has already stated that it is a criminal investigation. If you remember in Hillary's case several were given immunity and several others pleaded the fifth.

I'm eating nothing. I would perhaps trust the Durham report if AG Barr wasn't a zealot for a monarchist executive. Thus, you have no one to blame but Barr for his partisan insanity, for destroying my trust in this administration to do anything fairly or justly.

You guys have alot of work to do to restore my trust.

Get started.

Durham has a stellar reputation. Time will tell.
 
Bad enough that Barr decided to contradict his own IG and put himself at odds with the Dir FBI. But Durham commenting as he did while conducting an on-going investigation was more pure political hackery. If Durham does actually find anything, it will be tainted by his public statement yesterday.

So much for Durham's stellar reputation. Thrown down the rat hole for the political benefit of one Donald J Trump.

John Durham is truth seeker....history of straight shooter.

Barr or Trump couldn’t control him.

In October, yet here we sit two months later and only Trump associates are in prison or on their way...
