Investigating the Investigators – AG Barr Working with CIA and ODNI
Investigating the Investigators – AG Barr Working with CIA and ODNI… | The Last Refuge
5/14/2019
Against the backdrop of media reports surrounding U.S. Attorney John Durham, and an investigation into potentially corrupt 2016 investigators, perhaps it’s worthwhile to pause, evaluate, reset the outlook and review the backstories. There’s room for cautious optimism, but there’s also reason to temper expectations. First within the latest Fox News report, the following is noted: Fox News – […] Durham, known as a “hard-charging, bulldog” prosecutor, according to a source, will focus on the period before Nov. 7, 2016—including the use and assignments of FBI informants, as well as alleged improper issuance of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants. Durham was asked to help Barr to “ensure that intelligence collection activities by the U.S. Government related to the Trump 2016 Presidential Campaign were lawful and appropriate.”
A source also told Fox News that Barr is working “collaboratively” on the investigation with FBI Director Chris Wray, CIA Director Gina Haspel, and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, and that Durham is also working directly with Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, who is currently reviewing allegations of misconduct in issuance of FISA warrants, and the role of FBI informants during the early stages of the investigation.
Who was the CIA Deputy Director of the National Clandestine Service for Foreign Intelligence and Covert Action over Europe, while John Brennan and Peter Strzok were running their European 2016 counterintelligence operations?….That would be current CIA Director Gina Haspel.
This Barr “investigation” could end up with accountability; or this Barr “investigation” could unearth so much institutional corruption and gross malfeasance that Barr will stand at a podium and duplicate recent events.

Any investigation of the FBI involving Director Wray will be handled in a way designed Not to seek justice, but to protect the FBI. One begins to wonder why the founders didn’t come up with the bright idea of a federal police force.
Haspel and Wray (sounds like a bad vaudeville act) in the mix bothers me. Don’t trust either one of them. Go to a meeting and call all the other swamp rats to tell them what went down. Gives all of them to cover their fannies.
Could it also mean by going back before the election they are going to go after HRC, Comey, Loretta Lynch, Brennan, Clapper, and even into the WH [Obama] while trying to leave the DOJ and FBI still standing? Is this their way to preserve the institutions to which they belong? If they make a big splash with the former, the FBI and DOJ folk will seem small potatoes.
I don’t think I’m unique in hoping that people will be true blue and show personal integrity, while at the time in my hard, cynical heart I know they will try to skate.
I’m not confident a single high level perp will be indicted or prosecuted. I doubt there will be any official mention on WH involvement.
The core of my cynicism stems from the belief that, like slick willie, every perp will be welcomed and cheered on every biased MSM outlet as if nothing ever happened. Or as Yates and others have already demonstrated, as defiant heroes of the “resistance.”
Let them skate at your peril Mr. Barr. The message to any that have been paying attention and that actually give a rat’s about their gov't is, yes, there is a two tier justice system. And why should we trust it any longer? Why is their reputation more important than the citizens belief in and confidence in its LE?
