Durham’s statement is unprecedented and inappropriate. In the 30 year history of the DOJ IG, no prosecutor working on a related matter has ever issued a statement designed to contradict or undermine IG findings. It is grounds for a disciplinary referral.

This was an attempted overthrow and a lot of people were in on it, and they got caught.
president* Never Truthful


Debunked trump and Barr conspiracy theories.
(Although they will still push them)

The Steele dossier didn’t play a role in opening the Russia probe

Neither did Lisa Page or Peter Strzok

Obama never wiretapped Trump Tower


The FBI didn’t implant spies in Trump’s campaign


Joseph Mifsud was never an FBI informant

There were some faults but no corruption unlike the investigation of trump that found rampant corruption. You’re once again relying on liar Bill Barr.
Why do you hate our law enforcement?

In fairness, the President has said far more negative things about our Law Enforcement beginning with his first appointed AG to the FBI, NSA officials, Military Leaders, Intelligence Services so please avoid that crap you spit out.

I wonder why you didn’t address these exact same comments when they were used to attack Trump supports. Maybe you don’t have any integrity?

First, I have never supported the President and at least you have not denied he has said disparaging words about the above list. Secondly before you question someone else's integrity you should look inward before looking outward.

When Jim Jordan was a backer of impeachment
In 2015 and 2016, Jordan repeatedly urged impeachment of Internal Revenue Service commissioner John Koskinen because his agency had destroyed email backup tapes that Republicans in Congress sought to probe whether the Obama administration’s IRS deliberately delayed processing tax exemption requests from conservative groups.

And last year, Jordan led an effort to oust Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, arguing that he intentionally withheld embarrassing documents and information from Congress, failed to comply with congressional subpoenas, and otherwise abused the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

Because with trumpers it’s simple hypocrisy. You consistently refuse to hold the lying grifting prick to the same standard or any standard of decency you demand of others.

Let’s all remember one of the most recent crimes of the trump crime family, his charity. trump has admitted to using his charity as a personal piggy bank and in addition to paying a two million dollar fine the three officers, being his oldest children, must undergo mandatory training to teach them how to avoid defrauding charities.

If you read this document, the first thing you would think of is they got something on Donald Trump,” he said. “It is stunning, it is damning, it’s salacious, and it’s a bunch of crap
Lindsey Graham on the Steele Dossier

Since republicans can’t seem to temper their outrage over this raw intelligence report that no one is taking seriously, let’s have an official full investigation and once and for all prove nothing it contains is true. It will be worth the expense so they will stfu and end the moaning and bitching.

All anyone should ever need is the treasonous prick publicly announcing to the world he believes Putin over the US. One of of the lowest of lows by the lowest of lows for the intelligence agencies.
President Putin says it's not Russia. I don't see any reason why it would be

Just look at the subservient wussy.

Horowitz: FBI Created ‘Fraudulent Evidence’ In Investigation, Implies ‘Illegal Surveillance’

Justice Department Inspector General (IG) Michael Horowitz confirmed during his testimony in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday that the FBI used fraudulent evidence that it created as the basis for a sworn statement to the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court that it used to obtain a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act application to surveil the Trump campaign during the 2016 presidential election.

“A lawyer at the FBI creates fraudulent evidence, alters an email that is in turn used as the basis for a sworn statement to the court that the court relies on,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said. “Am I stating that accurately?”

“That’s correct,” Horowitz confirmed. “That’s what occurred.”

The former FBI Director James Comey said this week that your report vindicates him. Is that a fair assessment of your report?” Graham asked.

“You know, I think the activities we found here don’t vindicate anyone who touched this,” Horowitz said.

Graham continued to read a conversation between a news reporter and Comey.

Reporter: Can I ask you a question on FISA abuse? The major issue for the Republicans. Do you have total confidence in the dossier when you used it to secure a surveillance warrant and also in the subsequent renewals?

(This was asked in December of 2018, about a year ago.)

Comey: I have total process that the FISA process that the FISA process was followed. That the entire case was followed in a thoughtful, responsible way by DOJ and the FBI. I think the notion that FISA was abused here is nonsense.

“Would it be fair to say you take issue with that statement?” Graham asked Horowitz.

“Certainly, our findings were that there were significant problems,” Horowitz said.

Rep. Adam Schiff, put out a response memo with competing claims:

  1. FBI and DOJ officials did not omit material information from the FISA warrant.
  2. The DOJ “made only narrow use of information from Steele’s sources about Page’s specific activities in 2016.”
  3. In subsequent FISA renewals, DOJ provided additional information that corroborated Steele’s reporting.
  4. The Page FISA warrant allowed the FBI to collect “valuable intelligence.”
  5. “Far from ‘omitting’ material facts about Steele, as the Majority claims, DOJ repeatedly informed the Court about Steele’s background, credibility, and potential bias.”
  6. The FBI conducted a “rigorous process” to vet Steele’s allegations, and the Page FISA application explained the FBI’s reasonable basis for finding Steele credible.
  7. Steele’s prior reporting was used in “criminal proceedings.”
Each of these claims were found by Horowitz to be false.

Horowitz found that FBI and DOJ officials did in fact omit critical material information from the FISA warrant, including several items exculpatory to Page. Material facts were not just omitted but willfully hidden through doctoring of evidence.

The warrants were based on Steele’s dossier, which was known by January 2017 to be ridiculously uncorroborated. The renewals did not find information that corroborated Steele’s reporting. The warrants clearly didn’t allow the FBI to collect valuable intelligence. And Steele’s prior reporting was not used in criminal proceedings.

“We found that the FBI did not have information corroborating the specific allegations against Carter Page in Steele’s reporting when it relied upon his reports in the first FISA application or subsequent renewal applications,” the executive summary of the report says.
