Countdown to Horowitz beginning

[Snarkhund]

The House is busy completely polarizing the country today.

All that anger with no real outlet for either tribe.

I remember in engineering school when at certain points the pressure became intolerable. I learned to take a deep breath and then try to pick out who would flip out before anyone else.

I got pretty good at it.

I would say we are at a low boil right now. Who exactly will lose the plot is a bit more difficult to say. Somebody is gonna trip, that much is clear.

Ahh. No.

You and your ilk churned endlessly trying to get Mueller report to say what it did not. And that churning was both before and after the report was released. You bought the hype lock, stock, and barrel- bigtime.

Stop the malarkey.

This is not true.

 

[Snarkhund]

This is not true.

It is true.

The old boy got up there to testify and claimed he had never heard of Fusion GPS, something regarded as IMPOSSIBLE for anyone actually involved in the report.

Massive extrapolation fail.

I guess it is your turn now with Horowitz Report so the Circle of Life continues...

No Congress has put out a useful piece of paper since the Constitutional Convention

There could at some point be an investigator who is not working just to create reports for Congress.

Let's just call him John Durham for now.

Thank you for your opinion but you’re missing the stream of the conversation was related to my personal take on the investigation and report.

Mueller did not testify well and the investigation was less than complete and thorough. I also take issue with some of the findings but my stance is and has been the Mueller report is the best we get and we have to move on.

Right wingers on this forum will not accept the Horowitz report like democrats did not accept the Kavanaugh confirmation.

This constant unwillingness to accept investigations is a big part of what is causing the bitterness in the political discourse.

We all have to move on. And I say this to you directly, Mr. Snarkhound. You resent the FBI for no other reason than politics. Your condemnation of the FBI is baseless.

Is this the end of the Shillary Obama cabal?

Report: Barr attorney can't provide evidence Trump was set up by DOJ

The attorney handpicked by Attorney General William Barr to investigate the origins of the probe into the Trump campaign and Russian election interference has reportedly found no evidence to support claims from conservatives that the case was a setup by U.S. intelligence officials.

Sources told The Washington Post that John Durham, the U.S. attorney chosen by Barr to lead an investigation, told the Justice Department's inspector general (IG), who conducted his own probe, that he has found no evidence to support claims that a Maltese professor who spoke with former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos was secretly a U.S. intelligence asset.

Allies of the president have claimed for months that the professor, Josef Mifsud, who spoke with Papadopoulos about the possibility of obtaining Hillary Clinton's stolen emails, was actually an asset of U.S. intelligence agencies seeking to set up the Trump campaign on criminal charges.

Sources close to the investigation added to the Post that the draft report written by IG David Horowitz is likely to detail instances of misconduct by FBI agents involved with the investigation, but to conclude that top FBI officials did not act with political bias during the 2016 election.

“His excellent work has uncovered significant information that the American people will soon be able to read for themselves,” a spokeswoman for the Justice Department told the Post of the report's upcoming release. “Rather than speculating, people should read the report for themselves next week, watch the Inspector General’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, and draw their own conclusions about these important matters.”

Republicans have argued since the inception of the now-shuttered special counsel investigation into the Trump campaign that the probe was launched improperly based on unfounded accusations detailed in a dossier crafted by an ex-British intelligence agent, Christopher Steele, and used by the Obama administration to hurt President Trump's chances of being elected.

Top former officials at the FBI have roundly dismissed that claim, arguing that the investigation was conducted without political bias.

even if accepted as true, the article seems to be reporting on just the mifsud scenario.

just one piece of the vast puzzle that links over into the intel agencies, state department, white house etc. and over to europe, etc. if all of that has settled then Durham will be closing down shop soon, right? even though he just requested more staff and resources.

otherwise.....
