Probe of the Russia investigation nearing conclusion

Let’s hope and pray so. Early voting begins on September 4th. Americans have a right to know the findings of John Durham’s report before they cast their vote. Watch Trump’s powerful new ad on Obamagate.

Trump administration’s probe of the Russia investigation may be nearing conclusion

By NBC News, August 5, 2020

WASHINGTON — The investigation ordered by Attorney General William Barr into how the CIA and the FBI looked into the Trump campaign’s connections to Russia’s 2016 election interference operation may be nearing a conclusion, people familiar with it say.

One indication is that the prosecutor in charge, Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham, has asked to interview former CIA Director John Brennan, according to a person familiar with the request. Brennan has agreed to be interviewed, and the details are being worked out, the person said.

Attorney General William Barr told Congress last month that he would not wait until after the election to present Durham’s findings if they are finalized. Barr has made clear he believes Obama administration officials acted wrongfully when they opened a counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign’s dealings with Russians, but the Justice Department’s inspector general found that the investigation was justified and untainted by political bias.

Democrats in Congress and elsewhere say the Barr-Durham investigation smacks of a politically motivated effort to help President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign.

Brennan, a vocal critic of Trump and an NBC News analyst, has been the subject of intense scrutiny by Durham. Brennan was director of the CIA from 2013 until the day of Trump’s inauguration. The New York Times reported in December that the prosecutor was reviewing Brennan’s emails, call logs and other records, which was confirmed to NBC News by a person familiar with the matter.

Brennan declined to comment for this story, but has previously called the Durham probe “bizarre.” The former CIA director questioned the legal basis for it, as have many other former Obama administration officials and Democratic lawmakers.

First described as a review, Durham’s probe morphed in part into a criminal investigation, but it’s unclear exactly what criminal allegations he is examining.

The Justice Department’s inspector general made a criminal referral pertaining to the conduct of Kevin Clinesmith, an FBI lawyer whom the IG accused of making a misrepresentation to a secret court that approved national security surveillance warrants. Specifically, the IG said Clinesmith altered an email in a way that hid the fact that former Trump adviser Carter Page had been a CIA source — information that would have been relevant to the court in the context of Page’s dealings with Russians.

NOBODY can be that dumb just by mistake. So I will do it. Step One: Declassify everything, and let the public decide.

Trump has done that many times!
When he does that it goes to the FBI who sits on it and when pressed and I mean really pressed they redact it and hide who is guilty.

I will convene my own grand jury. No law requires the FBI or judiciary to be involved. You will be a juror.

I can’t help but wonder how the dems seemed to move at lightening speed every time they tried to usurp the presidency and everything coming from the right has been moving slower than a snail.

And please note that even in this article we see reference to the Durham REPORT. It does not speak of the possible Durham INDICTMENTS. Do we need just another report? No. It’s a bad sign. I think the entire probe is dead in the water. But I’ll be more than happy to be wrong (hope against hope).

I’m not holding my breath – What have they already ” discovered ” just with all the FISA abuses ? and what do we hear of ANYONE being even remotely held accountable? fuc-ing crickets – I kick myself in the ass for not following thru in getting the hell outta this country in 1996

I know exactly how you feel. Thanks for your reply. If you don’t mind, I’d say 1996 was a long time ago. I sometimes dwell on past mistakes too, but if I can I try not to think about them. Best wishes, Jack

No sign of a grand jury, so no reason to believe indictments are pending.

Maybe because the Conservatives want the truth, but the Left doesn’t care because they will lie to get the outcome they want.

This investigation will be worse than Comey’s “indictment” of Hillary but nothing except (maybe) a few people we hardly heard of will get reprimanded.

Please set your expectations as low as you can. Like maybe anticipate that they indict Trump for spying on himself.

Be that it may I suggest Trump does exactly what Ovomit did to the T. Since we have no constitution and a 100% corrupt media/government he should be ok with getting away with it.

I get this queasy feeling we’ve all been had. We are all waiting for Godot. Nothing is going to happen. It’s all a sham, a fraud, a travesty perpetrated on the American people. John Durhma is going to take a big, smelly dump on all of us. Not one person has been indicted in this grand conspiracy. And we’ve already been told the ring leader, Barak Insane Obamao, is not even being considered for investigation. That’s like saying Hitler had nothing to do with war crimes!

Yes it seems we’ve all been had. I see it that way as well. Most of the commenters on this article see it that way. Sorry to say I’m mentally prepared for a big Durham nothingburger. Jack W.

A.G. Barr already said Obama and Biden weren’t being investigated, so what will be gained? Has Barr done anything about Hillary yet? What about Omar, incest and marrying her brother to fast track his U.S. citizenship and other illegal issues we read about?

Saying that the Durham investigation will ever amount to anything should be regarded as a joke.
Depending on that investigation to actually have an effect on the coming election should be regarded as a Democrat scheme to get Republican voters to stay home. Certainly Democrat voters won’t be affected by it, and if there is a negative report, the media will go into an absolute frenzy to discredit it and to mobilize Democrat voters to go to the polls. The idea that the facts matter or are even relevant in the current political situation is a delusion and fantasy.

Don’t hold your breath for the “investigation” to find anything more than the DOJ IG found.
