Durham report released

[BackAgain]

So, in your world this equals "Biden WANTS to pay MIGRANTS $450,000 for breaking US immigration LAWS?

Did it ever happen?

So, in your world, you just ignore the information on a perfectly credible news report.

What about the fifty former intel. agents who perjured themselves in a letter defending Hunter?

Did the letter go before a court or was sworn into evidence by Congress?

If not then all they did was lie

The only people who actually colluded with Russia were on the Trump campaign team.

Don Jr. also tried to collude with Russia, but he bungled it, because that's the kind of idiot he is.

In addition to the Russian infiltration of DNC and DCCC computer systems, between March and August 2016, the FBI became aware of numerous attempts to hack into state election systems. These included confirmed access into elements of multiple state or local electoral boards using tactics, techniques, and procedures associated with Russian state-sponsored actors. 163 The FBI learned that Russian efforts also included cyber-enabled scanning and probing of election related infrastructure in several states.

It was in this context that the FBI received information on July 28, 2016, about a conversation between Papadopoulos and an official of a Friendly Foreign Government (FFG) in May 2016 during which Papadopoulos "suggested the Trump team had received some kind of suggestion" from Russia that it could assist this process with the anonymous release of information during the campaign that would be damaging to candidate Clinton and President Obama. As described below, the FBI opened the Crossfire Hurricane investigation 3 days after receiving this information.

Separately, on August 2, 2016, Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort met in New York City with his long-time business associate Konstantin Kilimnik, who the FBI assesses to have ties to Russian intelligence. Kilimnik requested the meeting to deliver in person a peace plan for Ukraine that Manafort acknowledged to the Special Counsel’s Office was a “backdoor” way for Russia to control part of eastern Ukraine; both men believed the plan would require candidate Trump’s assent to succeed (were he to be elected President).

[snip]

And in February 2019, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia found that Manafort lied to the Office and the grand jury concerning his interactions and communications with Konstantin Kilimnik about Trump Campaign polling data and a peace plan for Ukraine.

[snip]

Manafort instructed Rick Gates, his deputy on the Campaign and a longtime employee, to provide Kilimnik with updates on the Trump Campaign—including internal polling data, although Manafort claims not to recall that specific instruction. Manafort expected Kilimnik to share that information with others in Ukraine and with Deripaska. Gates periodically sent such polling data to Kilimnik during the campaign.



Just to fill you in on Deripaska:

Paul Manafort served on the Trump Campaign, including a period as campaign chairman, from March to August 2016. Manafort had connections to Russia through his prior work for Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska and later through his work for a pro-Russian regime in Ukraine. Manafort stayed in touch with these contacts during the campaign period through Konstantin Kilimnik, a longtime Manafort employee who previously ran Manafort’s office in Kiev and who the FBI assesses to have ties to Russian intelligence.

That's what was found to be faked. Especially the findings by the FBI. That agency cannot be reformed. It must be dismantled.

I did not ignore anything. The claim was that Biden WANTED to do this. The link did not support that claim

It would have been simpler and more honest of you to just say ”oh.”

Your petty and disingenuous quibble is noted.

 

[Rust_Cohle]

Thank you. I like to read the reports themselves. Yes I am that lame.

Hey Zinc what happened to your mod status LOL

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Your petty and disingenuous quibble is noted.

So, this is your way of agreeing that there is no evidence Biden WANTED to do this.

Thanks!

Pizza time!

Have a good one

A giant scam from Day 1

We have the Durham Report - a running thread:

The Clinton campaign plan to link Trump-Russia - known to the CIA - was briefed to President Obama, VP Biden, AG Lynch, and FBI Director Comey
The FBI and DOJ restricted two investigations into Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election:

1) The Clinton Foundation investigation

2) Illegal foreign contributions to the Clinton Campaign

"No investigative activities occurred for months"
Crossfire Hurricane was opened as a "full investigation" -

Yet days after it was opened, Peter Strzok was essentially telling a London FBI employee that "there's nothing to this" twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
According to an FBI CHS in early 2016, the Clinton Campaign was "fully aware" of and "ok with" a foreign contribution in violation of federal law.

The FBI agent didn't get receipts - and asked the source to stay away from the Clinton campaign.
The FBI made "no effort" to investigate "the Clinton campaign's acceptance of an illegal "campaign contribution that was made by the FBI's own long-term CHS."
The Carter Page FISA was submitted under intense pressure from the FBI leadership.

FBI Director James Comey, in particulary, wanted the Carter Page FISA - badly.

Comey to McCabe: "Where is the FISA, where is the FISA?" twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
FBI leadership was so concerned about what its agents were finding about the Steele memos that they ordered:

"no more memos were to be written"

Do not "document any recommendations, context, or analysis"

(cover-up)
FBI Deputy Asst Director for Counterintelligence, Dina Corsi -

Ordered the FBI team "not to write any more memoranda or analytical pieces"

Corsi was speaking for FBI leadership.
The FBI paid Steele primary subsource Igor Danchenko a total of $220K.

The FBI - after it learned Danchenko lied to them, and during the Durham investigation - proposed future payments of $300K.

Payments that would have kept Danchenko under wraps.

​

Neither the Clinton Foundation Investigation, nor the Foreign Illegal Contributions produced any evidence of wrongdoing by the Clintons. Not a single charge was laid in regards to any Clinton investigation.

Why is Durham attempting to Characterize the refusal of the DOJ or the FBI to investigate these matters during the election campaign, as something improper? Both of these investigations were predicated on allegations made by Judicial Watch to the IRS.

So Durham is complaining that the FBI and the DOJ refused to participate in a partisan witch hunt against Hillary Clinton launched by Judicial Watch. See NYT piece below.

What about the fifty former intel. agents who perjured themselves in a letter defending Hunter? Any penalties, impeachments forthcoming or is it just an exercise in CYA?

There is only one former security official, who perjured himself about Hunter, Biden’s laptop, and that’s the guy who now claims that he was pressured into signing the letter.

50 of them agreed with what they were signing, and none of the others have come forward to support this one loyal Trump appointed security officials story.

I believe the 50 guys who didn’t take an oath of loyalty to Donald Trump to get their jobs, over the one that did.

​

"Neither U.S. law enforcement nor the Intelligence Community appears to have possessed any actual evidence of collusion in their holdings at the commencement of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation," Durham wrote in a 300-plus page report sent to Congress and others and obtained by Just the News.​

​

...​

​

The prosecutor faulted the department and the FBI for failing to follow their own standards and allowing a probe to persist, including the surveillance of an American citizen, without basis under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.​

​

"Based on the review of Crossfire Hurricane and related intelligence activities, we concluded the Department and the FBI failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law in connection with certain events and activities described in this report," Durham wrote.​

​

"The FBI personnel also repeatedly disregarded important requirements when they continued to seek renewals of that FISA surveillance while acknowledging – then and in hindsight – that they did not genuinely believe there was probably cause to believe that the target was knowingly engaged in clandestine intelligence activities on behalf of foreign power."​

John Durham releases final report, concludes FBI had no verified intel when it opened probe on Trump

The FBI has long defended its conduct in probe, but Durham said his probe provided a "sobering" look at misconduct.

Another black eye for the FBI

Durham report faults FBI’s Trump-Russia probe

The long-awaited report from Special Counsel John Durham echoes prior conclusions from the Justice Department's inspector general.

www.politico.com

Special Counsel John Durham:
"THE TRUMP-RUSSIA PROBE NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN LAUNCHED."

Come on, say it with me, snowflakes, bots, and trolls: "THE TRUMP-RUSSIA PROBE NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN LAUNCHED."


'"Based on the review of Crossfire Hurricane and related intelligence activities, we conclude that the Department and the FBI failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law in connection with certain events and activitiesl described in this report."

"Senior FBI personnel displayed a serious lack of analytical rigor towards the information that they received, especially information received from politically-affiliated persons and entities."
--Special Counsel John Durham



"This information in part triggered and sustained Crossfire Hurricane and contributed to the subsequent need for Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation. In particular, there was significant reliance on investigative leads provided or funded (directly or indirectly) by Trump's political opponents."

Durham is specifically talking about HILLARY CLINTON ('Trump's political opponent in 2016) & the 'investigative leads' he is talking about of course is the fake Russian Dossier Hillary had her lawyer take to the FBI (according to the FBI).

AGAIN, DURHAM SAID THE 'RUSSIAN COLLUSION' INVESTIGATION, WITH SPECIAL COUNSEL (FORMER FBI DIRECTOR) MUELLER AS SPECIAL COUNSEL, SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN INITIATED.

IT WAS A SCAM / SCANDAL FROM THE START.

No shit - YEARS AGO FBI agent Paige testified that the FBI conducted an internal investigation on the 'Russian Collusion' bullshit BEFORE MUELLER TOOK OVER AS SPECIAL COUNSEL AND BEGAN THE INVESTIGATION.

Paige testified THE FBI DISCOVERED - KNEW - THE 'RUSSIAN COLLUSION' STORY WAS FAKE ... BEFORE MUELLER TOOL OVER

That means Comey, McCabe, and the FBI WILLINGLY, KNOWINGLY PARTICIPATED IN A FAILED COUP, KNOWING THE ENTIRE 'RUSSIAN COLLUSION' STORY WAS A HOAX!

Yes, Durham used more finesse in the way he said it, but what he said in his report is clear enough for Democrats, snowflakes, bots, and trolls to understand.

DURHAM JUST PROVED THE BIGGEST CRIMINAL POLITICAL SCANDAL IN US HISTORY, INITIATED BY HILLARY CLINTON AND FACILITATED BY FORMER FBI DIRECTOR COMEY AND DEPUTY DIRECTOR McCABE!

The FBI was WAAAAY off the reservation on this one - flat-out TREASON against the President of the United States...and they weren't alone!


Trump is pissed ... and he should be - EVERY American should be!

Trump says there 'must be a heavy price to pay' for Comey, Democrats after release of Durham report

Former President Trump said Monday that Democrats need to be held accountable for spending years investigating alleged collusion between Trump and Russia after Durham's report.
