The long awaited findings of Special Counsel John Durham’s Trump-Russia investigation proves that even when NAKED TRUTH is unearthed, the perps get away with it and merely strut on to their next dastardly mission.
Cynical as it may sound, diddly-squat never happens to the lying perps—even when the TRUTH is finally dragged out.
Perps like cunning Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Andrew McCabe and other outright liars and crooks in what Donald Trump dubs “Russia, Russia, Russia!” skated freely away immediately after their hands were caught in the proverbial cookie jar and are still out there skating freely in the present day.
Justice will never find them—but Thanks John Durham for proving that the masses have been had.
“Special Counsel John Durham found that the Department of Justice and FBI "failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law" when it launched the Trump-Russia investigation. (Fox News, May 15, 2023)
“Fox News Digital obtained Durham’s report Monday afternoon after his years-long investigation into the origins of the FBI’s original investigation, known as "Crossfire Hurricane." That investigation looked into whether the Trump campaign coordinated with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election.”
"Crossfire Hurricane” should be more honestly called, “The Biggest Lie of All Time” in brutal American politics, where anything—including Chris Steele’s salacious debunked dossier—goes.
We are trapped in an era where the lie reigns supreme but nothing ever happens to change it.
“Durham gave his final report to the Justice Department, which released it Monday afternoon. The report spans more than 300 pages.” (Fox News)
In other words, the final report was handed over to the Justice Department, which was part and parcel of the Trump-Russia Democrat completely-cooked-up scandal!
"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 activities described in this report," the report said. (Fox News)

“Durham said his investigation also revealed that "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." (Fox News)
"This information in part triggered and sustained Crossfire Hurricane and contributed to the subsequent need for Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation," the report said. "In particular, there was significant reliance on investigative leads provided or funded (directly or indirectly) by Trump's political opponents."
"The Department did not adequately examine or question these materials and the motivations of those providing them, even when at about the same time the Director of the FBI and others learned of significant and potentially contrary intelligence," the report said."
Durham is referring to past FBI leadership in his report – specifically former FBI Director James Comey and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.
“Reacting to the report, the FBI said in a statement: "The conduct in 2016 and 2017 that Special Counsel Durham examined was the reason that current FBI leadership already implemented dozens of corrective actions, which have now been in place for some time. Had those reforms been in place in 2016, the missteps identified in the report could have been prevented. This report reinforces the importance of ensuring the FBI continues to do its work with the rigor, objectivity, and professionalism the American people deserve and rightly expect.”
Nowadays the FBI pursues with “vigor, objectivity and professionalism”, traditional church-going Catholics and parents fighting school boards.

Still, Durham said there is a "continuing need for the FBI and the Department to recognize that lack of analytical rigor, apparent confirmation bias, and an over-willingness to rely on information from individuals connected to political opponents caused investigators to fail to adequately consider alternative hypotheses and to act without appropriate objectivity or restraint in pursuing allegations of collusion or conspiracy between a U.S. political campaign and a foreign power.” (Fox News)
"Although recognizing that in hindsight much is clearer, much of this also seems to have been clear at the time," Durham's report said. "We therefore believe it is important to examine past conduct to identify shortcomings and improve how the government carries out its most sensitive functions.”
Really? How revealing!
“Special Counsel Robert Mueller completed his investigation into a possible Trump-Russia connection in April 2019, which yielded no evidence of criminal conspiracy or coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia to influence the 2016 election. (Fox News)
“Durham indicted three people as part of his investigation: former Clinton attorney Michael Sussmann in September 2021, Igor Danchenko in November 2021 and Kevin Clinesmith in August 2020.
“Sussmann and Danchenko were found to be not guilty. Clinesmith pleaded guilty and served community service time.”
“Community service time”? Motorists may have spotted him at the corner of 4th and Main picking up garbage.
“The report said Clinesmith "committed a criminal offense by fabricating language in an email that was material to the FBI obtaining a FISA surveillance order.” (Fox News)
"In other instances, FBI personnel working on that same FISA application displayed, at best, a cavalier attitude towards accuracy and completeness," it said.
"FBI personnel also repeatedly disregarded important requirements when they continued to seek renewals of that FISA surveillance while acknowledging – both then and in hindsight – that they did not genuinely believe there was probable cause to believe that the target was knowingly engaged in clandestine intelligence activities on behalf of a foreign power, or knowingly helping another person in such activities," the report continued. "And certain personnel disregarded significant exculpatory information that should have prompted investigative restraint and re-examination.”
“Durham's report "does not recommend any wholesale changes in the guidelines and policies that the Department and the FBI now have in place to ensure proper conduct and accountability in how counterintelligence activities are carried out."
The Trump-Russia false accusations were over as they started. Trump served four years in the Oval Office, but was tailed by “Russia Russia Russia!” lies throughout.
The American electorate were next run down the garden path with what is suspected to be a rigged 2020 election that brought corrupt Joe Biden into power.
And it doesn’t end there.
The dreams of House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY), who suggested Friday that former President Barack Obama knew of the Biden family’s foreign deals with adversaries of the United States, must all be in technicolor.
“Comer said an establishment media journalist should ask Obama if Comer’s hunch is true: “This would be a great question for Obama: Were you aware of what was going on with Joe Biden with respect to foreign policy and some of these ragtag countries around the world?” (Breitbart, May 13, 2023)
What “establishment media” would ask Obama such a pertinent question, and what makes Comer think Obama would answer truthfully if ever asked?
“Speaking with Lou Dobbs on the Great America Show, Comer said Obama must have known about the Biden family business.(Breitbart)
“I believe, Lou, that it’s because he knew what Joe Biden was doing the last year of his vice presidency,” Comer said in reference to payments worth millions the family’s business collected.
"Comer revealed Wednesday that over the course of several years the family business received over $10 million from schemes in Romania and China in return for what appears to be influence peddling.
“He knew his son [Hunter Biden] was no good, and he knew this was nothing but a political liability not just for our country, not just for the democrat party, but for Obama’s legacy,” Comer added. “Because a lot of this happened during the Obama administration.”
“Comer also believes Obama’s knowledge of the family’s business informed his opposition to Joe Biden’s 2020 candidacy.”
Time to WAKE UP, James Comer! Obama’s “opposition to Joe Biden’s 2020 candidacy” morphed into Obama’s 3rd term in office, where he continues to run America from shadowy sidelines.
To quote Wayne Allyn Root, who was in the same graduating class as Obama at Columbia University:
“And I would not be surprised if the next phase of the plan is to replace corrupt, mentally-failing Joe Biden with Michelle Obama in 2024. That would be Obama’s 4th term.
“And the official end of America.”
Meanwhile, Heaven help us from gullible and plain stupid politicians who do so much damage to the greatest country on Earth!
