U.S. Justice Dept Eyes Spring to Release Findings on FBI Handling of Clinton Email Probe
US News & World Report ^ | November 15, 2017 | By Sarah N. Lynch

WASHINGTON - The internal watchdog at the U.S. Justice Department said on Wednesday he hopes to complete his review by early spring into whether the Federal Bureau of Investigation erred when it announced it was reopening its investigation into Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton's emails ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

"We have interviewed dozens of people. We are not at the 100 level yet, but we're in the dozens range. We've reviewed about 1.2 million records in the course of the investigation," Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz said, in testimony before a U.S. House of Representatives panel.

"We are aiming to release the report in late winter/early spring, so hopefully in that March-April time period."

After a deluge of congressional requests, Horowitz's office earlier this year announced it would review the pre-election decision-making at the FBI.

There are an awful lot of useless bureaucrats in DC but I can’t think of any more useless than IG’s. They are just like the TV commercial - “Oh! We don’t fix anything. We just monitor.” Termite inspectors, bank security, dentists etc. Add to that IG’s!!!! There is at least one for every stinkin’ agency in DC in addition to their staff and pretty soon you’re talking about real money! Nothing but WASTED MONEY! What has any agency IG ever accomplished for the taxpayer?

“”There are 73 federal offices of inspectors general, a significant increase since the statutory creation of the initial 12 offices by the Inspector General Act of 1978.””

Reference: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/office_of_the_inspector_general

What do they do? They WRITE REPORTS. WOW - great job!

“”Within the federal agencies are politically independent individuals called Inspectors General who are responsible for ensuring that the agencies operate efficiently, effectively and legally. When it was reported in Oct. 2006 that Department of Interior employees wasted $2,027,887.68 worth of taxpayer time annually surfing sexually explicit, gambling, and auction websites while at work, it was the Interior Department’s own Office of Inspector General that conducted the investigation and issued the report.””

March/April time frame what year, 2020? Maybe a March/April time frame in the year all the statutes of limitations have run out. Yeah, that’s the ticket!

...but I can't think of any more useless than IG’s.

specially when Gerald Walpin did his job, made a recommendation that Obama disapproved, was pressured to to back off, then pressured to resign and wouldn't then Obama adiosed him.

I am so glad someone other than myself remembers this. That was a friend of obozo’s that Walpin went up against and that just wouldn’t do. I didn’t mention him in my post as I have done so numerous times in the past when I’ve given my opinion of IG’s here to “yawn, who cares?” Just never had any responses from FR. I must have forgotten that he died last year... All death is sad (most of the time but we can exclude some LOL), it’s extra sad when a life is snuffed out due to the negligence of others.
