How long will the investigation into the 2016 cyber intrusion into the Democratic National Committee servers remain open and ongoing? Perhaps forever. Because that’s how long the Department of Justice needs to thwart Congressional oversight of the embarrassing details of the dubious origins of the investigation. See the way DOJ cited the “ongoing” nature of the investigation to block Congressional Oversight here, here, here, and here to name just a few examples.
When Congress has successfully pried information from DOJ, it has discovered DOJ sometimes redacted or withheld information to shield DOJ from embarrassment — not to protect the integrity of any investigation. For example: here, here, and here. So long as the Russia investigation remains “ongoing and open,” DOJ remains shielded from publicly answering questions such as, “What was Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s role in the Comey firing?” or “Did Rosenstein improperly authorize defective requests for surveillance of Trump associate Carter Page?”

Not only has the FBI failed to examine the scene of the crime, it likely never will in any meaningful way. As illustrated below, the cyber security firm the DNC and Clinton used to investigate the 2016 data breach may have hopelessly tainted the evidence before law enforcement could verify its claims of Russian hacking. And this cyber security firm trampled over this evidence without following its own recommendations for assessing the identity of a cyber intruder.
From June 10–12, CrowdStrike stealthily replaced the DNC’s software, moving carefully to avoid detection.” Thus, even if the FBI examined the same server today, it’s difficult to imagine that CrowdStrike left intact any admissible evidence of the intrusion.
Perkins Cole then worked to try to find a Russian hack of the DNC server. This dovetailed nicely with the other project Perkins Coie had already started: in April of 2016, it hired Fusion GPS to prove a Trump-Russia connection. Indeed, “At first the DNC tried to get the FBI to make the attribution call [blaming the Russians], figuring that it would garner more attention coming from the US government.”
After CrowdStrike’s purge of the hostile code from the DNC server, the evidence is gone forever.
The FBI never did any forensic examination of the computer.

Fire the top 30% of the FIB. See how long the puzzle remains unsolved?
I mean -- John Podesta falls for a phishing scam that most people associate with victims in their 80s and older?

Kinda like the tax code. On purpose.
OK, that’s fine. Defund the DOJ.
It’s not impossible to solve.. the government ... those in charge of every department before Trump... are liars.. everything they say is geared to go against Trump and put them in a light where they can continue to do the impossible.. remove Trump. It’s become THE thing to accomplish.. remove Trump. They’ve managed, via the media, to convince the really dumb and not inclined to know even who the vice President is at any given time.. the ones easily fooled and easily led... they’ve managed to convince them Trump is guilty.. of what, they have no idea.. they just put an adjective or a noun they know works.. and go off half cocked in their ignorance.
They (the swamp and more) have set this up to get Trump out and they are hell bent on it... that’s the puzzle.. made up treason against our country!
The fact it’s gone on and on... is the madening part.. for we know it’s false/a lie/political/and too many are believing it.. God help this nation to survive again!
Well, they may be retarded...but they most certainly hold the world record for ruthlessness.
Forever, indeed. When you don't want to find out the Truth, you make sure to avoid investigating anything substantive.
It’s just a mess, spygate completly dead (thanks Gowdy) the country probably believes the Russians had a big impact on the election a never ending cloud over Trump the Mueller circus is never going away and Rosenweasel is still the AG.
So it appears to me.
This is all a huge Ruse to keep Hillary out of Jail.
Kind of Funny ... I solved it.

You mean, perpetrated ?
Corrupt from top to bottom. Jeff Sessions is beyond useless. He is doing NOTHING to make DOJ comply with Congress. He is completely in denial that anything is wrong ar DOJ because he intentionally keeps himself out of the loop. The AG knows less about the Russia investigation than anybody else in the Executive branch of government, and it is intentional
Giuliani really screwes Trump when he refused to be his AG.
Sessions is a joke. A very bad, damaging joke.
SESSIONS MIA is a sort of myth.
His prosecutors have made indictments (a lot).
Option A. Start prosecuting before midterms. “Its all political theatre!!!” scream the lamestream far left media.
Option B: Start prosecuting before midterms. The Trump federal judges are not yet in place. Far left and center left judges delay and torpedo and weaken the trials #Resist as much as they are able. Faith in the federal legal system, feeling some comparitively small tremors right now, would experience near extinction level quakes and take a generation to recover. Street level anarchy and social instability ups banking risks and financing of the economic engines - ask a dozen nations south of the border.
Option C: wait til after the midterms.
How Clintonian. I still believe that honest FBI agents are, and have been, stepping up. I still believe that the bad actors will be hoisted on their own petard. I also believe this will happen a lot closer to November than we are now.
