how bizarre the comments are, when Herridge is one of the few reporting on the topic.
try to find NYT, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, ABC, WaPo coverage etc. the same few articles from 2 days ago are virtually all that exists. but, of course, the Equinox fundraiser story has a new angle every hour and mass FakeNewsMSM coverage fo each development.
a rare new Bruce Ohr piece:
10 Aug: Daily Mail: Lindsey Graham in new attack on FBI accusing them of ‘deep corruption’ for keeping using golden showers dossier in court applications for eavesdropping warrants AFTER firing its author
•Partially redacted documents reveal how FBI ignored red flags about the dossier
•They applied for warrants targeting Donald Trump based on the ‘dodgy dossier’
•However, they had already accepted that author Christopher Steele was biased
•Justice Dept’s Bruce Ohr kept in contact with Steele after he was fired by the FBI
By Danyal Hussain For Mailonline and Geoff Earle, Deputy U.S. Political Editor For Dailymail.com
‘Here’s what we’re looking at: Systematic corruption at the highest level of the Department of Justice and the FBI against and in favor of Hillary Clinton,’ Graham told host Sean Hannity on Fox News Thursday night. Graham is a close ally of president Trump’s...
The FBI continued to use the ‘dodgy dossier’ compiled by Steele to renew court warrants targeting Donald Trump, despite accepting the Brit’s apparent bias against the president.
The partially redacted documents, first obtained by Judicial Watch, revealed that the FBI appeared to ignore the red flags against Steele to apply for multiple Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court warrants.
They also show that leading Justice Department official Bruce Ohr kept in contact with Steele for at least six months after the British ex-spy was fired by the FBI for unauthorized media contacts in November 2016.
Ohr knew of Steele’s anti-Trump bias before the 2016 election, according to the newly-revealed records...
But it appears that Steele’s bias was never shared with the FISA court...ETC

With the corrupt government, it is ALWAYS “we will fix this with more laws.”
Nobody believes that anymore, and the voters are fighting over which corrupt bunch is going to be in charge.
The news stories serve to drive factions of the public into one or the other herd. The institutions will act in ways that they believe will increase their power and prestige among the crooks.
one does not risk life in prison for bias, this is the new smoke screen from the right deep state.. I expect if the DOJ looks there is a massive amount of taxpayer funds funneled into pockets of those willing to play..more than bias, that lowers the bar from Treason already, I smell a pile of nada..
they are already lowering the legal bar by saying it was bias..not treason..Nothing will happen, poor biased coup plotters awww...yep we are done
