Durham has no intention of moving this investigation forward before the election because he knows that it will be shut down if Biden wins and...not be pursued...

You may be right, of course, but that is not much at all by way of quid pro quo. IMO, by sitting on evidence of actionable criminal behavior, he will be in essence defrauding the voters. Justice delayed...etc.

He doesn't have to name Biden, he could fulfil his oath by naming everyone else and if Biden was implicated fence-sitters are free to speculate. Durham/Barr are not going to win any fans if shortly after an extremely close Trump win they come out with multiple indictments.

In fact, there will be a lot of displeased folks if Biden/Harris win and their handlers shut down or severely curtail Durham/Barr's efforts - a lot.

The correct verbiage should be. “You are not a target of a criminal probe...at this time”.

Hey Adolph, I just want you to be aware that we will be landing about 150,000 soldiers between June 3-5 in Normandy, between Verreville and Cabourg

Well, then we live in a Banana Republic.

Presumably, if you're still here in the US of A, you're either okay with this or you're making plans to leave shortly for one of the advanced countries.

Well, Mueller told Trump the same thing, but that was clearly a lie. Unfortunately Durham was probably telling the truth.

Obummer, Brennan, J Edgar Comey etc etc etc will, never get charged, see the inside of a courtroom or a prison cell. Some insignificant underlings will get slapped, but that’s it.

"Is Durham required to tell Ayatollah Brennan if he is a target?"

If you lie to the Feds, you are in deep trouble.

If the Feds lie their ass off to you, no problem.

Until indictments come down, my operating procedure is to
consider no Leftist/democRat supporter to be a target.

Whole lost of smoke. Glowing embers. Raging forest fire.

But after review, nothing was even hot.

Oh but sure, indictments are coming down any minute now.

I’ve been assured for what now, the last three decades?

Bulldoze it clean withing hours folks. No one will
dare to ask.

Yep, none of the ringleaders will ever get charged with anything. Anyone who thinks there’s equal justice under the law is delusional.

The blindfold was torn from Lady Justice long ago.

There seems to be a general belief here that when the FBI tells Brennan he is not a target that he can brag that he lilled Seth Rich, smothered Justice Scalia, zapped Vince Foster....and walk away with a smile.

Why is it that I don't think so?

You can bet that his questioners are pouring over his interview in an effort to find something for which he can be charged.

I would also suggest that it may be that he is not a target in regard to the specific topic that required Friday's meeting and that it is very likely that there are other investigations involving Brennan taking place in parallel to this one.

Remember Brennan has several companies involved with the government and I suspect they are being examines carefully. He was involved in many things that merit a looksee by the feds.

I would think that an EIGHT hour interview with Durham afforded Brennan enough time to discuss A LOT more than the future of his companies.

I wonder if that’s true. He should be.
