On Wednesday during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) dropped a bomb about FBI interference in the 2016 election while questioning Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz about his report regarding misconduct in the espionage operation against the Trump campaign in 2016.
“Is it worse to have a foreign government trying to meddle in our elections, or is it worse to have our own government meddling in the election?” asked Hawley.
Referring to the report, Hawley continued: “It shows that our government, the most powerful law enforcement agency in the nation, the FBI, effectively meddled in an ongoing presidential campaign.”
Hawley then called out the Democratic National Committee for instigating the whole mess.
“The DNC pays for the Steele dossier, solicits the Steele dossier, and then gets the Federal Bureau of Investigation to go get FISA warrants, surveil an American citizen, and surveil a presidential campaign all on the basis of this manufactured garbage that they paid for.
I mean that’s extraordinary,” he complained. “That has got to be a first time in history. In fact, let me just ask you, Mr. Horowitz, are you aware ever of another presidential campaign being targeted by the FBI like the Trump campaign was?”
...
Hawley then grilled Horowitz about why the criminals at the FBI involved in this are still employed. No one knows. Hawley closed with this bombshell: “I think the collusion here was between the DNC and the FBI.”
Unreal.

Imo, when it comes to Horowitz’s Report and testimony, he did exactly correct.
His task was to investigate process and he’s reporting on what can be proven in court of law, not playing to court of public opinion.
Every word, every eyeblink is going to be gone over in detail by the defense for these scumbags and he didn’t give them anything to use as ammo in the defense.
Motive such as bias comes from other sources that the gov already has in hand, such as social media in the scumbags’ own words by their own hands.
It wasn’t needed in this and would only have caused harm if it had been included.
