DOJ Spokeswoman Kerri Kupec was on Fox News with Bill Hemmer this afternoon. During the course of her interview, she told Hemmer that her bosses expect a “report” from U.S Attorney John Durham and his investigation of ObamaGate by the “end of summer.” Or…maybe not.
Here’s a clip, followed by a transcript:
Transcript:
Hemmer: John Durham – when will there be news on that?
Kupec: Well, we hope to see a report by the end of summer. Obviously, this is a criminal investigation – the goal is not a report, it’s a criminal investigation. But certainly, there is a story to be told there. The American people deserve resolution, and frankly, justice deserves resolution. Justice needs to be restored, and I think that report is going to be really pivotal to that one-tiered system of justice. [crosstalk]
Hemmer: You say by the end of the summer? Is that a guarantee?
Kupec: There are no guarantees in life, but we certainly hope to see one by the end of the summer.
Hemmer: Can you guarantee pre-election, Kerri?
Kupec: Bill, I will just tell you this: We are hopeful, and we expect to see a report by the end of summer.
Hemmer: Thanks for coming on today.
[End]
I like Kerri Kupec. She is really good at her job and a credit to the institution of the DOJ. That having been said, this interview does not inspire confidence in any way, shape or form. Do we “hope” to see a report by the end of summer, or do we “expect” to see said report? Or are we hopeful and expect to see such a report, but we aren’t sure when it will or will not come?
And what the hell is a report supposed to do for us in any event? As Kupec said herself, Durham is running a criminal investigation here – the only reports we need to see are those on national television reporting on indictments with very visible and public perp walks taking place in the background as the talking head drones on.
Reports are what Michael Horowitz does. They are what congressional committees do. U.S. freaking attorneys prosecute cases. They convene grand juries and seek indictments, and if they want that damn grand jury to indict a damn ham sandwich they had better damn well be able to get that damn indictment.
I do not want to see any tedious report from John Durham. I want to see indictments and perp walks and witnesses testifying and James Comey and John Durham crying and Peter Strzok and Lisa Page being shipped off to separate federal prisons.
Please, Ms. Kupec, go back to the DOJ, get your talking points straight, and stick to the story. At least give us that. We are not stupid children and deserve better than this.
That is all.
The odor is beginning to permeate the atmosphere.
By the same people who have been enablers of the breakdown, the loss of faith, and the corruption? Yeah right.
Roger Stone said the assistant U. S. attorney who prosecuted him was also the person who recommended not prosecuting McCabe.
The corruption is right in front of our faces. The only question is if we will do anything about it.
“Durham hired a bunch of Democrat prosecutors.”
Probably the same ones on Mueller’s team.
Bloody hell, we need indictments. Just two indictments would be so helpful.
A report? No, we don’t need a report. We need some indictments.
I’m getting a strong wiff of Hillary’s emails non prosecution out of DOJ now. Durham’s prosecutors are no doubt working with their Democrat buddies at lawfare on a CYA memo instead of aggressively pursuing the coupists.
Real prosecutor’s don’t issue “reports”.
Just like the IG reports, nothing will change, & the Rats know they can do the same if any other Republican Presidents are elected ( which seems increasingly doubtful).
I am suspecting the John Durham report’s release is being kept secret so that it makes the enemy become complacent and think the election of Joe Biden will end it all. They will all be scrambling like rats when their predictions of timing was all wrong.
The GOP are giving the Dems a mulligan on Spygate because Trump and his supporters were the target. It’s important we do not support the GOP the next time the Dems railroad a Scooter Libby GOPe type.
I think the Just Us Department is hoping they can stall past the election—and hoping for a Biden victory so they don’t have to actually indict anybody...
Nothing would please me more than to be proven wrong.
Report? Baloney. Indictments!
Just release all the damn information to the American people, nobody is going to be prosecuted.
So, we get hosed again?
Huber is going to get to the bottom of this!
Don’t you think that for at least several of these criminals they have enough for an indictment already?
Of course they do.
But that’s not the purpose of this “investigation”.
The purpose is to protect fellow Deep Staters from the law.
Don’t get your hopes up.
At best, there will be a report that says “Mistakes were made, but nobody made them.”
How to contradict yourself in one sentence:
“Kupec: Well, we hope to see a report by the end of summer. Obviously, this is a criminal investigation – the goal is not a report, it’s a criminal investigation.”
I’m pretty confident Durham is targeting something by February 2025, unless a strong republican is elected following our President’s second term.
They just keep dangling that carrot for those who want to believe that good ultimately triumphs over evil. Indictments are needed now, starting with the lower rung and working their way up.
