Is Durham going to let the FBI and DOJ off the hook?
American Thinker ^ | 18 May, 2022 | Thomas Lifson

Sundance is raising the alarm that John Durham is not going to prosecute FBI and DOJ officials for their role in perpetrating the Russia Hoax. Opening arguments were presented Tueaday in the trial of Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussman for lying to then-FBI general counsel James Baker, claiming that he wasn’t working for the campaign when he brought charges of ties between Donald Trump and Russia to the FBI.

Sundance writes:

As noted by Charlie Savage, prosecutor Deborah Shaw, a member of the Durham team, delivered the opening remarks to frame the government position in the case.

The telling remarks came early: “Shaw addresses “the elephant in the room” – tells jury their feelings about Russia, Trump, Clinton can’t play a role in the case. This is about “our FBI” which should not be used as a tool by anyone, Republicans or Democrats.” In essence, prosecutor Shaw is telling the jury the FBI were duped into the Trump-Russia conspiracy investigation by outsiders connected to the Clinton campaign.

That’s a critical baseline from the government we must understand and accept. That baseline now indicates that none of the DOJ and FBI operatives involved in the fraudulent scheme will be held accountable by the Durham team. “Our FBI should not be used as a tool by anyone,” yet they were, so sayeth the United States Government.

There you have it folks. For those who tried to avoid the uncomfortable reality of the situation. The Durham prosecution has set down the cornerstone establishing the DOJ/FBI was used and tricked.

It would be what everyone suspected would happen, The FBI, DOJ as well as Biden and 0bama knew all along and will get away with it.

I hope this is not true.

Nothing will be done about any of this. And Ruby freeman won a case against OAN because they said it was illegal. They have now said what they did was ok because it had a closed lid. They admitted to wrong doing.

Anyone who thinks that anything’s gonna come from this is delusional.

Fact: any trials that might occur will be before a DC jury.DC went something like 92% for The Big Guy,and the Rats didn’t even have to cheat in DC.

Fact: Durham knows that Rat Party Headquarters...and their military wing (Antifa)...knows where he lives.

This is why the Founders did not want power centralized in DC. It gave the Federal Government limited powers which have expanded way beyond the boundaries set for it. The decay came from the Supreme Court itself which granted itself the power of the final say on the law. For over 200 years this power grab has been accepted because it passes the buck to unaccountable life long lawyers in black robes.

That would be my guess. I haven’t seen anything that would make me think differently. Has anybody?

My position for a long time has been the FIB and DOinJ were not dupes, they were active participants, ... all the way up to Lois Lerner’s boss Obozo. It wasn’t that any of them “knew it”, the “knew it” because they were all part of the criminal enterprise, making it happen.

Poor poor FIB, ... most sophisticated, premier law enforcement agency in the world ... “duped by” a demonikrap campaign. BS.

There is no evidence that Durham will prosecute anyone inside the givernment agencies.

Of course he is. He dragged this whole thing out until the result would be useless.

Hmmmmm.. Don’t give up all hope....yesterday I heard Kash Patel explain Durham’s strategy to get some convictions. He said it would just go up to Stroke and McCabe, not the bag Lady or Comey. I want to see that weasel Stroke do a few years at least.

You knew the fix was in when the Obama judge with quite a few relations with connected parties was appointed, refused to recuse himself, and no objection was lodged by the prosecution. Barr would have never appointed anyone to head this case if they were truly “independent”. The deep state always takes care of their own (and with your money).
