At the moment, I'm not sure what to make of this. DC Jury? DOJ can't produce a convincing case? A Kabuki event designed to further confuse any meaningful investigation into conduct by the FBI?

Pure politics by the jury.

“Pure politics by the jury.”
That’s what I think. Jury nullification.

If you followed the trial, the point of Durham trying Danchenko wasn't to get a conviction, but to get all of the FBI malfeasance on the record.
Things like the FBI offering $1 million to Steele if he could prove the dossier was genuine, or that Danchenko was on the FBI payroll as a confidential informant, or that Danchenko's FBI handlers never vetted any of the information in the dossier with Danchenko, but still used the dossier as justification for a FISA warrant against Carter Page by extension Donald Trump, plus THREE renewal extensions of the FISA warrant.

If the FIB is free to lie to you, why is it illegal to lie to them?

This country is in deep Kimchi. The national government crime syndicate is running this banana republic chicken coup. These courts need to at least require a double digit I.Q. to be on the jury. No picking your nose or scratching your ass allowed.

Jury members are not going to make the FBI or DOJ look bad. There are consequences.

All Central parties avoided in Prosecution
Years go by, run out the clock prosecution designed to lose interest and allow witnesses to have fuzzy memories
Durham is what his record says he is - a Deep State Democrat

Unfortunately, the left controls all the courts inside the beltway. Same for NY.

Win some, lose some. Durham didn’t amount to much.

Bwahahahahahahahahaha.

The jury may have concluded that the FBI was as involved in pushing the Steele Dossier as Danchenko was.
It would be hard to convict Danchenko of lying to the FBI if the FBI was party to the same conspiracy he was involved with.
Without hearing the jurors interviewed it’s all a guess as to what their reasoning was.

Durham isn’t going to get any convictions out of East Coast democrat partisans.
It won’t happen...... but put Roger Stone or Steve Bannon in front of those same juries:
“Guilty” we didn’t need to see the evidence.
Our law system is a joke.

Every agent involved in Crossfire Hurricane is guilty of conspiracy to commit treason, which is a capital crime. There should be consequences for manufacturing and presenting false evidence. Trump was nearly removed from office twice on thinner charges.

A few years ago I talked to a good doctor who was being sued by an ambulance chaser. He was being sued in the District of Columbia even though he practiced medicine in Virginia. He had no ties at all to the District of Columbia except that one of his suppliers was based there. The plaintiff got the case moved to DC because of that.
The Doctor told me that lawyers will use any trick to get a case moved to DC because they know the jurors are little better than illiterate children who have an ax to grind against "the man".
The "Color" of Justice.
