Per FBN, Ohr didn’t show up. Period.

[Jewbacca]

“Lame...seriously lame attempt at cover.”

Concur. It meant: (1) they were going to go soft on Hillary (by changing “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless” and (2) were going to concoct some process crimes to get Trump.

There is no other reasonable explanation.

" It's possible that Strzok is seeking to strike a deal and is cooperating."

All it will take is for ONE of them to flip and the entire house of cards tumbles.

[livius]

That was what I thought too. Setting out the marching orders.

Even so, however, it’s hardly innocent and I don’t see this as much of an improvement their story.

[Empireoftheatom48]

When is this IG investigation going to come to a close. It should have been yesterday. We need to move on these A$$ holes.

Insurance is CERTAIN. The results of an investigation are iffy at best. Iffy at best DOESN’T equal insurance.

I think you're taking a metaphor far too literally.

[pgkdan]

Maybe. It could also indicate something much more nefarious.

[Neanderthal]

"These lying thugs have had plenty of time to get their stories straight. The best thing is the Inspector General’s investigation. His reputation is that he is fair and honest."

This Inspector general was hired by Obama. Why would Obama hire someone who is fair and honest? This makes absolutely no sense.

[Neanderthal]

"The argument won’t wash. Insurance is CERTAIN. The results of an investigation are iffy at best. Iffy at best DOESN’T equal insurance."

Bingo.

[laconic]

Ohr didn’t show up to testify to a previously agreed time and place before Congress? I don’t know if that is legal contempt but it certainly is contemptuous of Congress by a federal employee who needs to be fired, pronto. Listening, Mr. Sessions??

[chuckee]

Trial balloon time. McCabe was supposed to testify before the committee last week but then Strzok texts came out so he
postponed his appearance to synchronize his story with Strzok and Page. Look for these three to sing from the same songbook
they cooked up for the congressional committee. Truth can be a moving target when it comes to Washington DC swamp creatures caught red handed and forced to testify in front of congressional committees.

[moehoward]

Unless the outcome of that “investigation” is predetermined.

[Golden Eagle]

I’m reading some reports that it is likely that Strzok was actually one of the authors of the infamous consolidated intelligence report, that fingered Russia as the ones that hacked the DNC. One of the reasons is Clapper’s testimony that it was quote “hand picked” agents from the NSA, CIA, and FBI who wrote the report, but left them unnamed. If it’s shown Strzok was involved, then that document could be even further questioned/discredited more than it already has been.

[SSS Two]

Football Coach: Navy can't pass the ball. They can't drive 80 yards in two minutes to win the game. But I'm not taking any chances. I'm going to run nickel and dime defenses as an insurance policy to make sure they can't complete a deep ball.

Neanderthal: Insurance policy? Insurance policy? Insurance is CERTAIN. Are you saying there's no way Navy can score against a nickel defense?

[MileHi]

Nice try.

[Parley Baer]

“Per FBN, Ohr didn’t show up. Period.”

Looks like Ohr does not want any oversight on what he was doing. He does not want to answer any questions.

[ptsal]

Did pencil-neck take any CNN-pee breaks?

[Howie66]

“I don’t recall”, “I don’t remember”, “I can’t discuss that in this setting”, “My dog ate my homework” or “Look! A squirrel!”.....

[Williams]

Total admission.

[Williams]

So they are totally guilty but they’re saying their misbehavior was justified.
