Live coverage: FBI chief, Justice IG testify on critical report (2 pm EST)
The Hill ^ | 06/18/18 | The Hill staff

Posted on 06/18/2018 9:49:54 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

Stay here for live coverage of Horowitz's and Wray's appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee, which begins at 2 p.m.

Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz and FBI Director Chris Wray are testifying Monday on a critical IG report that faulted the FBI for its actions during the 2016 presidential race.

The report released last week found former FBI Director James Comey deviated from department norms with his decision-making, and criticized a senior counterintelligence agent for texts that revealed a bias against President Trump.

The report found no evidence that political bias affected the FBI's decisions in its investigation of Hillary Clinton's use of a private server as secretary of State, but was deeply critical of FBI and Justice's leadership.

“...found no evidence that political bias affected the FBI’s decisions in its investigation of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server as secretary of State...”

And the earth is flat......

“...found no evidence that political bias affected the FBI’s decisions in its investigation of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server as secretary of State...”

That’s idiotic on the face of it.

I hope one of our beloved Senators points this out and demands an explanation.

Yes...this will be interesting. I am sure the MSM won’t cover it!

Let me summarize in advance: "The report is fill of seemingly salacious things which on the surface appear to cast a light of some potential process violations. However this is simply not so. Indeed, to question the integrity of the FBI, the DOJ, and it's dedicated personnel is unfair, unwarranted, and unpatriotic. These things are all just taken out of context and we gave people a pep talk and advice to keep their biases ... I mean easily misunderstood statements ... to themselves in the future. So it's all over. Gotta go, thanks."

"Oh yeah, and those documents you've been asking for? Yeah, I'm going to need you to go ahead and give me another extension, mmm'kay?"

Oh boy, I can’t wait for Kamala Harris’ insightful questions or Corey Booker, foaming at the mouth. I’m sure that Jeff Flake will complain that the FBI didn’t have Trump shot. Maybe Grassley and Cruz can get one or two pertinent questions asked.

The questions and the questioners will be as telling as the answers.

I wonder if they will have read the entire report by the time of the hearing.

Are there any strong, conservative Senators on this committee?

My understanding is that this is a pretty milquetoast committee, so I don’t expect any fireworks.

(Did I mix metaphors there?)
