Attorney General Bill Barr testified Wednesday that he believes "spying did occur" on the Trump campaign in 2016, as he vowed to review the conduct of the FBI's original Russia probe -- and the focus of a related internal review shifted to the role of a key FBI informant.

Horowitz, more broadly, is probing alleged wrongdoing related to the issuance of FISA warrants to surveil Page during the election. During a hearing on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, Attorney General Bill Barr testified that Horowitz’s investigation is expected to be complete by May or June.

As sitting administration using the fell powers of government to hinder an opposition party candidate.

Worse than anything Nixon ever did, or even thought of doing.

So I saw this coming a long way out, mostly whenever we finally got a new AG, but if I could see it coming, so could the FBI. At the very minimum, it probably means lots of time to cover tracks. But on the more paranoia/conspiracy level, i wondered if it meant a coming power struggle between the two.

For the most part, the (bad?) old leaders/culprits are out, so I’m probably wayyy out in left field with this line of thinking. But still, the natural tribal instinct is a powerful one; protect your own side.
Who else doesn’t see the FBI taking this with a spoon full of sugar?

A million times worse than what Nixon did, isn’t it? And this leads STRAIGHT to Obama.

We’ve all known for over two years that Clinton / Obama were spying on the Trump campaign. Glad to see the government is just starting to figure that out.

Better be a lot more than a “report”. This needs to be serious indictments, prosecutions and massive jail time for many higher ups.

Don’t expect this to go anywhere.

It would all inevitably lead back to Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009 and none of the people in the District of Corruption want their complicity in violating the Constitution exposed.

I read this last night, and I think it is an interesting theory about Sessions.

Gee, someone in DC besides Trump finally admits what EVERYONE (media, law enforcement, congress, Sessions) has known for years.

Now let's see what America does about officials who spy on opposing campaigns and try to eliminate the President of the United States.

Haven’t seen anyone ask what he’s going to do about it. That would be nice information to have.

Fox is worthless. I just listened, and Barr didn't say he believes spying occured, he said spying occured. He went on to say that the pertinent question is whether the spying was predicated or not. He is not going to investigate the spying, because it is a simple fact. He is going to investigate whether the spying was justified.

I read an educated guess somewhere that bothers me.

Did Mueller grant immunity to some of the participants?

How are the manic media going to spin this fact about Obama’s just-us department and Intel community?
