Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo says her sources are telling her an extensive report by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz on alleged Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act abuses by the Justice Department and the FBI will be released by the end of next week.
Bartiromo, who is the first journalist to report an exact release date, discussed what she had learned on her Fox News show, Sunday Morning Futures, with two Republican congressmen who deduced former high-ranking government officials are bracing for a scathing critique.
"I’m hearing the IG report will be out this upcoming Friday, Oct. 18, and my sources say it’s as thick as a telephone book," Bartiromo said, adding that it covers "more than just FISA abuse."
It has been exactly one month since Horowitz announced the completion of the investigation by his team, who pored over more than 1 million records and conducted 100-plus interviews. The inspector general gave a draft to the Justice Department and FBI for a classification review.
Upon the completion of that process, the report will first be delivered to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, who has pledged to do a "deep dive" of his own into FISA that will run concurrently with U.S. Attorney John Durham's review of the early stages of the Russia investigation. The South Carolina Republican said his "No. 1 goal" is to have as much of the report declassified as possible.

“Maria is a jewel at Fox.”
She’s been upfront and clear about SpyGate and you see it all the time with her pointed and direct (and concise) questions.
Damn woman has turned into a patriot.
Not true! Rashida Tlaib said that all the Trump admin people who won't cooperate with the sham-wow impeachment investigation will be. ;o)
Your comments suggest you are an idiot. Intelligent people wait for facts and data.
I'm sure strong letters will follow.
Here it co-omes...

Here comes your 19th nervous breakdooowwnn
I sure they are working on the language meant to pacify us Deplorables while hoping to keep us pushing "Republicans" pushed by George Will or Bill Kristol.
A scathing critique. Which is somewhere between a tsk tsk and a harrumph. There might even be a friend face stamped somewhere on the report.
That's when you want to dump bad news.
Sorry for any cynicism
BUT
From the way this has been going so far - with the Geraldo ‘Al Capone Vault’ and Lucy & the football for ref points, I hate to say I think AOC end of world in 12 ?? years is more likely to happen.
‘They’ keep baiting us with next week, in two weeks, a day after the report etc etc etc .
Every day Comey etal are allowed to take shots at the Pres, just solidifies what is sure to be called ‘Trumps Vendetta’ if and when ANY of them are formally charged.
I heard it from the overnight radio guys: Red Eye Radio.
They were skeptical too.
Monumental nothing burger expected.
One problem I see on these threads is that cynicism often veers dangerously close to defeatism.
Wasn’t it Churchill himself who counseled “never, never despair.”
All these abuses started before we had Trump ... and sometimes one man’s leadership is all that’s needed to create a remarkable turnaround.
Trump is our Churchill.
Don’t call me an optimist, only a man who has seen enough of life to know that we can’t predict the future with any certainty.
WHy a Friday?
Why not a Monday?
Some of you doom and gloomers are as bad as the Never Trumpers! So glad our POTUS doesn’t act like some of the sniveling, pearl clutchers that frequent these threads!
Fu*king Eeyores!
Which Friday, which year?
Thank you.
