The continuing delays in releasing the Department of Justice Inspector General’s report on the FISA warrant have discouraged a lot of conservatives. But according to Joe DiGenova and Victoria Toensing, whose sources on the ongoing scandal have been excellent, the reasons behind the delay are entirely positive. Yesterday they appeared on Lou Dobbs’s show on Fox Business Network, and laid it out. The video is embedded below, but AT contributor Mark Wauck laid out the substance and transcribed key portions in his blog, Meaning in History:
Dobbs starts it off by asking if we'll ever see the OIG FISA report, and there's a bit of kidding about dueling anonymous sources. The WaPo source says "by Thanksgiving," but another source says that's "not likely." Then they get into the substance. Two major takeaways:
1) The delay on the OIG FISA report is "partially" due to John Durham's new Grand Jury activity--which can only mean that Durham is already taking testimony from persons named in IG Horowitz's report, and
2) Durham is actively investigating the leak of the Flynn/Kislyak phone call to David Ignatius of the WaPo, which diGenova describes as "a 20 year felony." Ouch! Maybe that person--or persons--will want to go for a deal? But they'll have to have something truly major to offer. Something that Durham can't get without their cooperation. And count on it
So, the transcript in relevant part--which means, virtually all of it:
Victoria Toensing: I can tell you this, and we have darn good sources for this, it [the OIG FISA report] is going to be very bad for the people in the Obama administration. My source said to me, "It's going to be worse than you can imagine."

“It will produce more juvenile pissing and moaning from FReepers who dont understand things however.”
I’m impressed by the fact they have moved from, “sorry there’s a delay” to “this delay is great news”.
Creative.
You just wait!!
Devastating!!!
Damaging
Incriminating
Tick tock, tick tick tockety tock tick tock
All talk.
Some more talk
Soon
Or later
Or even later
End of the month next month or next year or after its been redacted to look like a piece of carbon paper.
Durham, is impanelling to charge or not charge but we will know for sure once something or nothing has happened at some point after Schiff has damaged the President with miles and miles of selectively leaked testimony.
But boy will there be trouble. My sources on this one are impeccable.
They say that this report will be real trouble just as soon as being in trouble wont matter anymore.
On another note and a completely unrelated story, all the local DC paint stores, hardware stores, Lowes and Home Depots are reporting a strange shortage of white (wash) paint.
2. The U.S. legal system almost certainly has no jurisdiction over foreign sources that share classified information. The nuances of the charges against Julian Assange in this regard were very interesting.
Yawn. We’ll see. All the “Bombshell Tonight” and “Indictments Imminent” shrieks got old a year ago.
Tic Tock..... DUD?
There are some things you just can't 'not report'.
You are acting like a barracks room lawyer and making this way too complicated. It’s a felony. A huge felony and anyone would lose his job and probably plea bargain on a reduced sentence for doing something like this agreeing in addition to fines and jail time never to apply for or hold a clearance or position of trust ever again.
Missed the show but this article is great.
Is the pumping up of the IG’s report designed to worry and put pressure on those they wish to turn?
“U.S. law would probably not provide any protection for Flynn in this case. And on top of that, I really have to question the intelligence of a “national security expert” who places such a sensitive call on his mobile phone in a Third World sh!t-hole like the Dominican Republic.”
Do your homework!
It is tortuous to watch the ebb and flow of their hope for justice.
Folks, timing is everything.
And now is not the time to release the IG Report.
Keep this in the back pocket. The Ace up your sleeve. Next year as phony impeachment proceedings start to do damage, then drop the bomb.
sorry Joe D is on the right side of things but has anything he predicted ever actually happened?
I..
I advocate being patient and letting Durham and Barr do things the right way, but 'timing' should have nothing to do with it. As long as the IG report is complete, AND its not going to tip off or interfere with any other ongoing investigations, release the report.
U.S. law would probably not provide any protection for Flynn in this case. And on top of that, I really have to question the intelligence of a “national security expert” who places such a sensitive call on his mobile phone in a Third World sh!t-hole like the Dominican Republic.
There you go again insulting General Flynn after insisting yesterday you don’t. I can set my watch to that. He’s a “moron”, “idiot” and now you “question his intelligence.” Did he steal your girlfriend or something? Ha ha.
I can image pretty bad. So much for the Rope-A-Dope, get on with it.
Folks, timing is everything.
And now is not the time to release the IG Report.
Correct. The time to release the administrative IG report was mid 2017. That did not happen because Sessions recused himself and defacto AG Rotten Rod started the cover up. Now we are into election season of 2020 and nothing will be done about Democrat criminality. Sorry.
I see the FLeepers are out in force today.
If some telecommunications specialist in the Dominican military — or even a civilian in a Dominican phone company — intercepts a mobile phone call placed by Michael Flynn from a resort in the country and shares it with the Washington Post, then which American could possibly be facing any criminal charges in the matter?
