The reasons the IG report has been delayed will delight Trump supporters

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."

Same people who kept telling us Sessions was so slick he was building a sure-fire case behind closed doors to take the evil-doers down in one fell swoop...

Will anything ever happen?

They have already pissed away 3 years and the traitors are all walking around laughing at these constant Fake News bulletins about their impending doom.

"And now is not the time to release the IG Report."

I have come to the point that I agree with that 100%. In fact the scenario I would like to see is that none of the reports are "released" until the day after the Senate receives the Impeachment resolution. All in, I am. Democrats put up or shut up. Nothing will do that better than a real trial in the Senate complete with "reports", witnesses, etc.

This crap has been going on now for 3 years.

Let's put a punctuation mark on it. Win or loose!

Of course this would require the GOP to display some cajones, they more than likely don't have.
