The Justice Department’s inspector general on Monday released the long-awaited internal review concerning the origins of the Russia investigation.
The report concluded that investigators found no intentional misconduct or political bias surrounding efforts to seek a highly controversial Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page in the early months of the Russia investigation -- but also faulted the FBI over numerous "omissions" and "inaccuracies" in the application process.
The IG probe identified at least 17 "significant" errors in the Page applications and said they would launch a new audit into the FISA process.
At the same time, the report said key officials including former FBI bosses James Comey and Andrew McCabe did not act with political bias and extended a similar finding to the overall surveillance efforts targeting Page.
“We did not find documentary or testimonial evidence that political bias or improper motivation influenced the FBI’s decision to seek FISA authority on Carter Page,” the report said.
IG Michael Horowitz and his investigators probed how the unverified anti-Trump dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele was used to secure the original FISA warrant for Page in October 2016, as well as other decisions at the outset of the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation of Russian election interference and the Trump campaign.

Unbelievable.
forget this, Nadler has crisis , LOL
The stench from the swamp can be smelled from sea to shining sea.
Bull$hit...
It's the ONLY thing that explains their actions.
This is another HilLIARy 'no intent' cover-up.
These a$$hole are looking to start civil war.
Next time you go to the bank try making an 'unintentional withdrawal' and see if that flies in court.
A complete whitewash. Then again, didn’t hold out much hope for change.
Michael Horowitz, disgusting, corrupt, filthy, stinking bastard.
*spits*
The Deep State finds no wrongdoing by the Deep State. What a shock.
They really do think we are stupid, don’t they?
Totally believable, unfortunately.
IG: “Director Comey, did you hold any political biases against President Trump at any time?”
Comey: “No”
IG: “OK, that’s good enough for us”.
This IG has been in place since 2012.
All IGs are scams. They exist to protect the agency, period.
TICK TOCK SEAN HANNITY!!!
TOCK
TOCK
Damn fool. Anyone with half a brain knew that the swamp investigating the swamp would come up with nadda.
Sure, they bought the gun, discussed using it to shoot the victim, pulled the trigger and killed the victim, BUUUUUUUUUUT:
There is no evidence that they hated the victim, the gun could would have gone off eventually anyway, oh and the victim was destined to die.
The whole “bias” angle is a don’t-care red herring. Was anything done illegally for which charges can be brought? That is all that matters; let’s not go down the “intent” rabbit hole again.
Its narrowing down to one way to put a stop to this, imho. Because if it is allowed to continue, we are in for some very dark times.
The question is, who is going to "bell the cat"?
‘
Sessions - Jeff Sessions - decided against a Special Prosecutor that Republicans wanted, and he instead said Scamster Michael Horowitz would get to the bottom of things.
It’s on Video. Don’t try to deny the Truth.
.
How do you possibly justify the targets of an IG investigation having input into the report DOJ?
Didn’t Barr already say this report was full of Horowitz ?
