This is like a bomb going off in DC. A big one.

I agree with you. The implications of this public statement could be enormous.

It's surreal to have a U.S. Attorney publicly contradict an internal investigation like this.

This may mean that the U.S. Attorney is pursuing a criminal investigation based on information that the IG didn't have. It might mean the IG is a target of the investigation, too.

“It’s surreal to have a U.S. Attorney publicly contradict an internal investigation like this.“

It is also (to my knowledge) entirely unprecedented as well.

No one is above the law, starting with corrupt lying IG's.

Agree about Horowitz. He’s civil service so you need to catch him in wrongdoing to nail him. Give him the rope...

Yes, "could" is the correct word to use here.

It's TBD.

If an FBI counterintelligence investigation of a POTUS candidate, and then elected POTUS, is not properly predicated...officially...that is a very, very big deal indeed.

Far worse if probable cause and reasonable belief was manufactured by domestic officials.

It formally antes up with the sedition chip.

Today is the day that all past Obama cabinet members realized they were at risk, personally.

Yup. That's my reading. If justice is done, Horowitz will end up in prison too.
