John Durham Criminal Probe Gathers Steam Investigating Post Election Docs

Department of Justice appointed federal prosecutor John Durham’s expanded criminal probe into the FBI’s investigation into President Donald Trump’s campaign is focusing on a slew of government documents that surfaced during the first several months of Trump’s presidency. The documents, which are being kept close hold, were hinted at by Attorney General William Barr in an interview he did with NBC in December and reported on by CBS News Friday.

On Friday, Catherine Herridge senior national security reporter with CBS first reported that a ‘strong paper trail’ of documents is being reviewed by Durham. Those documents span a time period from January, 2017 until May 2017, just before the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

However, Barr has already suggested at the expansive nature of Durham’s probe in December and hinted at the discoveries. And in October, 2019 reports revealed that Durham had expanded the scope of his investigation and would investigate not only the origin of the bureau probe into Trump’s campaign but also the post-election timeline.

Barr said in an interview with NBC in December, that Durham “should spend just as much attention on the post-election period” noting that the probe will not just focus on the origins of the investigation.

Barr said he asked Durham to look at the post Trump election because “of some of the stuff that Horowitz has uncovered which to me is inexplicable.”

THIS IS RICH---Horowitz says he found (cough) NO evidence the FBI wiretapped anyone except Trump campaign adviser Carter Page .......... WRT the Russia investigation.

I would like to see the actual language stating this. Perhaps there is a new definition of “wire-tapping” when it relates to a FISA warrant. Nothing would have come from surveiling only Carter Page. It’s the second layer of the “two hop” surveillance allowed by a FISA warrant that the feds were after.

Republican politicians and pundits are so stupid that they continually talked about ... spying on Carter Page ... without mentioning the hundreds or thousands of people in Trumps circle who were able to be spied on “legally”.

It’s all being slow walked in hopes that Trump won’t be reelected. Then it all dies. Its almost too late as it is.

The Deep State and the self-adoring Romneys, Bushes, Obamas, Clintons and the current Dems are not omnipotent.

Their illusion of eternal power can be wiped out.

No leader can stay in power without the consent of the governed. Still true today.

The Deep State can be destroyed. Julius Caesar, Nicholas & Alexandra, the 1930s "god" leaders of Japan,Hitler and others could tell you --if Hell had an internet connection to our world.

Another reason the Donald will go down as one of the most important presidents in history.

He dragged the SOBs out into the open.

They hate him more than they hated R Reagan.

I can handle the Donalds rashness. Its in him. He likes to fight. And that is exactly what is needed at this moment in this nations history.

May the Almighty grace him with the holy spirit in the coming days/weeks/months.

When your boss asks you for results and you have none do you call him or her a whiner?

I don’t have a boss, Hoss.

Barr and Durham’s boss is happy with them.

Anymore stupid questions?

Throw in “Trust Wray” and “Trust Rosenstein” for good measure. As much great reporting as Sara has done, she’s put out too much hype and promised too many dates that never happened. I’ll pay attention when the indictments come out.

Is the timing of the impeachment designed to preempt the findings of Durham’s investigation?
Is time of the essence for Durham and Barr - meaning, if the Democrats regain the Presidency, will Durham be fired and the results of the investigation be buried?
