Once again, we see the conservative pundit class go bananas over the new motion filings from the Durham investigation in the last few days. Suddenly, everybody at Fox News is "expecting more indictments" at any moment! (How did that turn out for Sean Hannity and Dan Bongino the last time?) Suddenly, everybody is supposed to be excited that Durham�s crack team finally figured out spying activities against Donald Trump that occurred in July 2016.
This is a mistake.
The first question you should be asking yourself is why it took the Justice Department almost 6 years to figure out those spying activities.
Let me use the proper analogy here. It's like going back to your old ex-boyfriend who never treated you well because he called you once over the holidays. You know that it's going to end badly before you even call him back � but you're lonely and you can't help yourself. It�s a troubled and abusive relationship - the one between FBI Special Counsel John Durham and American voters who want justice for the Russia Hoax. I don't want to see you get your feelings hurt.
Let me explain why you're probably being played again.
In March of 2019, Nora Dannehy returned to the U.S. Attorney's Office to serve as Durham's top aide. She left a year later in August. What happened? According to press reports at the time, Dannehy had to resign from the Justice Department "at least partly out of concern that the investigative team is being pressed for political reasons to produce a report before its work is done, colleagues said." In case you missed the point, the Hartford Courant added helpfully: "Colleagues said Dannehy is not a supporter of President Trump and has been concerned in recent weeks by what she believed was pressure from Barr, who appointed Durham, to produce results before the election. They said she has been considering resigning for weeks, conflicted by loyalty to Durham and concern about politics."
A U.S. Attorney resigning due to politics is like a Navy captain resigning due to water. It's an absurd excuse. (Dannehy has since confirmed her liberal credentials by being named General Counsel to Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont (D). It looks like Dannehy signed up for an investigation that would do nothing, and then resigned publicly when the American public demanded an update on her activities. Needless to say, there was no reason for Durham to name someone like Dannehy to help investigate the origins of the Russia Hoax when everybody knows that the Russia Hoax leads back directly to Democrats like Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
Remember that Durham and Dannehy and the rest of the Justice Department sat around and did nothing about the Russia Hoax through most of the Trump Administration - an inexcusable lapse that should never be forgotten. Their boss, Attorney General Bill Barr, played a heavy hand in the stolen 2020 election - and it was to ignore election fraud. Getting rid of President Trump has been the overriding goal of the FBI and the CIA and the DOJ since 2016 - and Durham is an employee of the DOJ. He's not Clint Eastwood and the Lone Ranger rolled up into one superhero.
The bottom line: hiring Nora Dannehy should make you wonder about John Durham.
Why should it suddenly be exciting to people to hear, one more time, that Hillary Clinton (and Barack Obama) spied on Donald Trump's campaign? Didn�t we know this already? Haven't we known this for almost six years?
Ask yourself: why would it take Durham more than 3 years to file these indictments?
Why has Democrat super attorney Marc Elias not been indicted yet? Why was the Democrat snakepit law-firm Perkins Coie allowed enough time to sever itself from Marc Elias last year (on August 22) while Durham was going over their billing records before filing charges (on September 16) against Perkins Coie partner Michael Sussmann? Let me hazard a guess. It's probably because Elias is absolutely essential to Democrat efforts to stop election integrity laws in various swing states across America. In other words, he's too valuable to the Biden Administration to be indicted right now. Maybe after the midterms.
How about National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan - was his indictment lost in the mail too? Sullivan is up to his neck in the Russia Hoax, and he's easy to find over at the White House with those blank eyes and that terrible haircut. Why hasn�t the Biden Administration been deprived of his services yet? The answer is perfectly obvious: Sullivan and Elias are getting the kid glove treatment from the U.S. federal government.
Just look at the Kevin Clinesmith case. The sentence was a complete farce. Durham asked for a few months in prison (which is absurd) as punishment and got nothing but probation. How�s that for justice? Clinesmith pled guilty to a felony, but he's not even been disbarred in Washington DC.
That's what happens when you charge national security officials who conspire against the President with process crimes. This should tell you that Durham�s investigation is basically a sham. It took 3 years just to get to the lowest tier of conspirators. By the time Durham gets to the major players in the Russia Hoax, we will all be living through the second Hunter Biden Administration.
Durham and his team have the habit of filing indictments at the last possible moment - usually a day or two before the statute of limitations expires. What does that mean? It means that Durham is playing for time. That's why media reports that Durham is "about to release his report" always turn out to be false. That's why the charges that Durham brings against bad FBI lawyers are very narrow and involve light sentencing. He wants his investigation to run as long as possible. Why would he want to do that?
My own theory is simple: Durham exists so that the FBI can regain some credit with the American public ("hey, those Clinton people lied to us!") while directing the media narrative away from Obama. You already see this misdirection in the corporate media headlines this week: Hillary did it. Durham exists, in other words, as a kind of insurance policy against the ambitions of the Clintons. His real goal is keep his investigation afloat through 2024. That would explain his slow, slow, slow progress. If Hillary Clinton suddenly decides to run in a primary against Biden/Harris for the 2024 ticket, then Lady Macbeth and her old campaign staff (Sussmann, Elias, Sullivan and the rest of them) will find themselves in very hot water.
If you find it implausible that national security officials spend all their time interfering in domestic politics and rigging elections - all I can say is: what cave have you been hiding in for the last six years? Perhaps you should listen to Overstock's ex-CEO Patrick Byrne explain how he assisted the FBI in setting up Hillary Clinton to accept a $18 million bribe in 2016 - a bribe that Byrne claims was engineered by James Comey to help President Obama keep control of Hillary once she won the election. Apparently, the plan was for Hillary Clinton to be POTUS in 2016 and 2020 before Michelle Obama took over in 2024 - that's what Byrne was told "by four officials of three different flavors" from our three-letter agencies at the time.
It's an incredible story - and you simply have to watch Byrne explain "Operation Snow Globe" in detail (it starts at minute 24:30). It's probably the best explanation of what really goes on inside the Deep State that we can expect to hear from a participant. Even so, Byrne's story simply confirms what you already know in your gut about America in 2022. We don't just have fraudulent elections due to electronic voting machines - we have fraudulent elections because the entire system is rotten. The system understands that it has to pretend to clean itself up too - because the illusion of "the consent of the governed" is still required. That's why Durham is pretending that he will clean up the Russia Hoax mess - but are you dumb enough to believe it?
He's going too slowly and charging the perpetrators too lightly to be taken seriously. Durham isn't dispensing justice - it's more like the pantomime of justice. That much should be obvious to you - even if the rubes over at Fox News want to get you hooked on indictment dreams all over again.
ONLY GOD CAN SAVE AMERICA.....PRAY!
Durham is clean up man for DOJ. He’s putting everything on the Clinton campaign.
Strangely missing from most of these name lists, is Bill Priestap. It appears he was more involved (FBI) than half of most of the lists.
Well said.
The question is, are we better off being teased with a pathetic, manipulated something, or absolutely nothing?
All the confidence I might have had in Durham, sank in the lake with the SS William Barr.
Sadly I believe Emerald is correct here.
A couple of ways an investigation is used to cover up a crime. We’ve seen many of these used starting in the Clinton days to the present.
One, you have an honest investigator reporting his findings which alert others to the threads that need to be tied off. We saw this in the Clinton days.
Another, you run the investigation in slow motion. By the time you’re done years have gone by and nobody cares anymore.
You do the investigation in such excruciating detail that the overall crime gets lost in the volumes of data. Maybe some procedural issues get prosecuted, which allow people to believe their guy was only guilty of not dotting the i’s.
You aim your investigation where the crime isn’t, and avoid investigating where you don’t want to find it. You go after someone unrelated and get him for something unrelated, and call that a success. You go after an innocent and bankrupt him to the point he is willing to plead to some procedural crime just to make it stop.
In each of these cases the actual criminal can claim forever that it was all investigated and he was exonerated.
I remember the day Adm Rogers paid Trump a visit.!”
A few of us knew then, what had happened and how so many of our so called intel people were in bed with the Brit intel (5 eyes) monitoring everything candidate Trump and later president Trump said.
Few if any wanted to listen or hear about the reality Admiral Rogers told us.
Why it took the Justice Department almost 6 years to figure out those spying activities.
When dealing with the swamp information is well covered up to protect the guilty it’s how so many in D.C. make it to the top.
Durham is in the deep dig and has results it’s why the media is in a panic and making a mad dash to discredit him because he has the facts.
Take all not just a few to prevent a repeat.
Judge Nap tried to talk about it on Faux News, then he disappeared for a few weeks and returned with a different perspective.
Obama and his thugs did not want/need any FISA warrants to spy on/monitor/surveil Candidate Trump or President Elect Trump.
Napolitano: Obama Admin Used British GCHQ To Spy On Trump During Campaign
Posted By Tim Hains On Date March 14, 2017
On Monday, Fox News Channel judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano alleged that three intelligence sources had confirmed to him that the Obama administration used GCHQ (Britain's NSA) to spy on President Trump during the 2016 election so that there would be no paper trail.
"Three intelligence sources have informed Fox News that President Obama went outside the 'chain of command' to conduct the surveillance on Trump," he said. "Obama didn’t use the NSA, he didn’t use the CIA, he didn’t use the FBI, and he didn’t use the Department of Justice."
"What happened to the guy who ordered this? Resigned three days after Trump took office," he added.*
GCHQ nor Obama did nor required any paperwork to monitor and spy on candidate Trump.
All Obama had to do was have his AG Lynch make a phone call to Robert Hannigan @DCHQ and tell him to monitor candidate Trump and his people. No FISA stuff or judges nor paper trails.

Our mediots and most of our Congressiots have ignored the above and following for years!
Remember: Officially, the CIA and National Security Agency (NSA) have a foreign surveillance mission and domestic spying is prohibited by the CIA's 1947 charter.
It’s long past time to start cutting the FBI budget and closing FBI field offices. That’s the only thing that will get the attention of the FBI bureaucracy and get them to stop playing partisan games.
Great post, packed with information they hope we forget!
Nice goal, but as long as the government keeps growing, and it does, the bigger their personal police force will grow. Something more important to possibly fight for, is the independence of local law enforcement from Federal oversight and control.
Thanks.
Feel free to use any or all of it in the upcoming B$ in this crime of the century.
Anyone who has actually been paying attention knows that the system is absolutely rotten to the core, and that it will not police itself in any significant way. Durham is just another tool in their arsenal to delay and distract.
If I woke up tomorrow and discovered that DC had been nuked overnight and was nothing but a smoking radioactive ruin, my main thought would be to wonder who to address the thank you card to.
# NO!! I PRAY for DURHAM’S TEAM!! There MUST be JUSTICE!!
There should be. (justice), but it’s simply not gonna happen.
