Comey on List of Criminal Referrals in DOJ IG Findings
Newsmax ^ | 11/12/2019 | Brian Freeman

Posted on 11/12/2019 12:02:18 PM PST by Kevin in California

Department of Justice inspector general Michael Horowitz is expected to make multiple criminal referrals as part of his report based on his probe of how the FBI dug into President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign, according to journalist Sara Carter. One of those criminal referrals is expected to be former FBI director James Comey, according to two sources, the report claims. House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Biggs told Sean Hannity of Fox News that several other top government figures — such as former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe and former U.S. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein — may also be found "culpable." Horowitz's report is expected to be made public before the end of November. His investigation is also expected to reveal that the FBI knew before securing a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant to spy on former Trump campaign advisor Carter Page that ex-British spy Christopher Steele's controversial dossier on Trump could not be verified, according to Carter. The report may also throw a wrench into House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff's impeachment inquiry of Trump. According to Carter's news report, Horowitz's findings will make it clear that Schiff's backing of the FBI's FISA warrant on Page was entirely based on the California Democrat's bias against Trump and not on any objective considerations. Many Republican officials say that Schiff's single-mindedness on impeachment proceedings against the president demonstrates this continued bias, Carter reported. Attorney General William Barr has directed federal prosecutor John Durham to investigate the FBI in how it handled its investigation of Trump's 2016 campaign.

[ Sessions was petrified ]

I tend to think so too.

My guess is he received a “call” with just a voice on the other end of the line. No identification, just a quick comment or two. /adjusts tinfoil hat

I’d be happy to know that for sure but it’s all speculation at this point. I would love for some real progress to be made.

"Prosecution of the former AG was declined."

Trump kept him on for two years. He could have replaced him at any time he wanted, no questions asked. That’s an exclusive power of the Presidency, validated by SCOTUS. Group think around here invented all sorts of excuses for why Trump “couldn’t” replace him because otherwise it would mean that Trump wanted him there, and that their favorite story has been bunk.

Sessions should come clean.

Especially if he wants to go back to the Senate.

Who would know better?
