Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz announced late Thursday his office will release the highly anticipated report about how the FBI handled various aspects of the 2016 presidential election on Thursday, June 14.
The announcement comes after Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley again rescheduled a hearing, originally set for June 5, to go over the long awaited OIG investigation findings.
"Thank you for inviting me to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee on June 18, 2018, about the findings in the Office of the Inspector General's (OIG) forthcoming Review of Allegations Regarding Various Actions by the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) and the Department of Justice (Department) in advance of the 2016 Election," Horowitz wrote in a letter to Grassley and Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein Thursday afternoon.
"Prior to the June 18 hearing, the OIG intends to release our report publicly and to provide the report's classified appendix to our oversight committees," the letter continues. "We anticipate releasing the report on June 14, 2018."
Horowitz will testify under oath in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. The hearing is titled, "Examining the Inspector General’s First Report on Justice Department and FBI Actions in Advance of the 2016 Presidential Election." The report is expected to span nearly 500-pages.
Grassley has also requested other witnesses testify about the OIG findings, including former Deputy FBI Andrew McCabe. McCabe has reportedly been in talks with the Committee about receiving immunity in exchange for his testimony. He was fired earlier this year by Attorney General Jeff Sessions for lying multiple times to federal investigators, including agents working for the FBI and OIG.
After he's done with the Senate, Horowitz will sit in front of the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees for questions about the findings in the OIG report.
Flag Day.
How much did Rosenweasel “bleach” out?
How many criminal referrals will be made?
Pffffffffffffffffffft.
Took them long enough to white wash it.
President Trump’s birthday - co incidence?
We actually pay these fruitcakes.
Might as well be on a Friday. People have to read it don’t they.
Gives the elite time to skip the country.
Go Sessions! To Hell with the haters! Kick the Deep State’s ass!
I didn’t realize that, maybe a good omen? :^)
On release day:
Funny how this 400 page document fits into this one business envelope. Did you guys redact something or lose something?
Your hero is on his knees fluffing the deep state
And if had any balls whatsoever he would Release it Tomorrow Morning to the Public and tell Congress he meant their copies will come on the 14th
Cue up the picture of Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown! Again.
Support Free Republic, Folks!
Yes - flag day is President Trump’s b’day.
Not bad. If they would have released it tomorrow, on a weekend before the NORK summit, it clearly would have been an attempt to bury it. Would have preferred a week ago, but this will have to do. I’m more concerned about the redactions the IG might have caved on.
someone told me that the pain begins on monday.
“I didn’t realize that, maybe a good omen? :^)”
One extreme or the other, that’s for sure. Either a total slam on Trump, or V-Rat day.
My dream would be to have arrests occurring AS the news conference progresses.
