Carter Page’s recent letter to Lindsay Grahame strongly implies that he was not even interviewed by the OIG. Sine Page is an important witness, it this is the case the whole Report is a farce (but we knew that).
I wonder if McCain and Romney were much better.
Exactly
The F.B.I. did have an undercover agent who posed as Mr. Halper’s assistant during a London meeting with Mr. Papadopoulos in August 2016. And indeed, another Trump adviser, Peter Navarro, reportedly pushed Mr. Halper for an ambassadorship in the Trump administration. Mr. Halper turned down the job and told the F.B.I. that Mr. Navarro had made the overture, according to a person familiar with the offer. Mr. Horowitz found no evidence that Mr. Halper tried to infiltrate the Trump campaign itself, the people familiar with the draft report said, such as by seeking inside campaign information or a role in the organization. The F.B.I. also never directed him to do so, former officials said. Instead, Mr. Halper focused on eliciting information from Mr. Page and Mr. Papadopoulos about their ties to Russia. Mr. Barr has suggested that the F.B.I. assigned other informants as well to figure out whether any Trump associates were working with the Russians. The F.B.I. gave Mr. Horowitz’s team extraordinary access to its informant database, and his investigators examined other F.B.I. informants with possible ties to the Trump campaign. In each case, they found that the F.B.I. had not deployed those people to gather information on the Trump campaign itself, the people said. It is also possible that the F.B.I. received unsolicited material from inside the Trump campaign; outsiders often submit potential evidence to the bureau that agents did not seek. But it is not clear whether Mr. Horowitz uncovered any such instances.
Whitewash.

ANOTHER whitewash. Situation normal — its what IG’s do. They are NOT watch dogs; they are guard dogs who protect their agencies.
They are a key defense mechanism used by the Swamp.
Mistakes were made. How many times have we heard that before?
It will be interesting to watch Horowitz testify before the senate. He’ll be spinning like a top. And then then gullible senators will thank him for doing such a thorough job.
The only positive to come out of this report will be that it reveals just how totally corrupt and crooked our government really is. That will be unmistakably clear.
While I don’t trust the New York Times there are no reasons to trust Horowtiz either.
If this story is true, it sure did take Horowitz an awfully long time to come up with nothing.
**************
It takes a lot of time, effort and creativity to obfuscate, spin and excuse obvious malfeasance.
Looks more and more like the FBI is basically saying this is a CIA thing not us.
The fox investigated what happened to the hens.

And declared no harm, no fowl.
Maybe I should have put a sarcasm tag on the end of my statement. I thought it was obvious enough using a Comey let Clinton get out of jail free card statement. And yes Horowitz already whitewashed the last two reports, we shouldn’t expect a different result on this one. That would be insane.
I’m waiting for Gateway Pundit to tell me why this is all really a good thing.
Ummmm... we already know for a fact that they did... what the hell is this guy talking about?
Even the Slimes knows this is false, but they’re part of the cabal and have to continue the cover up!
/s <-— Yes. I’m slow sometimes
Quit trying to ‘gaslight’ us ...
Is a Constitutional Amendment required to move the US Capital out of deep state central to a more Trump-friendly locale?
This.

He stated that directly on Jeannine Pirro's show last weekend.
