Breaking: John Durham releases final report concluding FBI had no verified intel when it opened probe on Trump
Just the News ^ | May 15, 2023 | John Solomon

Special Counsel John Durham released his final report Monday after more than three years investigating the Russia collusion probe, declaring the FBI has no verified intelligence or evidence when it opened up the Crossfire Hurricane probe of President Donald Trump's campaign in the summer of 2016.

"Neither U.S. law enforcement nor the Intelligence Community appears to have possessed any actual evidence of collusion in their holdings at the commencement of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation," Durham wrote in a 300-plus page report sent to Congress and others and obtained by Just the News. DO was slated to make the report public later Moday.

The prosecutor's faulted the FBI and Justice Department for failing to follow their own standards and allowing a probe to persist, including the surveillance of an American citizen without basis under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

"Based on the review of Crossfire Hurricane and related intelligence activities, we concluded the Department and the FBI failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law in connection with certain events and activities described in this report," Durham wrote.

"The FBI personnel also repeatedly disregarded important requirements when they continued to seek renewals of that FISA surveillance while acknowledging -- both then and in hindsight -- that they did not genuinely believe there was probably cause to believe that the target was knowingly engaged in clandestine intelligence activities on behalf of foreign power."

Nothing we didn't already know or suspect. This is a breaking story and more details from the Durham Report will soon be known.

Another thing we already know is that NOBODY IN THE FBI will be punished for these dereliction of duties.

Durham concluded the Steele dossier was a complete joke and that the FBI failed to corroborate any of its key claims: “Our investigation determined that the Crossfire Hurricane investigators did not and could not corroborate any of the substantive allegations contained in the the Steele reporting.”— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) May 15, 2023

MORE from Durham’s 306-page report, which @FDRLST
has obtained: “FBI records prepared by [Peter] Strzok in February and March 2017 show that at the time of the opening of Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI had no information in its holdings indicating that at any time during the…— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) May 15, 2023

it would/does not matter that the FIB was paid to ignore

commit treason to destroy the Republic.

The more salient and important point is that the crooked feds knew this but didn't care because they knew there would be little to no repercussions for essentially committing a fraud against the American electorate. That's how corrupt societies work, which sadly we have become.

How much money and time has been spent by Durham to conclude what the vast majority of us knew by no later than March of 2017?

It’s not dereliction... it was an open 4th Amendment violation that began against a Presidential Candidate that continued throughout his Presidency... compromising National Security as it led to his NSA advisor resigning.

So, the bottom line is this: I was wrong. I thought it was Durham's job was to take Hillary (and Billy) OUT of the political process because they suck the O2 out of the room just like an Escalade in Jolton’ “Joe's” Motorcade to Rehobeth. No such indication that this will happen. The Witch and Warlock from Littl’Rock and Chappaqua get away with it once again…
Business as usual, and now we have another 300 page REPORT that does nothing to right the dastardly wrongs perpetrated on the American Citizen.
