MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace dismisses Durham report: 'Whole thing' is a 'rabbit hole conspiracy' theory

 

May 16, 2023

The Deep State Propaganda Media have all been caught in the BIG LIE about Donald Trump.  Of course, they are going to make lite of the report.  They need to own it, step up and tell the truth.  But can they really tell the truth about anything anymore?

Special Counsel John Durham released a report on "Crossfire Hurricane" on Monday

MSNBC’s "Deadline: White House" discussed the 300-page report released just hours prior regarding the "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation into whether former President Trump colluded with Russia to influence the 2016 election. Durham found the investigation was marred by a "lack of analytical rigor, apparent confirmation bias, and an over-willingness to rely on information from individuals connected to political opponents."

However, a panel including former FBI agent Frank Figliuzzi and former attorney for the Mueller investigation Andrew Weissman attacked Durham and the report, insisting that it was based on "conspiracy."

General Flynn responds to the John Durham Report…

May 16, 2023

” This report must be a rally cry for all freedom-loving Americans”


Today, special counsel John Durham released his report on his findings regarding the FBI’s investigation into the Trump Russia collusion conspiracy. The result is striking. There never was any basis to investigate President Trump, me, or anyone else in the Trump campaign over fake claims of Russian collusion claims that were a fiction invented by Hillary Clinton’s campaign and pursued by a weaponized and politicized FBI and Department of Justice. This was not just a crime against President Trump, my family, and me, but also against the American people and our constitutional system of government. It must never be allowed to happen again.

This report provides further vindication that the FBI investigation that targeted and persecuted me and my family should have never occurred. While I appreciate the further vindication explained in this report, thanks to the dedicated work from John Durham and his team, I am still angered that this ever was allowed to happen in the first place. The American people were robbed of millions of taxpayer dollars due to this hoax meant to target President Trump, me, and our supporters.

My family and I were attacked for years due to lies. Where do we go for justice? How do I get those lost years of my life back? This is why I have sued the Department of Justice there must be accountability if our constitutional republic is to survive. The FBI dragged my name through the mud for years despite the entire basis of their investigation being built on a lie. A lie that they knew about.

Notably, the report emphatically states that the FBI never had any type of evidence that I engaged in any conspiracy with Russia. The FBI instead apparently went forward with their investigation because I was a member of the Trump campaign who had visited Russia. The FBI opened this fraudulent investigation against me and the Trump campaign despite providing no defensive briefings, either before or after they opened the investigation, to President Trump or anyone in the campaign. Importantly, the report emphasized on page sixty-six that the investigations into me and others in the Trump campaign “had not resulted in the collection of any inculpatory information.”

The report itself provides evidence that the FBI had insufficient, predicate intelligence to open an investigation, that the FBI did not properly analyze any information, and that the FBI had a biased predisposition to open an investigation.

We need to restore accountability in this country before it is too late. We cannot allow witch hunts initiated by our justice system to occur simply based on political biases.

This report provides what we knew all along: the Trump-Russia investigation was a conspiracy, not based on fact, but instead, politically driven. The partisan corporate news media will try to bury this report and hope that the American people quickly forget about it. We must resist this temptation. This report must be a rally cry for all freedom-loving Americans, of all parties and persuasions, to fight back against a politicized federal law enforcement and justice system. If we do not fight back now, the America we love may be lost forever.

Durham probe findings could cause lasting damage to 'trust' in intel community: Former federal prosecutor

 

May 15, 2023

'The intelligence and law enforcement apparatus of the government was put in the service of the politics of one party,' Andrew McCarthy said

A former federal prosecutor told Fox News Monday the conclusions of the Durham report compound the already tenuous public trust in the American intelligence community.

Andrew McCarthy, the former Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, said the release of the Durham report's investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia collusion allegations only adds fuel to the reputational fire at the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies.

The report, which former U.S. Attorney for Connecticut John Durham was tapped to compose, found the FBI "failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law" in launching its lengthy probe into whether Donald Trump or his campaign colluded with the Kremlin to defeat Hillary Rodham Clinton in the 2016 election.

Durham report: FBI displayed 'markedly different' treatment of Clinton, Trump campaigns

Durham says the FBI and DOJ ignored information on a 'Clinton campaign plan to vilify Trump'

The FBI and Justice Department jumped to investigate former President Trump's campaign despite a lack of sound evidence, a "notable departure" from the way it resisted efforts to investigate claims against Hillary Clinton's campaign, according to Special Counsel John Durham's final report on the probe into alleged election collusion between Trump and Russia.

Durham's long awaited report from his investigation into FBI's "Crossfire Hurricane" probe was delivered to Congress on Monday and revealed that FBI and DOJ "failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law" when it launched the Trump-Russia investigation.

Durham's report also highlighted that the Trump investigation was "markedly different" from the government's level of interest in Clinton's campaign.

Durham's report found DOJ, FBI 'failed to uphold' mission of 'strict fidelity to the law' in Trump-Russia probe

 Former President Trump said Monday that former FBI Director James Comey and Democrats need to be held accountable for spending years investigating alleged collusion between Trump and Russia now that Special Counsel John Durham has released a report that says the Trump-Russia probe never should have been launched.

"I, and much more importantly, then American public have been victims of this long-running and treasonous charade started by the Democrats — started by Comey," Trump told Fox News Digital. "There must be a heavy price to pay for putting our country through this."

Durham's report found that the Department of Justice and FBI "failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law" when it launched the Trump-Russia investigation.

Special Counsel John Durham found that the Department of Justice and FBI "failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law" when it launched the Trump-Russia investigation

Fox News Digital obtained Durham’s report Monday afternoon after his years-long investigation into the origins of the FBI’s original investigation, known as "Crossfire Hurricane." That investigation looked into whether the Trump campaign coordinated with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election.

Durham gave his final report to the Justice Department, which released it Monday afternoon. The report spans more than 300 pages.

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

In Final Report, Trump-Era Special Counsel Denounces Russia Investigation






 May 15, 2023

After four years of investigating the Russia inquiry, John Durham turned in a report that was made public on Monday.

John Durham, the Trump-era special counsel who for four years has pursued a politically fraught investigation into the Russia inquiry, accused the F.B.I. of having “discounted or willfully ignored material information that did not support the narrative of a collusive relationship between Trump and Russia” in a final report made public on Monday.

Mr. Durham’s 306-page report revealed little substantial new information about the inquiry, known as Crossfire Hurricane, and it failed to produce the kinds of blockbuster revelations impugning the bureau of politically motivated misconduct that former President Donald J. Trump and his allies suggested Mr. Durham would uncover.

The explosive new evidence of Biden family's breathtaking corruption

 

May 14, 2023

The alleged actions of Joe Biden may rise to the level of an impeachable offense

The sheer magnitude of Biden family corruption uncovered by the House Oversight Committee can only be described as breathtaking. It is also deeply alarming. If the fruits of Chairman James Comer’s investigation are exactly what they appear to be, Joe Biden may have jeopardized our nation’s security by selling out America for cold hard cash.

Documents show that over $10 million in foreign money flowed like a river into more than 20 shell companies and LLCs created for the Bidens’ financial benefit, said Comer. Much of it was then surreptitiously shuffled around various accounts before it landed in the hands of nine members of the president’s family. Those companies have no apparent business purpose other than to serve as a receptacle for hiding cash derived from suspected influence peddling schemes overseas.

Fed Governor Waller casts doubt on need to conduct climate change tests for banks

 

May 12, 2023

Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller on Thursday cast doubt on the need for special focus on how banks are preparing for climate change risks.

While acknowledging the risks that climate change poses, he said catastrophic events like hurricanes and floods don’t generally reverberate across the U.S. economy. Thus, he said that conducting special tests for how banks are preparing for such events probably shouldn’t fall under the Fed’s purview.

“I don’t see a need for special treatment for climate-related risks in our financial stability monitoring and policies,” Waller said in the prepared remarks for a speech in Madrid. “Based on what I’ve seen so far, I believe that placing an outsized focus on climate-related risks is not needed, and the Federal Reserve should focus on more near-term and material risks in keeping with our mandate.”

New York AG Suing Gun Manufacturer for Aiding Mass Shooter


May 12, 2023

New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit against a gun accessory manufacturer on Thursday, alleging that the business facilitated the illegal possession of weapons in the state.

The lawsuit (pdf) has been filed against Georgia-based Mean Arms for allegedly aiding in the illegal possession of assault weapons in New York, including the weapon used in the Buffalo mass shooting in May last year, according to a May 11 press release. The shooting incident in Buffalo ended up killing 10 people and injuring three.

The shooter is said to have purchased a used semiautomatic AR-15 rifle a few months before the incident in January 2022. The AR-15 had a magazine lock (MA lock) installed, which was manufactured by Mean Arms.

A Banking Crisis Shouldn’t Be the Taxpayer’s Problem.

 

May 12, 2023

Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase, Jamie Dimon wrote shareholders about banking turmoil, “As I write this letter, the current crisis is not yet over, and even when it is behind us, there will be repercussions from it for years to come.”

IGI Global defines a banking crisis:

1. Banking crisis reflects the crisis of liquidity and insolvency of one or more banks in the financial system. Due to bank’s sizable losses, bank encounters critical liquidity shortage…disrupting its ability in repaying the debt contracts and the withdrawals demanded by depositors.

2. A subset of financial crises that are felt acutely within the banking sector…having national and international implications wherein either the given capital of the banking system is practically exhausted,…or where the cost of resolving the problems of a financial system amounts to at least 3-5% of the national Gross Domestic Product.

Banks lose billions on high-risk investments, creating a tsunami of economic problems. Private businesses fail all the time. Why is the banking system treated differently?

Biden green-lights aggressive power plant emissions restrictions, hamstringing fossil fuel generation

Prematurely retiring coal-fired power plants will 'exacerbate the risk of power outages,' power industry group says

The Biden administration unveiled highly-anticipated regulations targeting fossil fuel-fired power plant emissions in an action it said would improve public health, but lead to higher electricity prices.

The new carbon pollution standards — published Thursday morning by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) — would mainly impact coal- and natural gas-fired power plants and curb carbon dioxide emissions by about 617 million metric tons through 2042, the equivalent carbon footprint of 137 million passenger vehicles, according to the agency.

EPA's regulations are projected to have "climate and health benefits" worth $85 billion and reduce ther amount of air pollutants and soot in the air.

Investigators unearth evidence CIA, Antony Blinken played deceptive politics on Hunter Biden laptop

 

May 12, 2023

From its inception in 1947, the CIA has been barred from spying on Americans, conducting internal security functions or meddling in U.S. domestic affairs. As recently as last week, Secretary of State Antony Blinken was insisting he is apolitical too. "From my perspective, I'm not not engaging in politics," America's top diplomat declared.

Both of those long-held claims are directly challenged by a new joint investigative report set to be released Wednesday by the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees that traces the origins of the now-infamous letter signed in fall 2020 by 51 U.S. intelligence pros who falsely discredited Hunter Biden's laptop in the final days of the 2020 election as Russian disinformation.

Washington Democrat Governor Inslee Signs Controversial Bill Allowing Government to Take Away Minors From Parents If They Refuse to Agree to Gender Transition Surgery

 

May 12, 2023

On Tuesday, Governor Jay Inslee (D-WA) signed the controversial Senate Bill 5599 introduced by State Sen. Marko Liias (D-Everett), which allows the state to legally take children away from their parents if they don’t consent to their child’s gender transition surgeries or abortion.

Washington state’s current law requires that any youth shelter where a child seeks refuge must notify their parents or guardians within 24 to 72 hours. However, the state law allows them to not tell the parents or legal guardians if they have “compelling reasons” to believe that doing so would put the kid in danger of abuse or neglect.

The newly signed law will allow the government to hide the whereabouts of runaway children who claim to be seeking sex changes or abortions. Meaning, no one can protest the “state-sanctioned kidnapping of children.”

Senate Bill 5599 will remove parents from the health and mental health care decision-making process of their children.
