    God I hope someone has enough sand in their marble sack to get to the bottom of this. But we are trusting our government to oversee our government here. Not getting the warm and fuzzies at all.

    It's called reading between the lines, I made a thread post outlining criminal activity by the FBI, which Horowitz wanted to excuse away.

    The Obama position coincided with the EU and the western European agencies for reconstruction, along with the International Monetary Fund, all of whom were being asked for aid money from Ukraine. The Ukrainian Chief Prosecutor Viktor Shokin, whom all wanted gone prior to grants or aid, was not investigating corruption sufficiently in their opinion. Shokin was a good friend of pro-Russian Ukrainian oligarch Dmitry Firtash, now under house arrest and out on $120 million bail, in Vienna Austria, awaiting extradition to the U.S. on charges of fraud and bribery in a Boeing Aircraft Company case in Chicago, regarding a global competitive bid on titanium. It was Shokin who testified in a deposition prepared for Firtash's legal fight against extradition that Biden wanted him fired because of fear that he would investigate Biden's son. And, it was Shokin who provided a copy of his deposition to Rudy Giuiliani. It was Shokin and former prosecutor Lenshenko who were meeting with Rudy last week, in Ukraine.

    If any of us lied or omitted statements under oath, we'd be in prison right now. James Comey is the perfect example of an individual who doesn't know how good he has it.

    The IG report claims there was no documentary proof of bias. First, how can he know that and second so what? If you're speeding are you going to get off by saying you didn't intend to? Funny how all those 'errors' just happened to go against Trump.

    My question is, if Durham ends up indicting Deep Staters, will the resident LW here call him a Trump flack like they wrongly slander Barr?

    The apologists for Biden want us to think that Biden was upset that Shokin wasn’t investigating Burisma. Fascinating.

    Trump IS the administration, and the request to cooperate in the investigation was regarding 2016.

    They're already doing that, just like their hypocrisy with no person is above the law. But this is important: This isn't about Donald Trump, this is about ALL of us. People aren't comprehending the privileges the FBI through Horowitz is asserting. The FBI essentially is saying whether you're guilty or innocent doesn't matter, and the presumption of innocence doesn't apply.

    These are extraordinarily dangerous times and by continuing to insert Trump's name, we undermine the violations that occurred.

    LOL, you run with that. I'm looking forward to reading your next excuse when Durham fails to issue indictments and you claim him to be a part of the swamp.

    Reading between the lines. LOL

    The real world translates that to grasping at straws because the IG report is a massive failure for Trumpers.

    And the Mueller report had 10 instances of Obstruction of justice outlined, yet not a peep from Trump lovers. LOL

    Wrong. If I were a prosecutor, there's more than substantial evidence outlined for perjury and I would ask for indictments from the grand jury.

    He obstructed by giving us the information that would go onto clear him and his campaign of wrongdoing!

    This is a dark day for the FBI and the rule of law, where we essentially get confirmation that the alternative reporting was right, from the start. We had agents who saw themselves above the law, who edited information, withheld information and outright fabricated information.

    Sorry...not a Biden apologist. He's old enough to look after himself. Only pointing out that while Biden was following U.S. policy in Ukraine, Trump's extortionist attempt wasn't.

    Which his own administration had already settled (Russia interfered) and FBI Director Christopher Wray confirmed a few hours ago, along with "we have no information that Ukraine interfered in the 2016 election."
    Also, you realize, of course, that Barr could scrap the DoJ opinion regarding the President's exclusion from indictment and have him indicted, should he determine such is justified.
