    Barr is said to be acting like the president's personal attorney. This is evidence that he is doing just that. Barr is going after the FBI because Trump wants revenge because the truth about Russian interference was eclipsed by Mueller.

    This is nothing but abuse of power by Trump and very likely a criminal act by Barr to falsely accuse an American agency of a crime by abusing his power as an AG. The AG needs to petform his job as the AG of America not the fixer, liar, or toady of any president.

    No, it's evidence that there were crimes committed by the corrupt Obama DOJ. It was the Dems that falsely accused the President of a conspiracy with Russia that has lead to this.

    The noose is getting tight...the Dems are in full panic mode...

    Well let us all see how this plays out. You are naïve if you think that this inquiry becoming a criminal investigation isn't a big deal. Durham now has subpoena power as well as the authority to take evidence to a Grand Jury. This very well could be a game changer.

    We are a bananarepublic, ever since Obama took in the reigns. Trying to reverse it, though.

    I suppose us lefties could cry out, 'Witch Hunt', 'Total Hoax', 'Fake News' on a daily basis through this process. But I think it's best just to wait it out and see what comes in the end.

    Sounds good.

    Dueling Investigations and an UNHINGED, MENTALLY-DISTURBED Donald Trump in the WH.

    What could go wrong?

    Only when they use fake dossiers and fake FISA warrants.

    1. Nobody is above the law
    2. If they are innocent, they should welcome the investigation

    Nadler and Schiff are already ready accusing both of them.

    Even when the investigation is without legal merit or justification? Even when the so-called "investigation" is really nothing more than retributive harassment?

    One would think a better question would be what could go right! This is an opportunity for the facts regarding the FISA issue to be brought to the surface. I have no doubt that Durham's criminal investigation is going to be very interesting indeed. When and IF Schiffs inquiry ever leads to an actual vote, and a true investigation starts I will pay attention to that mess.

    I believe that people that are under investigation should comply.

    Why is this so difficult for you to understand?

    I literally just commented on it.
    I do not understand what implications you are referring to.

    I am I ignoring something by asking you to clarify your point?

    Yea, I've heard it yesterday - Barr is doing Trump's bidding instead of working for American people.

    Sickening. :frustrated:

    The opening of an investigation doesn't equal evidence. Accusation doesn't equal conviction. People thought that candidate Trump or his organization may have conspired with the Russians during the election. There was an investigation and no definitive proof was found. As has been said, go ahead and investigate. If substantial proof is found then hold a trial. If anyone is convicted then let them be punished.

    Sounds like you have already and summarily dismissed any and all the evidence that may/will be presented against FBI and CIA officials... as have been expected from you and yours.

    Good times ahead :rock_slayer:

    You mean the fact that the investigation started after Trump took office. :)

    I'll play. The implications are that John Durham can now subpoena witnesses and documents, impanel a grand jury and file criminal charges. Excellent news for all who thought that equal justice under the law was dead.
