IG Horowitz's report likely to damage Comey, frustrate Trump, pressure Barr's handpicked successor

On Monday, the partisans in the swamp of Washington will get something they have been pining for. At last, the much-hyped, long-delayed Department of Justice Inspector General's report on possible FISA abuse--the process by which the FBI got permission to surveil an American citizen, Carter Page, once affiliated with Donald Trump's presidential campaign--will finally be released.

ormer Federal Bureau of Investigation Director James Comey is surrounded by reporters after testifying to the House Judiciary and Oversight and Government Reform committees at the Rayburn House Office Building on Capitol Hill December 07, 2018 in Washington, DC.For Democrats, there is more fear than hope attached to the report's release and Horowitz's expected December 11 testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

US President Donald Trump speaks at the NATO summit in Watford, northeast of London on December 4, 2019. Trump is facing impeachment over his alleged misconduct towards Ukraine.In pursuing this investigation, Justice Department guidelines say only DOJ employees must sit for interviews with Horowitz and his staff. Anyone else, including former DOJ officials or officials from other intelligence agencies, can be asked to cooperate. But they don't have to do so.

The problem with that assertion, according to five current and former DOJ officials, is that it's false. First, in this case, Steele was merely a messenger, delivering information provided by sources in Russia. They are the ones whose credibility needs to be assessed. Did the FBI do that? To what extent? And what did they find? Horowitz will tell us, and hints from current and former DOJ officials suggest the news will not be good for Comey & Co, who ran the Russia investigation.

🤔🤔

Way to get out front of it. Suspecting this is the last we'll hear from you about it Newsweak.

Keep on spinning. Monday will be here soon enough.

Trump nie ma szans na wygraną . Jemes Comey doskonale zdaje sobie z tego skórę.

Nic już Comey nie może zrobić. To są konsekwencje Jego działań . Pokrętnych To jedna wielka bomba Gdzie ponosi konsekwencje całe społeczeństwo. I nie robić z tego show.

Starting with the spin early I see

It’s no wonder Comey feels above it all.

Pressure Barr’s handpicked prosecutor? His job is to follow the law, not an agenda. Frustrate trumpI don’t care, do you?

No. The IG report names Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and other Democrat Party leaders and members of high crimes. Treasonous crimes. Crimes punishable by death.
