    Durham previously has investigated law enforcement corruption, the destruction of CIA videotapes and the Boston FBI office's relationship with mobsters. He is to continue to serve as the chief federal prosecutor in Connecticut.

    Witch Hunt

    Nobody cares about the oranges of the Russian investigation. The end, Mueller's investigation, justifies ANY means, like leads from oppo research.

    Distraction. Desperation.


    FEAR


    They know that Congress and the FBI Counter-Intelligence is getting too close for comfort and Trump and the GOP can only stall/misdirect/distract/accuse/project/obstruct - for only so long


    sooner or later - the crimes will be exposed and this traitor and all the traitors that were bribed by Russia through the NRA - will all be exposed.

    In the meantime keep up your little witch hunts and railroad as many public servants who were mainly doing their jobs protecting the country -


    the truth cannot be covered up forever.

    There was no attempted coup': FBI's former top lawyer defends Russia probe
    Source: Washington Post


    Former top FBI lawyer James Baker offered a robust defense Friday of the bureau’s investigation into President Trump and his 2016 campaign, taking aim at Trump’s allegation that the inquiry was tantamount to a coup and describing how he sought to ensure agents’ work was on solid legal footing.

    “There was no attempted coup,” Baker said bluntly. “There was no way in that I was going to allow some coup or coup attempt to take place on my watch.”


    The comments, which came at a taping of the Lawfare podcast in front of a live audience at the Brookings Ins ution, were Baker’s first public remarks on the investigation that would eventually be taken over by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III. Baker had addressed questions about the probe previously only in private sessions with congressional committees, though transcripts of those comments were later released.

    Baker, who was interviewed by Lawfare editor in chief Ben Wittes, said he was motivated to talk because he “just became sick of all the BS that is said about the origins of the investigation,” and he wanted to “reassure the American people that it was done for lawful, legitimate reason.”

    The Justice Department inspector general is investigating the handling of various aspects of the Russia case, and Attorney General William P. Barr has said he will conduct a separate review. Barr recently alleged that government “spying” occurred on the Trump campaign, and while he has insisted he did not mean to imply wrongdoing, critics note that his language mirrors the president’s attacks on the bureau and its investigation. Baker was the FBI’s general counsel when the Russia probe was initiated and when Mueller took over. He was reassigned from the top legal post in December 2017 after he got caught up in an FBI leak probe, and he confirmed Friday the case is ongoing.

    Puts the dark cloud of investigation over the FBI during the 2020 campaign. While wielding all the dark arts of the DEEP STATE against his opponents, Trump will pretend to run against it again.

    lol spying


    all trump traitors had to do was pick up the phone and report the contacts from Russia to the FBI -

    boom - end of "spying"

    Instead they welcomed it - just like the disgusting traitors they were, are and always will be.

    Is that really the case?

    I mean we have Graham openly telling Trump Junya to ignore a subpoena. This is a man who's a key member of the senate saying this.

    Congress is only saying they are doing something but they aren't. not with people like Graham, Cruz those ilks.

    why would graham openly tell a suspect to break the law

    is he worried his russian money will be traced to him?

    didnt you see the R’s in congress run interference for trump when they were the majority?

    this is a classic cover up and repukes are working hard to bury the evidence

    On the contrary, as Trump's lawyers often argue, POTUS is above the law. Can't be investigated by Congress, can't be indicted by DOJ.

    But he can do the very thing he has accused others of doing, using the power of the state against his political enemies leading up to an election.

    Seems like a bad precedent was set during a previous administration.
