| Turley on Next Steps with Durham Findings: Congress can now use that foundation to compel cooperation from key figures in this scandal, |
| 2023-05-19 |
| [Turley] For those interested in the truth about the Russian collusion investigation, the Durham Report has hundreds of pages of details of the alliance of political, government and media figures behind arguably the greatest hoax in U.S. history. The only thing it does not have is an actual indictment or true accountability for the critical players in an effort to derail an American presidency. Indeed, some witnesses associated with the Clinton campaign appear to have refused to cooperate with the investigation. Congress could change that. Buried in the detailed account is a little noticed footnote stating that Clinton General Counsel Marc Elias “declined to be voluntarily interviewed by the Office.” Likewise, Durham noted that “no one at Fusion GPS … would agree to voluntarily speak with the Office” while both the DNC and Clinton campaign invoked privileges to refuse to answer certain questions. It is not clear whether Durham was able to get a full account from these sources, but he was still able to establish the details on how this unprecedented political hit job succeeded despite a lack of evidence. In the course of that account, Durham demolished the prior claims of Democratic members like Adam Schiff and many in the media. Durham concludes that the investigation should never have been launched and that the whole effort was based on “raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated” information. It turns out that the “pee-tape” was the creation of a Clinton operative without any factual basis despite years of the media (and former FBI Director James Comey) referencing the false salacious claim.

| #4 The Durham Report is damning but it is also rolled out in such a way as to cause as little hazard as possible to “important institutions.” The end result is that nobody likes it. Metaphorically, it is a ping pong ball thrown into a room of ping pong balls loaded on mousetraps. That is the current state of our body politic. I can’t make a prediction on what the result will be. Neither can Durham. |

| #3 I am not a lawyer; but can the House do anything besides refer them to the DOJ for prosecution which will never happen? |

| #2 Compel cooperation from people who disregard the law, their oath and who basically lied to Congress previously? For a lawyer to not know or understand his adversary says a lot about Turley. |

| #1 The only thing it does not have is an actual indictment or true accountability for the critical players in an effort to derail an American presidency. Sadly, nor will it ever. |
