Barr: Comey refusal to reinstate security clearance a 'problem' in FISA investigation
2019-12-12
BLUF:
[Washington Examiner] In his report, Horowitz said Comey was one of a number of former FBI employees who "chose not to request that their security clearances be reinstated for their [inspector general] interviews" and "therefore, we were unable to provide classified information or documents to them during their interviews to develop their testimony, or to assist their recollections of relevant events."

#4  "...Someone like Durham can compel testimony, he can talk to a whole range of people, private parties, foreign governments, and so forth.”

Declassification and Durham criminal investigation might clear up a lot of these problems.

I noticed Senator Sheldon Whitehouse D-RI) was probing around the edges in the Horowitz hearing to try to get at what Durham was up to. Horowitz did not know or had not talked with him.

The attacks on Bar, Durham and Rudy Giuliani have increased.

#3  Once being deposed for two days, I had to see a couple of documents before my memory came flooding back. So not seeing those docs, I could have (and did) respond, "I don't remember". Once refreshed, I did remember.

Without the documents, I could have lied about remembering, and still not have been confronted with the truth.

#2  Why would an innocent person do this, and why would a guilty person not?

#1  Oh, your clearance has expired? No problem, we'll just grant an administrative extension to your Periodic Re-Investigation (PR) for the duration of the investigation.

Still a no-go? No problem, we'll simply 'declassify' all related documentation.

There, how we doing so far ?
