'Maybe the Clintons won't get away with it after all':Trump retweets message after federal prosecutor John Durham's probe into the FBI's Russia investigation expands to look into corruption allegations at the Clinton Foundation
2020-09-28
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Durham was put in charge of review into Russia probe by AG Bill Barr

  • But it is claimed that Durham's team is also looking at Clinton Foundation inquiry

  • Clinton probe, looking into alleged bribery and corruption at the charity, was contemporaneous with but separate to Russia inquiry into foreign interference

  • It suggests a broader scope to Durham's review which will worry Democrats

  • Trump joins other Republicans in hinting at a potential pre-election bombshell

#7   My though was since all of that involves democrats and their misbehavior it would be seen as partisan.

I spoke of shoulds and oughts. I very much hope I am right, too, NoMoreBS.

#6  Norms have been ignored or spat on by these people for generations; I don't think they should benefit from an overweening desire to preserve them.

Make them follow their own rules.

#5  It seems this investigation is a mile wide and an inch deep.

#4  My though was since all of that involves democrats and their misbehavior it would be seen as partisan. Hope you are right TW but suspect partisans inside DOJ see it as a mechanism to hide their crimes past Nov 3 and beyond.

#2  No Clinton is running in this election, so I don’t see that the 60 day rule should be invoked in her case, NoMoreBS. Also, the Russia probe involved people and events aimed at the 2016 election and its aftermath, not President Trump, so that also ought not invoke the rule.

#1  We are well inside the DOJ 60 rule for embargoed news that might affect a political outcome in an election year. Barr would be right In upholding that as a nonpartisan precedent for the integrity of an honest DOJ. What isn’t right has been the stalling and obfuscation to get to that marker so as to bury the massive, obvious criminal behavior of the tentacles of the previous administration and the democrat progressive march. Given the existential nature of that, perhaps he should consider an exception to such a well intentioned idea!
