Durham exposes corruption within FBI
Special Counsel John Durham called the FBI’s acts in the Crossfire Hurricane (Trump-Russia) probe “sobering” and said the actions displayed a “lack of fidelity.” But Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) said the probe exposed a “breathtakingly corrupt” FBI that is “subversive of the Constitution.”
Somebody might want to take Christopher Wray’s airplane away, halt those billions for a new FBI building, and get the FBI Director a new pair of underpants after this report.
In a series of tweets, Lee, a Constitutional scholar, said the Durham report laid bare the series of political decisions to get Trump instead of following its own rules.
Lee said that “the gravity of the misconduct uncovered by Mr. Durham cannot be overstated.”

“The LEAST one can say of it is that it involved a malicious use of federal law-enforcement officers to conduct a contrived investigation utterly lacking any valid, factual foundation from the very beginning. That is itself incredibly troubling—and also unconstitutional,” he wrote. But he said that the Durham Report indicated that the FBI corruption “was SO MUCH WORSE than that.” He stated that the ramifications of the Report showed “a powerful, long-respected, federal law-enforcement agency” using its power “to render a presidential candidate unelectable—entirely in the absence of any valid, good-faith basis for doing so.” [emphasis added]

And he said there’s no innocent explanation for why the once-premier law enforcement agency turned Stasi is corrupt to the core.
So make no mistake—this can’t be dismissed as mere carelessness or even a severe example of garden-variety misconduct. No—this is as corrupt and as subversive of the Constitution as it gets. [emphasis added]
It gets worse.
Indeed, the Durham Report said that the FBI and the “Intelligence Community” [CIA, NSA] never “possessed any actual evidence of collusion in their holdings at the commencement of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation.” Not only did they have no evidence to open the investigation, but they were also pressured to do so by none other than James Comey and Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe.
“In particular, at the direction of Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Deputy Assistant Director for Counterintelligence Peter Strzok opened Crossfire Hurricane immediately” without vetting the information, including the so-called Steele Dossier. And they never checked the information coming from the Hillary Clinton campaign to see if there was any truth to it. “The matter was opened as a full investigation without ever having spoken to the persons who provided the information. Further, the FBI did so without any significant review of its own intelligence databases.”

There is much more and it is worth reading in full. Taft also discusses the cases the FBI brought against Jan. 6 defendants.
What the FBI did in the Russia collusion hoax deserves more than just the firing of a few agents and administrators. They need to be an enforcement arm for the US and not just the DNC.

Consider the IRS whistleblower who recently came forward to claim the investigation of Hunter Biden's taxes has been corrupted by the same bias that was at play in investigations of alleged foreign interference targeting the Trump and Clinton campaigns in 2016. Despite being protected, the Justice Department ordered the IRS to axe the entire team investigating Hunter's alleged tax fraud, according to the whistleblower's lawyers.
How about federal agents' response to classified documents at Mar-a-Lago — which the feds always knew about and had verified were locked up — versus their reaction to learning of classified documents Biden had scattered around the eastern seaboard in locations accessed by Hunter Biden, foreign nationals, and maybe even Corn Pop for all we know.
What about the DOJ's displayed unwillingness to enforce federal laws protecting Supreme Court justices from intimidation and harassment while actively working to issue opinions on cases? The lack of interest in pursuing cases against those responsible for firebombing pro-life organizations? The general failure to prosecute Antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters who destroyed businesses, homes, and law enforcement outposts?

The FBI had evidence that Danchenko was a Russian spy, and Danchenko could provide no evidence that Trump was tied to Russia. It paid Danchenko anyway to try to mount a flimsy case against Trump, the Durham report found.
