"LOL you have just committed the equivalent of firing a torpedo and then rushing over to sit on the ship you fired it at"
Not sure what you are on about here..... but it won't work....whether you believe it or not, which I know you don't....and without proof either way, I am merely stating that I agree 100% with Mike that Hilary was guilty of this, and that the FBI at the time were conveniently not very helpful at all, with determining just how much Hilary was involved in it..... it's very simple really... that is my opinion and I stand by it....nothing at all to do with jumping ships or sides, I have always maintained this stance and I have never stated otherwise.....so stop trying to spin what I said
"but is he speaking on behalf of the entire committee or just himself with that statement?"
Well the statement was released on the official senate judicial website, coming from the judicial chairman himself.... so if it was indeed said in his own personal capacity, I don't see how it would be posted on their official senate judicial website
"The very report your cited as finding the FBI had botched aspects of the Russia investigations found the investigation wasn't political motivated!"
What absolute rubbish man, I very clearly referred to the statement that came from the senate judicial committee, which I have quoted a bit, verbatim, below, including that statement referring directly to the Trump campaign.... you are spinning things again... I see you like to do this
It clearly accuses them of utilizing their powers of law enforcement for "Political Purposes", and that they turned a blind eye to every other potential explanation, except for the the Trump campaign...
It is clear as day....
Stav, stop spinning things dude,
“I consider the Crossfire Hurricane investigation a massive system failure by senior leadership
“I believe that Crossfire Hurricane was one of the most incompetent and corrupt investigations in the history of the FBI and DOJ.
“The FISA court was lied to. Exculpatory information was withheld on those being investigated. The investigators, with some notable exceptions, were incredibly biased and used the powers of law enforcement for political purposes.
“The leadership of the FBI under Comey and McCabe was either grossly incompetent or they knowingly allowed tremendous misdeeds. There was a blind eye turned toward any explanation other than the Trump campaign was colluding with foreign powers. At every turn the FBI and DOJ ran stop signs that were in abundance regarding exculpatory information.
“It is hard to believe that the senior officials at the FBI did not know that the Steele Dossier had been disavowed by the Russian subsource. It is equally hard to believe that the warnings from the CIA and other agencies about the reliability of Christopher Steele and the dossier were not known to senior leadership. It is my hope that the Durham report will hold those accountable for the travesty called Crossfire Hurricane
The investigation was pushed when it should have been stopped and the only logical explanation is that the investigators wanted an outcome because of their bias.
“Former FBI Director Comey and his deputy Mr. McCabe, through their incompetence and bias, have done a great disservice to the FBI and DOJ, and the senior DOJ leadership who signed off on the work product called the Crossfire Hurricane investigation have created a stain on the department’s reputation that can only be erased by true reform.
“I will be pursuing reforms of counterintelligence investigations and warrant applications, and hope that my Democratic and Republican colleagues can find common ground on these matters. I also hope and expect that FBI Director Wray will continue the reforms he has started. It is hard to believe that something like Crossfire Hurricane could have happened in America.
