Even the origins of the FBI investigation, ‘Crossfire Hurricane” exposed how shallow, childish, and self-centered the actors in the ‘top law enforcement agency for the United States really are at their core.
Likely their choice for naming their corrupt and insane operation, a reference to a Rolling Stones song about growing up under the mania of Nazi assault in London, was in response to President Donald J. Trump’s campaign song, “You Can’t Always Get What You Want.”
Trump played the Stones’ tune at his rallies, which was used as a reference to an out-of-control ‘Deep State’ or secret government that was not working with the consent of the American people.
“Crossfire Hurricane was the code name for the counterintelligence investigation undertaken by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) from July 31, 2016, to May 17, 2017, into myriad links between Trump associates and Russian officials and spies and “whether individuals associated with [Trump’s] presidential campaign,” according to the documentation on the FBI’s corrupt actions toward Trump and his associates.
On Monday, Special Counsel John Durham finally filed his last report on his investigation into the FBI’s actions in the Crossfire Hurricane, which was a humiliation for the FBI, even though, as expected, Durham did his best to protect the status quo of the corrupt actors in DC and said there should be no punishment for the outrageous abuse of the American people.
In the end, all Durham did the past seven years prove that Trump was right to expose them all for their massive corruption, and he seemed to walk away with a shrug of his shoulders.
But the FBI’s reputation is destroyed, and they even admit that much is true.
“The FBI was forced to make a big admission after Special Counsel John Durham released the findings on the years-long investigation into former President Donald Trump and alleged Russian collusion,” Martin Walsh reported for Conservative Brief.
“Durham found the FBI used “uncorroborated intelligence” when it launched its investigation into Trump before the 2016 presidential election and that agents failed repeatedly to maintain “strict fidelity to the law” throughout the probe,” Walsh reported.
Soon after the report was made available to the public, the FBI responded by acknowledging there were several errors made in 2016. The bureau also conceded that the findings in Durham’s report are accurate.
“The conduct in 2016 and 2017 that Special Counsel Durham examined was the reason that current FBI leadership already implemented dozens of corrective actions, which have now been in place for some time. Had those reforms been in place in 2016, the missteps identified in the report could have been prevented,” the FBI admitted in its statement.
“This report reinforces the importance of ensuring the FBI continues to do its work with the rigor, objectivity, and professionalism the American people deserve and rightly expect,” it added.
The Daily Caller noted crucial findings in the report about Hillary Clinton:
The report noted that the FBI received intelligence that Hillary Clinton’s campaign approved “a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by Russian security services,” specifically one that involved “tying him to Putin and the Russians’ hacking of the Democratic National Committee” to distract the public from her email scandals.
It notes that President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and FBI Director James Comey were personally briefed on Clinton’s scheme, known as the “Clinton Plan” in the report, by CIA Director John Brennan, who recorded mentioning the plan in his handwritten notes.
The “Clinton Plan” was obtained by the FBI while it was relying on the “Steele Dossier,” a discredited report of lurid allegations of Trump’s personal sexual activity, which the FBI knew was being funded and promoted by the Clinton campaign, according to the report. Durham quotes information from a meeting between the Dossier’s author, former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele, and FBI agents, as well as texts between FBI officials, to demonstrate that the agents knew the evidence was connected to Clinton.
Durham’s report also found that the FBI and U.S. Department of Justice wasted little time investigating Trump and that there was a “notable departure” from how it resisted efforts to investigate claims against Clinton’s campaign.
The FBI briefed Clinton staffers on information of possible threats aimed at the Clinton campaign but ignored intelligence it received from “a trusted foreign source pointing to a Clinton campaign plan to vilify Trump by tying him to Vladimir Putin so as to divert attention from her own concerns relating to her use of a private email server.”
Durham’s report also found that “neither U.S. nor the Intelligence Community appears to have possessed any actual evidence of collusion in their holdings at the commencement” of the investigation.
“Our investigation determined that the Crossfire Hurricane investigators did not and could not corroborate any of the substantive allegations contained in the Steele reporting,” the report found.
“Based on the review of Crossfire Hurricane and related intelligence activities, we conclude that the Department and the FBI failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law in connection with certain events and activities described in this report,” Durham said in the report.
Durham stated that the investigation showed “senior FBI personnel displayed a serious lack of analytical rigor towards the information that they received, especially information received from politically-affiliated persons and entities. This information in part triggered and sustained Crossfire Hurricane and contributed to the subsequent need for Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation. In particular, there was significant reliance on investigative leads provided or funded (directly or indirectly) by Trump’s political opponents.”
“The Department did not adequately examine or question these materials and the motivations of those providing them, even when at about the same time the Director of the FBI and others learned of significant and potentially contrary intelligence,” the report said.
It is unclear what reforms will ever happen at the FBI because of the report. DC acts like sociopath-wounded children whenever the American people try to reign them in, and they don’t ever seem to be able to apply any self-restraint to their power grabs.
And the report was what people expected, a nod by Durham to continue to act like spoiled brats.
THE Wise American People……….. KNEW…
The sane non Democrats knew all along that this was a crime against the peoiple they are supposed to serve.We still have the same criminals in the WH and all the agencies.A deep cleaning must be performed in the Deep state.
Trading on the “Integrity” of the Weaponized Justice Department, The Report “does not recommend any wholesale changes in the guidelines and policies that the Department and the FBI now have in place to ensure proper conduct and accountability in how counterintelligence activities [and reporting] are carried out.”
Significantly more weaponized than J. E. Hoover’s Department.
Hillary still walking free and using her unamerican mouth to take down President Trump and America. FBI and DOJ are still going after President Trump and the American people. Biden is still in office and destroying America. No arrests. Alot of money wasted because Hillary is not being held accountable for her crimes!
The FBI must admit that in 2016 a crime was committed against our President and treason of our country. Every offender must be severely punished.
When are the anti-Trump idiots going to wake up and realize they were and are being played like a puppet on a string by the democRATS and the far left with all their conspiracy claims against Trump? Time after time it has been proven that Trump was right and yet they keep attacking him with their lies and bogus “evidence” of wrongdoing! Time to hold all the corrupt individuals accountable!
