Democrats are slicing up the Durham Report into small pieces...

[kentuck]

In the hearing that is presently going on that is on several news channels, the Republicans seem to be getting what they wished for?

It is being exposed as a big old "Nothing Burger".

They got him to admit that he did not investigate any of the facts about the meeting of the Trumps with the Russians at Trump Tower or Paul Manafort's giving campaign info to a Russian spy.

He seemed to have dismissed all the information that the Mueller team had gathered and was only investigating any negative information about Donald Trump and the Russians.

The Republicans will be happy when the hearing is over.

1. Just more caca from the know nothings.

2. Too bad Jim Jordan doesn't realize how much of a shit sandwich he's presenting. 2nd thought: ...

It's great Jim Jordan doesn't realize what a shit sandwich he's presenting.

16. Or he DOES realize what a shit sandwich he's presenting

and he's pretty sure that the loony base is buying it.

[marble falls]

18. Each time they count on this they cut away more GOPers wising up. He's not a smart man.

[PatSeg]

23. That's for sure

No one ever accused him of being brainy.

[LiberalFighter]

17. Yes!

3. seems this hearing looks bad for Trump and GOP

who set up this ridiculous "investigate the investigators" nonsense.

Huge win for Dems

4. emptywheel is also doing a fine job

(and has been for weeks) of slicing and dicing the Durham investigation/report. Talk about a diversion (perversion?) of investigation and justice! This was rank! And will probably end up with few professionals willing to stand behind it.

7. Yes, I follow Marcie and she did a bang up job during both trials (which Durham lost BTW)

She is doing a great job on the hearing now.

8. Is Dan Goldman on the Committee? He would know where Durham's soft underbelly is and know how to

attack it.

Pelosi still controls the House. I hope that isn’t news to you.

14. This is a great article

15. I like it

He made a good living off of it for several years.
Said what the repub's wanted. All the facts, well not quite.

[Bev54]

19. I find there is too much repetition from the dems asking the same questions.

I wish they would have read Empty Wheel yesterday, she has all the lies told by Durham in his report compared to the facts shown in transcripts from witnesses and the court cases.

They need to totally destroy him on every part of his phony report.

[Duppers]

24. + 100

[Johonny]

21. Durhams time would have been better spent

Investigating the 10 counts of obstruction of Justice Trup committed, and Bill Barrs inaction on those counts.
