Special Counsel John Durham’s long-awaited report reveals a stunning failure within the Department of Justice and FBI during the Trump-Russia investigation. Fox News Digital obtained the 300-page report, confirming a lack of analytical rigor and a disturbing reliance on politically-affiliated sources in the FBI’s “Crossfire Hurricane” probe. Former Director James Comey and Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, among others, are responsible for this breach of duty.

The report highlights the undue influence of Trump’s political opponents, including Hillary Clinton, in initiating and sustaining the investigation. Despite the acquittal, it underscores the truth that the Clinton campaign plotted to falsely tie Trump to Russia, with the media supporting their narrative of an “illegitimate president.” The FBI’s response on Twitter claimed they implemented corrective actions, but it falls short of addressing the magnitude of the government agencies’ attempt to undermine the people’s choice of President.

“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. 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.”

However, the FBI’s response left many unsatisfied, and for good reason. It is deeply concerning that government agencies, while in power, sought to undermine the American people’s choice for President of the United States by conducting a sham investigation.

Fox News reports:

FIRST ON FOX: Special Counsel John Durham found that the Department of Justice and FBI “failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law” when it launched the Trump-Russia investigation.

“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,” the report said.

Durham said his investigation also revealed that “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,” the report said. “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.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller completed his investigation into a possible Trump-Russia connection in April 2019, which yielded no evidence of criminal conspiracy or coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia to influence the 2016 election.

The report said Clinesmith “committed a criminal offense by fabricating language in an email that was material to the FBI obtaining a FISA surveillance order.”

Special Counsel John Durham’s report has brought to light the shocking failures and biases within the Department of Justice and FBI during the Trump-Russia investigation. Their attempt to brush off criticism with promises of improvement did little to appease the public, who saw it as a feeble excuse for their actions during President Trump’s tenure. The report confirms a disturbing lack of analytical rigor and an alarming reliance on politically-affiliated sources. It exposes the undue influence of Trump’s adversaries in initiating and sustaining the investigation, revealing the Clinton campaign’s plot to falsely link Trump to Russia. This revelation should lead more people to consider Trump’s claims of being the victim of an ongoing witch hunt, as government insiders, media, and now the FBI itself seem to be against him.

Reacting to the report on Truth Social, President Trump didn’t mince his words, stating:

“THEY ARE SCUM, LIKE COCKROACHES ALL OVER WASHINGTON, D.C. Congratulations to John Durham on a Report that is being praised for its quality, importance, and professionalism, by friend and foe alike!”
