SNIP According to a Thursday report from The New York Times, Barr and Durham received a tip from Italian authorities that resulted in the Justice Department quietly opening a criminal inquiry into Trump himself. As special counsel, Durham reportedly pressed Italian officials to share any role they may have had in igniting the FBI’s investigation. In response, Italy “unexpectedly offered a potentially explosive tip linking Mr. Trump to certain suspected financial crimes,” the Times reported. Barr and Durham, who had become good drinking buddies by this point, decided the tip was both credible and serious. The attorney general then asked Durham to open a criminal investigation that included examining Trump’s possible wrongdoing. The nature of the Italian tip is unclear, but no charges were ever brought by Durham in relation to it. ENDSNIP https://www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-russia-probe-led-to-criminal-investigation-on-trump-himself-nyt Really?? Durham spent months going after criminal mastermind Kevin Clinesmith, but when another foreign country gave us a credible and serious tip, it was just covered up? I vaguely remember there being gleeful MAGA threads opened that the Durham investigation had turned into a criminal investigation. Who knew it was on the bossman?? LMAO I suppose at some point, that coverup needs to end and the credible and serious tip needs to come to light.... Still so much we don't know about the greatest American criminal since Bernie Madoff...
Somehow, against all odds and logic, I believe John Durham is still assigned to this project since we have never seen his final report of disgrace... How long does it take to write "We didn't find much of anything"?? I love this line - "The probe of the hoax was a hoax of a probe, but then the Italians raised some questions" https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/a42679558/john-durham-italians-donald-trump/ But, to your point, I imagine any documents around this Italian tip will end up down at Mar-A-Lago before anybody catches on...
Let me summarize: It is now known that it was a witch hunt so they want to justify it by saying it "lead to other things".
Did you even read the garbage link you posted. “No names, no places, no times, no specifics”. Simply a “tip” at the men’s urinal. You probably wrote more words here than the ”tip” generated before it was discarded as one more approval seeker looking for a book deal.
If true, it would as poetic as it can get. !!!!! Personally, it would give me great pleasure to be able to remind them of all their comments.
Yeah, I didn't have the time to search back far enough to find one of them yesterday... may give it a shot today.... Look for a necro thread on the Durham investigation shortly... Could contain some gems...
Trump allegedly committed financial crimes? Not surprised, but I would think that take both money and at least a modicum of intelligence, two things Trump does not appear to have.
The Daily Beast(appropriately named) is the Newsmax of the Left. Totally discredited and a rag of a newsletter.
The bigger question is why was the investigation into Trump and Italians buried? What were the results of that investigation?
I only used the Daily Beast site (and way to contradict them, BTW) because the original reporting was from the NYT, and they are normally paywalled.... I'm still trying to figure out why this thread was moved to PO&B.... I followed my normal Current Events formatting, including posting a question for debate, and this most certainly is a Current Event. Anybody care to guess? I'm stumped...
Please provide a credible link.... NYT is not a credible link DB is a fake news site Dan Bongino has written about this extensively... wrote a book... its free. Spygate... he worked for the FBI and SS... fully downloadable in pdf or text.... fully footnoted with his sources... https://archive.org/details/spygate...Trump (2018)-Dan Bongino and D.C. McAllister/ https://archive.org/download/spygat...d J. Trump (2018)-Dan Bongino. McAllister.pdf The story being dug back up again... Our own government through the 5 eyes countries pulled a spy sting on a man named Papadopoulus... He was set up twice in little spy games.... once with $10k and an FBI search in the airport... on the thinnest of pretexts they start their investigation from an alleged statement from Papadopoulus. GEORGE PAPADOPOULOS Joseph Mifsud Alexander Downer the whole bunch
NYT is the gold standard of news links.... sad they are generally paywalled. I can find a dozen sites republishing the gist of the NYT article. What I can't find is anybody disputing it or finding it remotely shocking the hand-picked Special Counsel investigation's biggest find was that T**** required a criminal investigation. https://www.newsweek.com/john-durha...e-details-donald-trump-criminal-probe-1777269 https://news.yahoo.com/john-durhams-secret-criminal-investigation-063717040.html I'm positive we haven't heard the last of this story, although I'm equally positive you couldn't give a crap...
He's just as scummy when he operates in Europe as he is when he operates in the US.... BTW, I just "reopened" this thread in Current Events, with a different title and OP, since this IS a Current Event that needs to be discussed in Current Events.. Please keep that one rolling...
NYT is not a credible link DB is a fake news site... "I can find a dozen sites republishing the gist of the NYT article." ... Yea... it is called circle jerk reporting.... those dozen refer back to the same NYT article.. no one does the work to verify anything anymore.. They just regurgitate what NYT says.. from your own links...
Liberal thinking 101.... keep telling the same lie over and over.... link to the same lie over and over... and ONLY the liberal will think it's true...
