Durham report: FBI defenders misrepresent 2019 watchdog findings in attempt to discredit special counsel

English
| Russia Investigation
The article discusses the contrasting findings of the 2019 inspector general report by Michael Horowitz and the recent Durham report on the FBI's conduct during the Russia investigation. While Horowitz's report was critical of the FBI and led to procedural changes, it did not find conclusive evidence of political bias. In contrast, Durham's report, which had access to more evidence and witnesses, suggests that the FBI acted improperly and with potential bias. The article highlights the differing interpretations of these reports by various stakeholders, including Andrew McCabe and Andrew Weissmann, and underscores the extensive investigative efforts undertaken by Durham.

The article critically examines the firing of former FBI director James Comey, highlighting inconsistencies and hypocrisies in both liberal and conservative reactions. It discusses the liberal shift from condemning Comey to defending him, and questions the Trump administration's rationale for the dismissal. The piece also explores the potential implications of the firing on the Russia investigation and suggests that Trump's actions may be driven by personal grievances and miscalculations.

Exclusive: Special Counsel has questioned several officials about Donald Trump's handling of Russia probe papers

English
| Russia Investigation
On his last day in office, Donald Trump directed the declassification of thousands of pages related to the FBI's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. However, his efforts were thwarted, leading to frustration. Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigation is now focusing on whether this frustration motivated Trump to take classified documents to Mar-A-Lago, potentially violating federal law. Key figures like Mark Meadows and Kash Patel are central to the investigation, with Meadows potentially being a crucial cooperator. The investigation also examines whether Trump obstructed justice by lying about the documents. The FBI's concerns about compromising informants and violating the Privacy Act delayed the release of these documents, which Trump and his allies claimed would expose significant misconduct by U.S. intelligence agencies.
