Jerry Nadler absolutely deconstructs the Durham report in epic fashion. Just an absolute ass whipping of historical proportion. Or read the summary article on CNN or your favorite news site. I'd simply watch: 6:48 to 18:00 Opening statement by Jerry (devastating) and 33:20 to 39:40 Jerry questions Durham (devastating) and 1:19:09 to 1:20:20 Mr Johnson (GA): "You didnt indict Former FBI Dir Jim Comey or John Brenner and you didnt indict Hillary Clinton, Barrack Obama, you didnt indict Joe Biden.. heck, you couldnt even indict Hunter Biden." and 1:28:00 to 1:34:20 Schiff gets Durham to agree Russia Russia Russia was not a hoax and flounders around the Trump tower meeting. Also gets hime to call Mueller a patriot and hero. Ends with a zinger. 3:09-3:10 Schiff stumps Durham 3:27-3:30 Schiff destroys Durhams assessment his statements were in line with Muller report… destroys. 3:36-3:37 crazy Ukrainian woman from Indiana WTF? 5:21-5:23 Matt Gaetz is whacko It just gets more brutal the more you watch. Special counsel John Durham defends his investigation and former Attorney General Bill Barr | CNN Politics Despite repeated claims from Trump and Republicans that the Biden administration has “weaponized” the Justice Department, Durham said there wasn’t any political interference with his work. He testified that Attorney General Merrick Garland, a Biden appointee, didn’t block any of his moves, didn’t reach out to discuss the probe, and didn’t meddle with the investigation. “Mr. Durham constructed a flimsy story built on shaky inferences and dog whistles to far-right conspiracy theorists,” Rep. Jerry Nadler, a Democrat from New York, said. “By prolonging his investigation. Durham was able to keep Donald Trump’s talking points in the news, long after Trump left office.” In addition to rejecting Trump’s insults against Barr, Durham said there was “substantial evidence” that the Russian government interfered in the 2016 election. (Trump accepted Russian President Vladimir Putin’s denials.) He also said special counsel Robert Mueller was a “patriot” whom he had the “highest regard” for. (Trump has called Mueller a “national disgrace.”) After four years, Durham only secured one conviction against a low-level FBI lawyer for doctoring one email related to the surveillance of an ex-Trump campaign aide. Durham’s jury trials against a Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer and Trump-Russia dossier source both ended with embarrassing acquittals last year.
After listening to Durham I wouldn’t trust him to assemble a swing set. He was totally outclassed by nearly ever questioner. The republicans as expected offered nothing but faux outrage.
A more balanced take https://thehill.com/homenews/house/...o-hear-during-rare-durham-public-hearing/amp/
Thanks for giving the ranges of informative portions of the grilling. Wow . . . and to think about all the people suggesting the 2020 election was stolen. It's almost as if the GOP agenda has been full of lies and B.S. for the last several years. At least they are doing great things for education.
Demolished? Did you watch a different hearing than the rest of us? Maybe in a 3rd grade playground is name calling synonymous with demolishing…but in Congress? Nah, we just call that weak. If you can’t take off your partisan glasses for a moment and see the real evil these two political parties are doing which is destroying this Country….well bud, I guess we all need to learn Chinese.
As much as I dislike Shift and Swallow, Everyone seemed to be able to spank Durham the savior. Except possibly Jordan and his minions
Demolished. 4 years and $6.5M and lost every case he took to court The DOJ has a 95% win rate and Durham’s sham charges ended up winning zero times Durham on record said the FBI should have investigated the Trump case Durham found zero political interference and admitted as much Durham admits Russia interfered, Trump asked for help, Trump campaign shared data with Russia, Jared and the trumps shouldn’t have taken meeting with Russians Durham agrees with republican that Muller report doesnt support public statements Schiff made of Trump asking for help, sharing data, and accepting help then Schiff goes through each one and gets Durham to admit it actually did The whole argument by Durham was simply the case was opened too fast.. not that it was actually opened and noted that it was a successful prosecution that lost zero time It was an absolute blood bath. You’d have to be in fantasy land to have any other opinion.
Exactly, that was the point I was trying to make by posting the Jordan video. You can always find a youtube video that that tells one side of the story.
This is jaw dropping and tells you about his epistemology. He really limited his knowledge to the Right Wing ecosystem and was therefore blindsided by reality when tested When Adam Schiff asked Durham if the Russians released stolen information through cutouts, he replied, “I’m not sure.” Schiff responded, “The answer is yes,” to which Durham reported, “In your mind, it’s yes.” When Schiff asked Durham if he knew that, hours after Trump publicly asked Russia to find Hillary Clinton’s State Department emails and release them, Russian hackers made an attempt to hack Clinton emails, Durham replied, “If that happened, I’m not aware of that.” When asked if Trump referred to those stolen emails more than 100 times on the campaign trail, Durham answered, “I don’t really read the newspapers and listen to the news.” And when Schiff asked Durham if he was aware that Trump’s campaign manager, Paul Manafort, passed on polling data to Konstantin Kilimnik, a Russian intelligence agent, at the time Russia was conducting both a social-media campaign and the release of stolen documents to help Trump, Durham replied, “You may be getting beyond the depth of my knowledge.”
No, nothing you posted says demolished to me. Nothing. You have a perspective…good for you. Others don’t share that. Meanwhile, you are posting poo about cheering on the weaponization of law enforcement. Couple that with the politicalization of the judiciary and the polarization of the electorate and you have the recipe for a shitty Christmas, New Year and St. Paddy’s Day…and beyond. Perhaps think bigger picture before posting gleeful poo about the approaching demise of our country.
I’m starting to feel a bit sorry for Durham. Bet he wanted this hearing less than anyone. And Schiff shows again that, whether you love him or hate him, he is a very good lawyer
Durham was obliterated. The truth is the big picture. Over the course of his nearly two-year-long probe, special counsel Robert Mueller and his team of prosecutors indicted 34 individuals and three Russian businesses on charges ranging from computer hacking to conspiracy and financial crimes. Those indictments led to 7 guilty pleas and 5 people in prison. Durham investigated that investigation and had one low level agent plea guilty to altering one email. Nothing else. No Clinton charges, no Mueller charges, no Stroyk charges, no Obama charges, no Joe Biden charges nor any charges to anyone in their circles. The two cases he brought were laughed out of court with not guilty verdicts in speed record short deliberations. Durham demonstrated his hack partisan investigation with a laughably outrageous attempt to allude to finding something when the courts said he didn’t and his report didn’t have in it. Matt Gaetz even said he found nothing cuz even he’s not that dumb to believe Durham found something. The reason your response is so over the top general is that you lack material facts supporting anything remotely demonstrating illegal activity from the Mueller investigation whom Durham calls an American hero and patriot.
Oh, yeah, you’re right, I forgot about the Mueller convictions of the Russia-Gate, which had absolutely nothing to do with Trump, his campaign or anything with the election…but instead simple process charges for a few Americans. How many Russian convictions in absentia? (I think 100%). Great devastating victory? Nah, just more election interference. Meanwhile, you continue to be a partisan hack, who is more concerned about winning meaningless, non-victories for the left, than condemning all this crap which is destroying our Country. Hurray! Good for you! 你會成為一個優秀的中國奴隸
