    But the Durham report doesn't actually prove anything does it? Throughout the Mueller investigation, and after it, Trump supporters continually called the entire investigation biased, a claim that could certainly be made about this investigation, and then when the report was produced brushed it off as nobody was actually indicted directly from it.

    Isn't that exactly the same in this report? So why is this report being given more credibility than Mueller?

    The simple and inescapable fact is that; this was the investigation into the items raised in the report. The report is the findings of those investigations, and Durham found nothing to warrant further investigations or charges. Some procedural changes in the FBI to prevent same happening again.

    Durham's report is based on the four-year investigation into all the claims raised about the Steele Dossier, Clinton campaign, FBI etc. And there was nothing found in the investigation which is likely to lead to further charges (I think one FBI agent was found guilty of manipulating/changing language in some intel or something like that).

    There's no point taking snippets from the Durham Report to try and act like there should be an investigation or charges brought. The report is the result of those very investigations. The investigations have already happened. That's what the report is.

    How do we know? Because when you're presented with contradicting facts or points within that dump you obfuscate and distract rather than discuss those points. It's as if you don't read beyond the headlines nor understand what you're posting

    Trump - we must investigate the investigators

    Durham - yeah, no laws broken.

    GOP - let's invent laws!

    The Russian collusion accusations hyperinflated by the fbi, which fulled the first impeachment and was peddled incessantly by leftwing media was all a corordianated effort to oust Trump from office. That's called seditious conspiracy. Ray Charles can see the democrats are above the law and will never be held accountable. You either see that reality or you don't. And if you do you're either honest about it or your not.

    Where's the proof? Durham had years to prove these allegations and came up with even less than Trump's Healthcare Plan.

    Trump calls so many things "HOAX!!!" that even his supporters can't keep them all straight.

    The 1st Indictment was about his attempts to extort Ukraine in order to discredit Joe Biden, absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the categorically proven Russian Interference in the 2016 Elections.

    The ONLY people convicted of seditious conspiracy in the US in the last several hundred years are Trump supporters for their actions surrounding January 6th.

    If the Democrats are guilty of all these things, why can't the GOP ever manage to find actual evidence of wrong-doing that could lead to convictions?

    Is it that the Democrats are so fantastically brilliant that they just can't be caught, but obviously not quite brilliant enough to win the 2016 Election or to keep the House in 2020??

    Or , are the GOP just so cripplingly incompetent that despite all the resources at their disposal that cannot manage to find a shred of evidence?

    OR - Maybe , now just hear me out here....

    There is no evidence because none of the things the GOP claim actually happened??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,020 ✭✭✭✭duploelabs


    The Durham report was an investigation instigated by trump to hold the Democrats accountable (as you want), unfortunately (for your storyline) no one was found criminally liable. So dry your tears



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,236 ✭✭✭mcmoustache


    Why would the head of the FBI publicly single out Clinton about her emails just before the election if they were in cahoots? Your post makes no sense when reality is taken into account.

    Repeating the silly conspiracy theory just makes it look more absurd.

    Whether we see it or not doesn't matter. It was investigated, by a Trump appointee, on Trump's orders, for four years.

    The special counsel, John Durham, didn't see "that reality". Yes, he determined the FBI were too quick to jump to a full investigation, and some of the basis of that decision was overplayed. But seditious conspiracy or a co-ordinated effort to oust Trump from office? That's not the reality that Durham's investigation found. It also doesn't negate the findings of Mueller's investigation or the numerous actual charges which did come from it either.

    Another one of Trumps attorneys in the classified docs case in the spotlight, this time for abruptly exiting the case over “personal differences” following his clients own abject inability to shut the **** up about ongoing litigation ie. Take his professional advice. This comes after the town hall where Trump mouthed off about the case and gave prosecutors more to work with.

    Maybe it's something in the Florida Air/Water as DeSantis can't seem to stop incriminating himself in the Disney lawsuit as well.

    Gave another Interview in recent days and again explicitly says "We decided to go after Disney when they spoke up about the "Don't say gay" legislation."

    "We" being the Florida legislature which makes it a slam dunk 1st Amendment win for Disney.

    What alternative reality is this from

    What does "contrary to the authority thereof" mean to you? FBI, Congress, they have legal authorities.

    Nick Fuentes after being platformed by Trump:

    “Here I am, like, hey listen, guys. You turn 21, you find yourself a 16-year-old bride, you go crazy. You go crazy: no condoms, no snips, no abortions, no pills, no none of that. That’s the most pro-sex position there is,” Fuentes said on his podcast.

    “Anyway, so that’s, anyway, so that’s where I’m at with that.”

    After an awkward six-second pause, Fuentes continued.

    “And, uh, yeah, I gotta find, I gotta find my 16-year-old wife. Probably when I turn 30 or something. Cause here’s the thing: I don’t wanna be like, let’s say I get married to an 18-year old now. Six year age difference. When I turn 40, she’s going to be 34. Ew.

    “But if I’m 30 and she’s 16 to 14 year age difference. When I’m 50 she’ll be 36. When I’m 40, she’ll be 26. And now we’re talking here, now we’re cooking with gas. Now you can see an alternative vision for how things can be. If only you knew how different things could be.”

    Fuentes then scrunched up his face and sounded truly disgusted.

    “You wouldn’t have to settle for these women who are all busted up, and you gotta settle, and they have a tattoo and like, ‘This is how I am. You just can’t handle all this?’ And you’re like, ‘believe me. Believe me. Not in the way you think,'” he said.

    Fuentes continued mocking: “You have to deal with my tattoo. You have to deal with my long-term ex-boyfriend.”

    “I want a 16-year-old that’s untouched. Untouched, pristine. Untouched, uncorrupted, innocent,” Fuentes said. “That’s what we all want. And all 16-year-olds want a older guy, who’s like, capable and strong, and everything, to sweep her off her feet. That’s what everybody wants. That’s what everybody wants.”
