On Tuesday night, President Trump announced that U.S. Attorney John Durham had uncovered “breathtaking” evidence about the “corrupt” Russia hoax. That might just have been Trump puffing, except for the fact that the Trump campaign also released a new video hinting that the Democrats, from Obama on down, are going to be in trouble. (snip) Keep in mind that Donald Trump ran a hugely successful reality show. He understands the importance of a narrative arc for any successful broadcast.
If Durham’s report had broken six months ago, it would have been old news by the summer. Worse, the media would have explained away almost everything and deep-sixed what it couldn’t explain.

Imagine the MSM with their knickers in a bind so tight that the blood flow is so restricted that gangrene is possible. That will happen if the entire Obama group (including Biden) were indicted for their roles in the Politburo style spying on the 2016 Presidential campaign. And the cherry on top would include indictments of individuals from the MSM for their complicit behavior in the coverup. One can only dream that Durham delivers the goods just before the first debate in October.

The increasing use of “report” rather than “indictments” appears to indicate that Durham will not bring criminal charges against anyone involved in the coup. What’s most irritating is that most if not all of the coup participants took an oath of office to protect the Constitution. No where in their oaths did it state that the Constitution and our laws could be set aside in order to elect Hillary and, if unsuccessful, remove President Trump because he defeated her,
Corrupt Hillary and Lock Her Up turned out to be simply campaign slogans. Will Durham’s report be just another slogan without substance.

I say get the information out there ASAP. The most important thing is that these people be held accountable for their attempted coup.

Mixed emotions about this article. On one hand, I want it so badly to be true, but on the other hand, a little voice is telling me, don’t get your hopes up. Unfortunately, after everything that has happened these past three plus years, I can’t imagine that justice will finally catch up with these corruptocrats. I see the lawlessness in the streets while elected officials do nothing to stop the destruction. The Judge in the Flynn trial making bizarre decisions that garner very few rebukes by the legal community even though the legally uneducated can see that he is overstepping his bounds. We are under economic attack by governors who want to lock down the country again. We appear to be on the cusp of the apocalypse and Americans are frightened by the speed at which our rights have been stripped away. Churches are under attack for having services while casinos and Planned Parenthood continue to do business. We are jumping through irrational hops for a virus that is 98% non-lethal. My head tells me it may be too late, but my heart tells me it’s not. The scary truth is that depending upon how this investigation moves forward we will know if we have lost the country or not. I have never seen this much chaos and mayhem in my life and never believed in my wildest imaginings that this would be my reality. It feels like the gates of hell have been flung open wide and evil is present everywhere. God help us.

Obama the fraud weaponized the govt.
Against its good decent people
All because he’s a Marxist clown-boy
The most criminal president ever
Now it’s time to take him down
And every Marxist clown who aided him
Send them all to their deserved retribution
Truth..Justice..The American way!

By delaying this report, they've given the media fodder for "Election interference."

Sorry but we're almost through season four of Obamagate and thanks to the DOJ and GOP and their courageous falling down, rolling over and soiling themselves led by Graham and McConnell, it keeps jumping the shark on EVERY. SINGLE. EPISODE.

I agree with #6! I too want to see this travesty come to public view, but because it's been delayed over and over, I wonder if Durham will reveal what he has found before the election. We all know his findings will blow the Election wide open. Maybe Durham doesn't want to be the person responsible for doing that! On the other hand, maybe he could be the person who saves this country from being in the hands of Liberals. I'm hoping he will choose to be the Latter!

If it wasn't for the fact that President Trump said it, I would have normally concluded there is nothing to see here and that Obie's Spygate scandal will be slow-walked past the election and swept under the rug thus ending rule of law here as we once knew it.
In the game of poker, all you need to do is make your opponents think you hold the high cards even if you don't actually hold the high cards. Conversely, if you hold the high cards, you convey the body language that you don't hold the high cards. The art of the deal.

I'm with the author on this. In politics, as with business or most anything, timing is everything. Prosecuting these senior governmental officials is, sadly, not as easy as prosecuting the rest of us. They have, essentially, unlimited funds for defense. They have the msm going to bat for them. They have a whole cast of liars to muddy the waters. They have a legal system to drag thing out almost indefinitely- look at General Flynn!
The evidence must be fully documented, with records, interviews, statements, videos and the rest, and all perfectly assembled into a package that is indisputable.
Patience is a virtue. If nothing has materialized by the time President Trump leaves office in 2025, then I will conclude that I was totally deceived.

I hope that Barr and John Durham indict Lenin commie, muslim, John Brennan and James Clapper for treason against the American Republic.
They are Obama Democrats who deserve to go to jail.

It may be enough for the public to learn what most sentient beings already know: the administration of the august Fauxbama was rotten to its core and when the smell of the rot issues forth it issues forth from the head. The functionaries, evil servants and spear carriers standing around him will be tainted. That means you, yes, you, the one cowering in the basement. A new eye job and new hair plugs and a set of handlers doing their weekend at Bernie's thing will not be enough to help you.

I want to thank #14 for his comments. I am remaining positive that justice will be levied upon these traitors. While I would have liked this to happen "yesterday" I will be patient. The wheels of justice grind slowly. The President and the patriots who are working with him have to get this process absolutely right because they will have one chance to get it done for us.
I believe a good indication of this is how insane the left has become; insanity due to fright. They know what's headed their way and they are throwing everything at the President and us in order to stop or stall the inevitable. They will fail.

It will never happen because corrupt, "I love it here" Washington POLs and all their minions don't want to set a precedent to which they might be subjected.

Keep in mind, the democrats, led by bull Schiff and Nadler, have been using their public offices to cover-up exculpatory testimony, which was only recently been un-sealed (there was no reason for the obstruction) and made available to everyone.
It showed that the House Intelligence Committee hearings uncovered 57 transcripts of nearly every major player in this Russian scheme, and NONE of them had any evidence or were able to conclude that there was ANY Russian collusion with the Trump campaign.
And, somehow, bull Schiff tried to blame the WH on the year-long delay of the released transcripts.
Even PBS.org has the complete list of all of the transcripts.
Yet, despite all of the evidence these individuals still used government offices, personnel, and equipment to prevent a peaceful transition of power, and to obstruct the Office of the President and his Executive Branch over the last 3+ years.
Many are likely hoping to run-out-the-clock and have a new administration who will gleefully end all investigations and cover it all up.

Everything about the Russia collusion probe hinges on the Russians having hacked the Hillary emails from the DNC servers. That is the whole justification for the probe. If Hillary's email release was an inside job (Seth Rich) then the entire justification for everything done by the FBI and DoJ blows up and it clearly becomes sedition if not outright treason.
Keep these dates in mind:
March 12, 2016 George Papadopoulos first contacted by Joseph Mifsud shortly after being named a policy advisor to the Trump campaign.
April 26, 2016 Mifsud tells Papadopoulos that the Russians have “dirt” on Hillary in the form of emails at a meeting in London.
Late April - WaPo says DNC was tipped late April that their servers were hacked and that they contacted Perkins Coie attorney who put them in touch with CrowdStrike who began work within 24 hours. Claim 2 Russian groups broke in and one targeted emails and the other opposition research.
May 10, 2016 Papadopoulos talks to Australian ambassador and Clinton Foundation donor Alexander Downer who later reports to US authorities that P knew in advance of the Wikileaks release that the Russians had Hillary’s emails.
July 10, 2016 Seth Rich murdered.
July 22, 2016 WikiLeaks releases 20K DNC emails.
July 31, 2016 Crossfirw Hurricane investigation officially opened by Peter Strzok. It was a FOREIGN AGENTS REGISTRATION ACT –
RUSSIA investigation

I suspect something will happen before the election. AG Barr took this gig, I believe, because his contacts, the honest people in the DOJ and FBI told him just how corrupt those agencies had become during the Obama years. He could see and understood that a coup d'etat was taking place in this country. So he signed on to be Trump's AG (not because he's a Trump guy) but because he knew someone had to bring justice back to the US system. He knows full well that if the level of rot that exists from the Obama regime isn't adjudicated and exposed and Trump loses the election (which he can) the cancer that Obama wrought will explode in the next Democrat administration. Our country will be on the fast track to becoming a third world country, dominated by a corrupt, out of control band of law enforcers that will make Lois Lerner's antics at the IRS look like child's play. And because Lerner and her cohorts and the Obama administration were never held to account for their corruption (thank you Republicans) that gave them all license to think they could get away with a coup. And if Barr doesn't bring them to justice and soon, they WILL get away with this and this corrupt monster will be unstoppable.

If indictments are in fact handed down, I fear that it will be difficult to convict the treasonous swampers if the trials are held in DC.
