The Justice Department’s inspector general has released his report on the FBI’s investigation of the 2016 Trump campaign, and the result is what we expected: The FBI launched its investigation into ties between the Trump campaign and Russia NOT for partisan reasons but because it had reason to investigate.
The inspector general’s report is harshly critical of the FBI’s handling of applications for a FISA wiretap on Trump campaign adviser Carter Page, however. But to be clear: There was no bias against Trump. It wasn’t a coup. There weren’t scummy “dirty cops.” The FBI didn't put undercover agents in the Trump campaign. There were no informants or spies. Trump wasn’t illegally “wire tapped” by President Obama.
Trump’s personal attorney/attorney general, William Barr, continues to insist that the FBI investigation was illegitimate, and claims that the IG’s report saying it was not politically motivated “makes clear” that Barr’s insistence on the opposite is correct.
Oh-- and one more time. The Ukranians did not hack the DNC emails-- the Russians did. The FBI did not give the servers to the Ukranians, since there were no servers. And what's the deal with flushing toilets??? Nobody flushes toilets fifteen times, for chrissakes!
