Durham: Obama & gang knew Russian collusion was a Clinton campaign trick and withheld it from agents

Of course Durham is the bad sort of special counsel as he is going after Democrats so he is not to be trusted

What did Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Loretta Lynch, and James Comey know about Russia-collusion — and when did they know it? John Durham dropped a bombshell in his testimony today at House Oversight, which will go on for at least a couple of hours or more, but this part wasn’t the bombshell. In his special-counsel report, Durham had already revealed that CIA Director John Brennan briefed these four in August 2016 that Hillary Clinton planned to paint Donald Trump as linked to Russian intelligence, presumably to shift attention away from her own e-mail scandal.

JORDAN: Can you tell the committee what happened when you took that referral memo, and shared it with one of those agents?

DURHAM: We interviewed the first supervisor on the Crossfire investigation, the operational person. We showed him the intelligence information. He indicated he had never seen it before. He immediately became emotional, and got up and left the room with his lawyer, spent some time in the hallway, came back.

JORDAN: He was ticked off, wasn’t he? He was ticked off because this was something he should have had as an agent on the case. This was important information that the director of the FBI kept from the people doing the investigation.

DURHAM: The information was kept from them.

So basically the FBI agents actually investigating what they believe to be bon-fide intelligence that a Presidential candidate might be in bed with a foreign adversary were not ever told that the bombshell intelligence that they had was actually political opposition research that their bosses already understood to be nonsense. Now I wonder exactly how many of these agents understood (or at least suspected) what was going on (and didn't care or supported it) and how many were truly surprised and upset to find out they were investigating a fake report bought and paid for by Hillary Clinton. I suspect there were a number of each. We already know most everyone in FBI brass was in on things and were plotting to undermine Trump at every turn.

Moreover, this means that some of these people probably lied bald face to our Congress during hearings. Not that an FBI agent or FBI manager lying is a big deal. Perfectly acceptable. But if there is something semantic that could get switched around so the FBI might consider a statement "misleading" then you can find yourself gong to jail. EG: George Papadapoulos for stating accurately that we was not working for the Trump campaign, but that they found "misleading" because he was hired the very next week. In other words, he was punished because their intel said he had been hired the previous week, when in fact he wasn't. So they sent an undercover agent at this guy "before" he was working for Trump and were upset he pointed that out.
