Breaking News (now over a year ago) and to what avail?

The victims (all of us) of the political persecution of Trump based on lies, intended as a coup or to spoil reelection prospects, deserve timely resolve or the plotters may achieve their goal. The coup is ongoing until its illegality is exposed

In May, (of 2019) U.S. attorney general William Barr selected Durham, a longtime prosecutor with a résumé so sterling it nearly glows, to investigate the origins of the special counsel’s probe…

WE DIDN’T READ THE FINE PRINT…we just bought the usual ‘swamp line’:

REPORT: Durham Under Pressure to Wrap Up Spygate Investigation, Could ‘Punt it to After the Election’

“John Durham, the US Attorney from Connecticut appointed to investigate the origins of Spygate, is reportedly under pressure to wrap up his probe by the end of summer.” (Fox News)

“However, according to two sources who spoke to Fox News, Durham could wait to initiate prosecutions or reveal his findings until after the 2020 presidential election..!!!

“The source also told Fox News that Durham “does not want this to be viewed political,” and the closer it gets to November, Durham could “punt it to after the election.”

We just bought the usual ‘Swamp Line”…Let’s see now:

We went back over stories reported at the time Barr named Durham to do this all important (to the future of the USA) investigation. The “book” on Durham, as it always is when there’s a Trump appointment that “Republicans” and Democrats are ‘happy with’ is “sterling”.

We shoulda seen this coming. Some ‘highlights’:

– (Durham)…enjoys a ‘bipartisan reputation’ and successful track record in investigating high-profile cases including Whitey Bulger and CIA abuse of terrorism suspects. (Well, of course!)

– Durham became a Justice Department lawyer in 1982 and has conducted special investigations for both the Republican and Democratic Parties (BOTH!..how much fairer and ‘bi-partisan’ does it get??)

– Former Attorney General Janet Reno commissioned Durham to investigate the FBI’s relationship with informant and Boston mobster Whitey Bulger in 1999

– …(Durham) …further examined the CIA’s handling of detainees at the request of former Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. under the Obama administration in 2009, according to The NYT.

– President Donald Trump nominated Durham in 2017 to be Connecticut’s U.S. attorney. Durham received bipartisan support and the U.S. Senate unanimously confirmed him in February 2018 (and what has been Trump’s experience with his nominees that have received Democrat, especially ‘unanimous’, support?)

–  “John Durham has earned immense respect as a no-nonsense, fierce, and fair prosecutor,” Democratic Connecticut Sens. Richard Blumenthal and Chris Murphy said when they recommended him to Trump…(If you know of two more partisan Democratic senators in DC, let us know)!!

– “Colleagues say Durham is thorough and cautious in deciding whether a case deserves to be prosecuted,” a TIME Magazine article noted of Durham in 2009. “But once he fixes on a target, the veteran lawyer usually catches his prey.” (Oooh! Look out Democrats!)

– “Other than an overwhelming commitment to the cause of justice, the two great devotions of John’s life are his Catholic faith and his family,” John Durham’s longtime friend and colleague, Deputy Chief State’s Attorney Leonard C. Boyle (uh, yeah. ‘devotion to a “Higher Loyalty”, huh? Seems we heard something like that somewhere else…oh yeah, Jim Whatsisname))                  dlh

REPORT: Durham Under Pressure to Wrap Up Spygate Investigation, Could ‘Punt it to After the Election’ … And President Trump is Furious!
