Editorial | Stormy times follow Durham’s critique of FBI’s failed Trump-Russia collusion inquiry WashTimesOpEd
The obvious is no surprise, and neither are its consequences. That’s the takeaway from the summary of special counsel John Durham’s four-year investigation into the FBI’s allegations of collusion between Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and Russian mischief-makers. Americans of sound mind had already reached the same conclusion: The agency was bent on proving a scheme that didn’t happen. Rather than showing contrition, however, top law enforcement officials are storming back.
“Based on the review of Crossfire Hurricane and related intelligence activities,” Mr. Durham wrote, “we conclude that the [Justice] Department and FBI failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law in connection with certain events and activities described in this report.” In contrast, evidence of election interference on the part of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign was suppressed. The reason for the disparity is obvious: Partisans among FBI leadership backed Mrs. Clinton’s campaign. They wanted her to win the presidency, and they took steps to derail Mr. Trump’s presidency when he prevailed.
While still occupying the White House, President Barack Obama was briefed on the Clinton campaign’s plot against Hillary’s Republican opponent by erstwhile CIA Director John Brennan. Worship of the Democratic godhead’s reputation has only intensified. Even Joe Biden himself as vice president recommended charging Trump adviser Michael Flynn with criminal violation of the Logan Act, Oval Office records suggest.
