"How John Durham Buried Evidence He Had Been Doing the Work of Russian Spies … and then Tulsi Gabbard Buried More"
"Durham — as well as John Ratcliffe and Kash Patel — should have recognized they were pursuing an investigation of Hillary Clinton based off a deliberate Russian spy hoax."
"Durham (who continued his investigation for two more years after he would have concluded the emails were “composites”)"

@emptywheel How #JohnDurham Buried #Evidence He Had Been Doing the Work of #Russian #Spies … and then #TulsiGabbard Buried. As I’ve been showing, the Durham #classified annex goes to significant lengths to hide that a #Russian #email discussing creating a #conspiracy theory about the American #DeepState, which he dates to July 26, precedes the draft SVR memo he claims has animated his years-long hunt, which dates to July 27 or later. https://www.emptywheel.net/2025/08/09/how-john-durham-buried-evidence-he-had-been-doing-the-work-of-russian-spies-and-then-tulsi-gabbard-buried-more/ https://www.emptywheel.net/2025/08/09/how-john-durham-buried-evidence-he-had-been-doing-the-work-of-russian-spies-and-then-tulsi-gabbard-buried-more/ #maga

#StableGenius #DonaldTrump resurrected the #DurhamReport in an attempt to distract his #MAGA base from the #CoverUp of the #EpsteinFiles.
By doing so, reporters had access to the annex of the final report submitted by #Trump -appointed Special Counsel #JohnDurham on #HillaryClinton and #BarackObama conspiring with the #FBI on the ‘#TrumpRussiaHoax.’ The annex that was previously Classified reveals (checks notes) additional evidence of #TrumpRussiaCollusion in #USpol. 😂 https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/durham-annex-evidence-likely-made-up-russia-1235398702/

#JohnDurham—the #specialcounsel who was appointed by then #AttorneyGeneral #BillBarr to investigate the #FBI’s investigation of the #TrumpRussia #scandal and who utterly failed to produce evidence it was a #hoax—testified before the #HouseJudiciaryCommittee on Wednesday. In doing so, he made #False Statements to #Congress. He might even have #lied. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2023/06/john-durham-just-made-false-statements-to-congress/

The #MuellerReport points out that Trump Jr. zeroed in on this: “Trump Jr. asked follow-up questions about how the alleged payments could be tied specifically to the Clinton Campaign, but Veselnitskaya indicated that she could not trace the money once it entered the United States.” The report quotes a participant in the meeting recalling “that Trump Jr. asked what they [the Russians] have on Clinton.”
-
#Durham dismissed the matter, remarking,“People get phone calls all the time from individuals who claim to have information like that.”
This meeting signaled to Moscow that the #Trump camp was receptive to #Russian endeavors to intervene in the election to boost Trump’s chances, & #Schiff expressed surprise that Durham found it insignificant. “Are you really trying to diminish the importance of what happened here?” he asked.
-
During his turn to question #JohnDurham, Rep.Adam #Schiff asked #Durham about the infamous meeting in #Trump Tower on June9,2016, when #DonaldTrumpJr, #JaredKushner, & #PaulManafort —3 of Trump’s top campaign advisers—sat down w/an emissary of the #Russian gov whom they were told had dirt on #HillaryClinton to share. An email sent to TrumpJr from a business assoc that set up this session informed the candidate’s son that this meeting was part of a secret Russian scheme to help Trump’s campaign.
-
When #Durham came before the cmte, #House #Republicans eagerly picked over the scraps in his final report, which has been much criticized, & they treated him as a hero. But under questioning from Democratic & Republican members, Durham #misrepresented key aspects of the #Russia scandal, suggesting he was either unfamiliar w/basic facts or was purposefully trying to #mislead the cmte & the American public.

"He made up, out of thin air, his claim that a Russian intelligence report 'suggested' Hillary was going to make false claims about Donald Trump rather than simply repeating all the true things that were damning enough.
The entire Durham Report was built on this fabrication, a fabrication he used to claim that Hillary was framing someone, instead of doing so himself."

"For the more than three years, John Durham criminally investigated whether Hillary framed Donald Trump. And that entire investigation is based on a premise that even he describes was only 'arguably suggested' by the evidence on which he builds it.
In fact, Durham fabricated that entire part of it."

John Durham needed more than 300 pages just to say "Herp Derp."

Looking in vain for a summary of the total cost of the William Barr - #JohnDurham nothing burger
Compare it to the cost of investigation run by #DOJ inspector general, Michael E. Horowitz.

Shan Wu says that John Durham owes American taxpayers an apology:
"Special counsel John Durham’s final report reveals that four years, a $6.5 million spend, and many dining dates with former Attorney General Barr yielded nothing. As a prosecutor who served as a supervisor on an independent counsel investigation, I find Durham’s investigation to be a complete waste of taxpayer dollars."

🥥 #Vox article opines #BillBarr-appointed #Trump Special Counsel #JohnDurham's report is stunning hypocrisy. 🥥

"John Durham has, after four years, finally released a report.
It is corrupt. It harms America. It misrepresents FISA.
It also repeats claims that were debunked under oath."

Der in der Russland-Affäre vom früheren US-Präsidenten eingesetzte Sonderermittler hat nach vierjähriger Arbeit seinen Abschlussbericht vorgelegt. Darin lässt er kein gutes Haar an der amerikanischen Bundespolizei.

All those dollars — huge sums of them — wasted on what anyone with a brain knew was a witch hunt that would find nothing. Trump-appointed John Durham has issued his report on the Mueller investigation, and it's — as expected — a total nothing burger.
As the Republicans, who clamored for this report, scream about the national debt and saving money — while they throw it by handfuls at a fake investigation.

The #DurhamReport is finally released by the Justice Department, and we are once again reminded that #JohnDurham was an incompetent #SpecialCounsel chasing down the grievances of #DonaldTheDeplorable regarding the warranted but curiously limited investigations into dangerous and still ongoing #TrumpRussiaCollusion. 👉 https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/john-durham-report-released-special-counsel-fbi-trump-russia-investigation/
