Special Counsel John Durham previously submitted his 306-page report on Matters Related to the Intelligence Community Efforts in the 2016 Election [pdf HERE]. There is also a 48-page classified appendix available to cleared members of Congress.
On Tuesday June 20th, Durham will deliver a classified briefing to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI); the following day, Wednesday June 21st, Durham will testify in a public setting before the House Judiciary Committee.
WASHINGTON DC – Special Counsel John Durham will testify in front of the House Judiciary Committee about his report in June, a source has told Fox News on Friday.
The hearing will happen on Wednesday, June 21. The day before, Durham will appear before the House Intelligence Committee in a closed-door briefing.
Durham has found that the Department of Justice and FBI “failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law” when it launched the Trump-Russia investigation. (read more)
We have a little less than a month to assemble questions for both the classified (HPSCI) briefing, and the public (HJC) hearing.
If you have traveled the deep weeds and have a specific line of questioning you think might be pertinent to either committee 😉, I am including the Republican names of both the HPSCI and HJC below. The HPSCI members can ask anything – including questions directly related to classified intelligence. The HJC members will not be limited in their questions but might find a non-answer in return to anything considered classified.
The FISA silo would likely fall into the classified questioning, depending on the specifics of the inquiry. Questions involving the CIA and/or ODNI involvement may also be best explored in the HPSCI briefing.
HPSCI Republicans (classified briefing):
- Michael Turner, Chairman 10th District of Ohio
- Brad Wenstrup, 2nd District of Ohio
- Chris Stewart, 2nd District of Utah
- Rick Crawford, 1st District of Arkansas
- ♦♦Elise Stefanik, 21st District of New York
- Trent Kelly, 1st District of Mississippi
- Darin LaHood, 18th District of Illinois
- Brian Fitzpatrick, 1st District of Pennsylvania
- Mike Gallagher, 8th District of Wisconsin
- Austin Scott, 8th District of Georgia
- French Hill, 2nd District of Arkansas
- Dan Crenshaw, 2nd District of Texas
- Mike Waltz, 6th District of Florida

.
♦♦ Gaetz, Johnson, Biggs, Bishop and Hageman are the best chance for solid HJC questions that are pertinent. I strongly suggest you send questions to this group, even if they are outside your CD. However, if your area representative is also on the committee, copy them on your questions.
Unfortunately, we have a weak set on the HPSCI with only Stefanik and maybe Garcia for the targeted questions.
If you have questions, drop them in the comments section. If you are looking for advice on the questions, drop that in the comments section as well. We need to light up these committees with contact from people who understand the background issues.
We have time to submit the questions. Make them as specific as possible, and include the follow-up questions based on anticipated responses. Send them yourself to the members of the committee you want to have ask them. Do not send them to me. I have questions and will review the comments to add to my own list – but make the questions from you to the members.
There are people who prefer to complain about nothing being done. Please understand, we are all in a foxhole right now, ducking, weaving, trying to find tools to push back against this corrupt system. This is an opportunity to put information into the hands of those who may ask the right questions.
They may ask, they may not… but if we don’t try, we know the answer will be not. I get it! I know it is easy to become despondent; believe me, sometimes I feel like I’m out here swinging a machete all alone against this swamp, but I’m not quitting. Suck it up… get focused. Our nation needs your help.
Review the prior CTH articles posted about The Durham Report, and put your thoughts together. We have until mid-June to make a solid case with our representatives.
Do, or do not, there is no “try”.
You are worth it. You really are.
More later…
Love to all,
Sundance
Durham behaved just like a Soros-owned prosecutor. See the crime. Decry the crime. Absolve the criminals. Lie to the public that the criminals have been reformed. Set the stage for many more future crimes.
Really? Soros, et al, would NOT let him reveal anything.
Mr. Durham, are there two systems of justice in this country?
His answer would be, yes, I just proved it.
Devils’ Advocate:
No, but from time to time individual actors take it upon themselves to enforce the law unequally.
Mr. Durham, what prevents the corrupt FBI/DOJ from repeating coups like the one you’ve been investigating for four years from happening again? Has your decision to not seek indictments against the perpetrators signaled to the corrupt FBI/DOJ that they are immune from prosecution and have cart blanc to engineer our elections creating de facto tyranny and a two tiered justice system?
Devils Advocate:
The FBI has said it put measures in place to stop this from happening. If you’d like details contact Christopher Wray (and see how that goes).
Sometimes I don’t always catch the nuances, but please tell me you wrote “The FBI has said it put measures in in place…” with you tongue planted firmly in you cheek.
Mr Durham define treason?
Mr Durham define sedation?
Mr Durham what does the constitution say regarding treason and sedation?
(Taken from how how John Kennedy, LA asks questions? )
You beat me to it and I might add, “In you opinion, were there treasonous actions or acts of sedition committed by ANY of the parties you investigated?”
And a follow up
Mr. Durham if your findings don’t meet the threshold for treason, then they must meet the criteria for Seditious Conspiracy?
Sedition…excellent questions.
Sedition by our Senior Executive Service “annointed ones.”
Perhaps more sedation would be good; at least, in theory, they wouldn’t be so active…..
“Mr. Durham, in your position you are sworn to uphold the law under the Constitution of the United States, is that correct?”
“Yes”
“Please read for me Amendment IV of our United States Constitution. We have it here for you printed out in case you don’t know it by heart.”
“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
“Mr. Durham… do you believe President Trump’s constitutional rights have been violated or protected according to this amendment – and how so?”
(Himming, hawing, and otherwise confused blubbering because he probably doesn’t even know the Constitution he violates.)
“Mr. Durham, read for us Amendment V of the Constitution starting with double jeopardy.”
“Nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”
“Mr. Durham – how many times will President Trump be accused and exonerated of the same crime? How many times can an innocent man be called innocent?”
(mumble)
“Mr. Durham – how much of the taxpayer money has been wasted on this witch hunt and how do you intend to recompense the taxpayers of this erroneous burden?”
(mumble)
“Mr. Durham – is slander still a crime?”
“Yes”
“Mr. Durham – is perjury under oath still a crime?”
“Yes”
“Mr. Durham – is bearing false witness resulting in personal injury of the wrongly accused a crime?”
“Yes”
“Mr. Durham – we have here an accounting of the legal expenses paid for by the RNC, the taxpayers, President Trump. Would you consider this damage against his person in his defense in the face of wrongful and salacious slander?”
(mumble)
“When can we expect you to bring charges against (name) by (name) by (name) by (name) and how will you go about recompensating the innocently accused and the American taxpayers?”
^^^^^^This guy gets it.^^^^^^
You may need to clarify the word “offense” as used in the 5th amendment. Here’s why:
Cornell Law School definition of offense:
Offense is a legal term used to refer to conducts or omissions that violate and are punishable under criminal law. The terms offense, criminal offense, and crime are often used as interchangeable synonyms. The term offense may be frequently used to describe a minor crime. However, an offense is not the same as a civil wrong, a term used in the context of tort law.
Each state has the power to establish what conducts and omissions are considered offenses (or crimes) for punishing purposes. Congress may also choose what type of conducts and omissions to punish as federal offenses (or crimes).
Depending on their severity, criminal offenses belong to one of three categories:
[Last updated in July of 2021 by the Wex Definitions Team]
If Ted Bundy was acquitted for the offense of MURDER in his first trial, what happens to any subsequent trials (100+) where the offense is MURDER, as well? Is that considered double jeopardy? (remember who’s running the DOJ now…)
In your opinion, should there be criminal references. Who did you report to directly?
OUTSTANDING!
THANK YOU SUNDANCE FOR THIS.
God Bless America
God Bless THE LAST REFUGE.
PRESIDENT TRUMP 2024
MAGA!
https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/victoria-taft/2023/05/24/why-didnt-durham-talk-to-the-liars-who-pushed-fake-trump-russia-collusion-the-answers-a-stunner-n1697839
Q: in a recent interview, Bondo Barr made the comment that your SC scope letter was not established to actually prosecute….Other than the scope letter, at any time did the DOJ or anyone in government advise you to stop investigating or to stop prosecuting allegations of criminal violations?
Q2: One at a time, will you tell this committee today, what grand juries, specifically, where empaneled to produce indictments. We want to know specifically what evidence was used and presented to these grand juries?
Q3: 51 former intelligence officials stated publicly that the hunter biden laptop was a russian disinformation operation. In the course of your investigation, did you ever place any of those people under oath and have them testify about how they reached those conclusion and assumptions?
Q4: you were provided a massive well of evidence with professional top grade analysis and credible links tying specific persons who were acting on behalf of the US and the UK and the AUS intelligence committee to commit fraud, manipulate US intelligence officials, and to willfully target a President of the United States. Why did you investigation not consider the action and the background of these people:
milfsud, carter page, papadapalous, and others?
(and that’s just the short list)
at some point, the effort to get durham to talk open about CODE RED, means we have to get mean and personal….atttacking his character…relentlessly…
YOU ARE DAMNED RIGHT I DID!
that is what it’s going to take people.
God Bless America
Good questions. I am unaware of any grand jury activity, especially given that he supposedly did not have a mandate to prosecute? Do you know if there were grand juries? I also don’t understand why this is a special prosecution if he cannot prosecute. And if he cannot prosecute, what exactly, is the point? That means that Durham is operating more like an Inspector General than an investigator/prosecutor. Incredible misnomer. Why are we spending hundreds of millions (between this Silo and the Weissman silo) on propaganda missions? I might like to ask that question. Why are the resources of the intelligence agencies acting for special interest groups? Who was at the head of the operation? Who are the architects and who are the builders?
You are Not Alone!!! I’ve got a couple questions I’d like to have put before Durham too. This is as good of a time as any we are going to get. Make those calls ! The bad guys are attacking us, trench warfare is the way I see it. Pour it on ‘em Sundance! It’s them or us now!
Durham will not answer any questions on any topic not directly in the report. Mueller has already used the standard answer, “That person/topic was not within the purview of my investigation.”
Ask the questions anyway. Make him go on the record. Expose the rot.
Reply to @mrchd: agree: “Ask the questions anyway.” Then ask who set the “purview of the investigation” and why Durham did not question said purview when he found overwhelming evidence of wrong-doing.
Why waste a question you know will result in an “I do not know” answer?
Just like Mueller, there will be NOTHING exposed. There will only be one or two representatives to ask “tough” questions. They will be limited to 5 minutes. So we will get a few “tough” questions. The remainder will be grandstanding questions for sound bite creation.
Durham going “on the record” will do nothing. Durham saying, “This is outside of the purview of my investigation” shuts down any further inquiry. “I do not know because I did not investigate it” is extremely effective unless he is personally facing criminal charges. He is not. Durham is not in jeopardy. He will not be charged with perjury even if he overtly lies to the committee.
I am actually quite surprised that anyone here believes that asking questions at a hearing will result in any action. When has it EVER done so previously? Never. Criminals that work for the government have repeatedly lied to Congress with impunity. With Garland running the DOJ, there will be no consequences. This is an exercise in futility.
“On record” you mean just like the report, that is now on record?
my question would be about the silos, how Mueller could be so comfortable saying basic stuff was not in my purview. What!
This tactic needs sunshine. I am not the best to frame the question but the silos need sunshine.
That tactic is extremely effective and will continue to be so. “I do not know because I did not investigate it.” works great to shut down further inquiry.
“Why did you not investigate it?”
“It was not in the purview of my investigation”
There are so many good points and suggestions raised in this discussion.
But will even an intense grilling in front of Congress even matter?
Unfortunately, no, it won’t matter a lick, even if Durham provides honest answers.
Do not be discouraged , that is what they want. Expose the rot. Shining light on the darkness always matters.
it is necessary to get it on record…this lends credibility and establishes fact.
remember: 31 DEC 2023 is the end of the current patriot act. Congress will either continue it, edit it, or abolish this act. Every single thing that happens in congress on the official record that questions and zeroes in on the patriot act must happen. congress will never alter it’s present condition, unless congress itself creates the political and the public support to end this unconstitutional power. Remember that congress will be fighting the entire DOD, CIA, FBI, DOJ, State Department and even NSA as well as homeland security and every state secret law enforcement agency as well as border enforcement and ATF, and DEA and customs.
Congress must hold these hearing TO PROVE that the patriot act gives unelected people too much power to influence election, attack citizens without a legal threshold protected to do so.
to me..that IS the end goal: abolish the patriot act. Without these hearings and the evidence proven to support it, congress would never move to vote against the patriot act.
God Bless America
Sooo many here Do Not Understand this!
If you know who Seth Rich is, what is on his personal laptop that the FBI is hiding?
Who has Seth Rich’s personal laptop – you know, the one he used to send the thumb drive of DNC information he downloaded and shared with Julien Assange of Wikileaks – yeah that laptop – Where and who has the Seth Rich laptop at the FBI?
If Seth Rich is not in your “purview” are the Russians on Seth Rich’s laptop? Did the FBI find evidence Russia hacked the DNC on Rich Seth’s laptop?
Q1: Mr Durham given the findings of your inquiries do you trust the FBI, FISA, the Press and/or our intelligence agencies?
Q2: Again given your findings if this was done to a Presidential candidate who then became duly elected President what hope of protection do average citizens have from this abuse of power?
How do you live with yourself?
The main utility of the hearing will come, not from a doomed effort to elicit more information or get Durham to proffer opinions on crimes, but from getting some viral video for use in the information war.
The two key takeaways seem to be that the FBI and DOJ had zero evidence to open the Crossfire Hurricane investigation and that someone put the kibosh on 4 Clinton Foundation investigations and destroyed the evidence.
So do things like this:
Play footage of Schiff’s endless and hyperbolic claims there is a mountain of evidence that President Trump was colluding with Russia.
“Mr. Durham, We gave just watched Rep. Schiff claim that evidence exists that President Trump colluded with Russia. After your very thorough review, are you aware of any such evidence?”
“No.”
“Did Mr. Schiff ever offer you such evidence, or did you ask him to provide that evidence to you?”
“No, he did not.”
“Do you have any reason to believe that Mr. Schiff, who held a position in which he was regularly briefed on all matters that would have included evidence of collusion with Russia, had any basis whatsoever for the statements I just played for you?”
“No.”
“So Mr. Schiff lied, didn’t he?”
Then run that footage everywhere it can penetrate the normie fog brain.
Excellent suggestion, because everyone knows that he’s not going to divulge anything else. The sound bites from Schiff/Schumer/Pelosi etc could be montages with the MSM to make a compelling campaign ad for Trump.
I’d end the ad with Trump saying “They attempted a coup on your duly elected President and spent the last 6 years lying about it.
Those same people conspired to steal the 2020 Election from the people and installed Joe Biden as their puppet President.
The Democrats and their allies in DC have turned against the people.
Biden’s policies have brought nothing but chaos, misery and suffering to Americans.
Americans want a strong economy, safe communities, cheap gas, an end to costly/dangerous wars and a secure border.
Americans deserve better, you deserve better, send me back to DC and let’s finish what we started.
I THINK THIS IS A GREAT IDEA
I will add my 2 cents…
I see these committee hearings are a God send!
A little anecdote from personal experience…
President Trump once stated that “Truth is a force of nature.”.
This ties directly into the ancient Greek Socratic philosophers, later incorporated into the Catholic Church’s Depositum Fidei, (Augustine, Aquinas) who believed that Truth is an external reality, outside of the collective conscience of the nation’s citizenry (i.e. Descartes and Kant. Especially Kant).
So why am I going “philosophical”?
Well, many years ago I (a company that I worked for) found myself/ourselves in a similar position. We were the victims of fraud perpetrated by a cabal of government employees. The government employees thought that they were “untouchable” and lied, lied and lied some more, over an extended period of time. They thought that if they could drag the situation out long enough, we would just pack up our balls and go home. They were very wrong.
Since our initial complaints went nowhere, we decided on a long term strategy (St. Augustine), i.e. documenting all the lies (in form of depositions and even a couple of court decisions). Each time we got more evidence (documented) we would raised the issue of the documented lies, but the complaint would just be dropped. It was the “we don’t see anything here that we can prosecute/go to court with…” line.
This went on for the better part of 17 years!
But what ended up happening is that the case file got so big, that it could not be ignored any longer.
And when the thing hit, it hit bigly!
So my advice (again, from personal experience) is that we need to do the following:
1) Define good questions. (Bad questions clutter up the evidence file)
2) Get them (questions/answers if provided) into the public (Congressional) record.
3) Assemble an evidence file in one central place (This blog is great at this. It’s all here already!)
4) Find a trusted Congressman that will want to work with this “complete case file”.
5) See if there are any ways to get information sets (lines of questioning) into the Congressional Record even if the questions are not asked publicly at the hearing. (One thing we learned is that if it is “on paper”, it cannot be ignored.)
6) Make the case file as big as possible.
And now the most important part!
7) Draft a timeline of the entire file. (Three columns in a Word doc: 1) date, 2) event/document/brief synopsis and 3) significance to case-tying into other entries).
Number 7) IS CRITICAL.
8) If the investigators/attorneys/congressmen have the timeline in front of their eyes, they will know what questions to ask. Moreover, even in a few years time, those who know the timeline will still be able to outline the key points of the case even if they forgot the minutia.
And keep the file growing. Keep it a living thing! (Our motto was: If it’s alive, it will eventually bite them!)
And finally a word of caution: the enemy will play on the sheer scale of the project, i.e. they will try to lose the investigator in the document dumpster. We will be adding to the document dumpster ourselves. Therefore, the TIMELINE document will be the most important document in the entire file.
And finally.
“Treason” and “coup” and references to violations of the Code and Constitutional Amendments should be liberally mentioned in the case file timeline (Column 3). This is called the priming of the case file. (links at end of post) Next is the framing. The identification of the transgressions is very important. I had a 15 minute elevator pitch ready for when asked: “Why did these government officials do this”? My reasons were limited to three major points (with document reference at end of each point): going from high to low resolution. In this case, I would structure the elevator pitch from 1) FBI agents interfered in 2016 election – page x of documents y,z,aa, 2) to cover up wider NSA Data Base abuse-repurposing of Patriot Act – page y of documents cc,dd,ee, 3) when lost control, Senate Intel committee entered cover-up to keep 4th Branch in control over Constitutional Government – page z of document ff,gg,hh.
And President Trump caught them!
And lastly, we all need to remember that we are in it for the long haul.
Even if we don’t get the results this time, the evidence file is a living thing getting bigger the entire time.
And eventually, it will bite.
“The Truth is a force of nature”.

Most excellent!!
This is excellent! Those of us who have time should all be doing this.
So we should expect to see justice done in 17 years? Your tenacity is quite admirable, but nearly every govt worker and Congressperson will be out of their positions in 17 years. Additionally, there would have to be a AG in DC who would prosecute them. There is not. Righteous indignation feels wonderful, but changes nothing. Lying is no longer a crime in DC. Sedition only applies to conservatives.
No, I am not saying that we should wait 17 years for justice.
What I am saying is that we have to play the long game, while “keeping the ball up in the air”.
You never know when the “win” will come along, but you “got to be in it, to win it”.
Sorry for all the cliches…
Now I have to go get paper, print out the articles by Sundance, go to my print shop and have them print out Durham’s report.
Start marking the crap out of them.
If people can start linking other articles, other than Sundance’s, that have asked good questions, or have raised good points, I’d appreciate people posting those links.
sundance: an idea. Congressional members are allowed to invite “witnesses”, subj to of course, rules of committee.
would you be open to serving as a witness and as a “aide” to specific members of congress, assisting with their staff to produce?
a. key questions. WITH material evidence that can be provided copy and presentation material
b. key star witnesses that should also be invited to sit WITH the committee and also those sitting BEFORE the committee
I know of no other person that I would trust to work out the details with congressional members, preparing them for this important day(S?) in this inquiry than YOU!
Sending material to congress is one thing. We can do that. collectively. What I believe would be most effective is having YOU on site, well in advance of these inquiries preparing members with key material facts…and helping to produce a line of questions and establishing what witnesses that should sit before this committee…
I think we must realize that no matter what happens on that day, the BIG effects will require follow on…more than just one day.
for instance…this is only a testimony/inquiry.
in order for actions to be taken, congress must be capable of presenting a credible and actionable plan well before this testimony, and then after the testimony, act upon that plan.
I believe YOU providing them with your well formed, deep and detailed knowledge and your collection of falsifiable evidence would help produce an outcome that is more likely to lead to a action of strategy …
If I may: I believe the goals of this strategy are not simply to hold those persons accountable but to form a well reasoned and documented cause for abolishing the patriot act.
at the very core of these abuses and lawless corrupt acts, is the patriot act. An unconstitutional law that has created a lawless secret police spy state that does not serve the purpose that it was intended to serve.
In this strategy, all material evidence presented to congress must reflect on that clear and present danger (grave danger, is there any other kind?)..that without the patriot act, these corrupt people would have to openly engage in criminal activities. Abolishing it and ending the patriot act has to be the single highest priority to keep these goons in check.
There is a clock ticking…31 Dec 2023…congress will either continue the patriot act in its present form, allowing future “legal” unconstitutional surveillance and abuses of power and the vast number of destruction to due process, human rights, civil rights, and habeas, or congress can do what needs to be done and end it.
facts: foreign surveillance of foreign non us citizens who hold no constitutional protections DO NOT REQUIRE THE PATRIOT ACT. It has always been a lie that the patriot act was necessary to surveil bad foreign actors or foreign targets of interest. Surveillance of US citizens, domestic or when traveling abroad, should return to normal constitutional law: if there is suspicion or allegations of criminal activity, go to a normal court judge, produce the evidence and gain a warrant. PERIOD!. Secret Police Spy State Courts must end.
God Bless America
Where’s the 10,000 upvote button when we need it?
Mr. Durham, can you please explain why no one from the CFH team, or your office, ever interviewed Julian Assange?
Is the report presented to the public the report produce by you, Durham? Or has it been modified (for example, by or at the behest of Garland)
Mr. Durham, how many government employees mentioned in your report will now lose their government pensions for having broken the law?
Mr. Durham,
Using your report in a hypothetical court case for treason in a DC courtroom who would be convicted Obama, Clinton, Brennan, Clapper, Comey, McCabe, Strzok or Donald J Trump?
Hmmm. I wonder what’s in the 38 pages we can’t see?
In your report you noted:
False statements
36 3. Perjury
37 4. Falsification of records
38 5. Obstruction of justice
39 6. Violation of civil rights
39 7. Conspiracy to violate civil rights
41 I I . Fraud against the United States
41 12. Money-laundering
as among the violations committed against Donald Trump or his campaign associates by individuals in the FBI and/or the FISA court and/or the DOJ. Given these, what is the appropriate remedy for the individuals who have been harmed by these crimes?
What is the best way to prosecute these crimes?
What is the best way to ensure they are not happening now?
If they are continuing to happen now, as with the DOJ special prosecutor Jack Smith, what can be done to prevent him from violating the rights of Donald Trump?
Given that all of the criminal efforts you reported on to destroy Flynn, Manafort, and Trump were “insurance policies” against Trump investigating possible crimes such as treason or sedition committed by President Obama, Secretary of State Clinton, what is the best means of investigating them for the crimes they committed while in office?
The crimes are no longer able to be prosecuted since the Statute of Limitations is 5 years. If only Durham could have finished his report just a little quicker. I wonder why he could not. Strange.
Not if you do it as RICO under the premise of a continuing conspiracy.
Why didn’t Durham report about the role of the CIA? Peter Strzok, Nellie Ohr, Prof Mifsud, Carter Page, Amb Alexander Downer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, Azura Turk, Stefan Halper, the London CIA office, 5-eyes, George Papadopolous, et al. Seems to me the whole start of hoax was CIA lying breadcrumbs for the 5-eyes and FBI to follow.
And seems Durham missed the transformation of the Russia hoax on candidate Trump to a coup d’etat on duly elected President-elect Trump on Jan 5, 2017, “by the book”, meeting led by Obama and Brennan and Rice.
What was the fundamental purpose of your investigation? I ask this for all who perished on the Titanic.
By all means send questions to reps but we all know how this hearing will go because they all go the same way: “That would reveal sources and methods”, “I can’t comment on an ongoing investigation”, “That’s classified”, “Not within my purview”,
“I’m not going there”, “I don’t recall” et cetera ad nauseum. Every variation of “Pound sand” possible.
Kevin Clinesmith was a sworn Law Enforcement Officer, a sworn Constitutional Officer and – as an attorney – an Officer of the Court. Horowitz uncovered emails that he physically altered and submitted to the court in application to electronically surveil a US citizen and everyone that person communicated with.
Why did you and Bill Barr allow him to lie to the court once again in his plea agreement by claiming that he did this “unintentionally” and get off with an embarrassingly light sentence, rather than try him for “willfully” doing what he did – i.e. Deprive Americans of their Fourth Amendment Rights Under Color of Law and set an example?
Why does this person still have a Law License? Why wasn’t he compelled to cooperate in order to get such a sweet deal?

What do you eat for breakfast?
I have a friend with stomach problems who can’t keep anything down. If you can, knowing what you do and doing nothing about it then you either have an iron will or you are eating something very agreeable to your system. So what do you eat for breakfast?
Follow him to the restroom in the morning to find out.
Can we please get an a Durham answer for Mifsud? The BS predicate for CH was Mifsud-papa d-downer-FBI. we have known for ever that the predicate was BS. Now I want an official explanation for the face that launched 1000 ships.
Mr. Durham, when you hear the phrase “loyal opposition”, to what do you assign the word “loyal” to? (It used to have meaning; it meant loyal to the U.S. Constitution and its Bill of Rights, and, therefore, to the United States of America. When oaths of office are sworn on a Bible, it’s more than words—-it’s a covenant!)
Mr Durham. Why did soros and company let you reveal the things you exposed?
How could the act of expelling Russian diplomats by Obama in 2016 have affected relations leading up to the Ukraine war
Who hacked the DNC???
My final offering of Question for Mr Durham:
Mr. Durham given the findings of your inquiries exposing the height, and breadth of corruption in government and our political class why should the American people believe anything our government and the politicians say about anything such as war, pandemics, who is or who isn’t a terrorist and most importantly up to and including that we have fair elections?
Durham answer. You shouldn’t!
There is a long list of people who should have been interviewed or subpoenaed and charged with crimes, yet none of these things happened. Why?
Mr. Durham, good morning. Your Special Counsel has spent 6 million dollars and several years to conclude that Russian interference in the 2016 election did not exist. In fact, you found instead, it was a political-op that originated in the Hillary Clinton campaign, manufactured to connect Donald Trump to Russian assets with the intention of sabotaging his run for President.
Can you tell me why the Mueller Special Counsel, which was created to look at the same Russian interference in the 2016 election, and after spending two years and 40 million dollars, could not make the same conclusion you did—that it was the Hillary campaign fabricating a false narrative?
Follow up:
Mr. Durham: The Mueller Counsel did not conclude, as you did, that the Justice Department and the FBI failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law.
Why is that?
Mr. Durham: would you, in general, tend to agree with these to thoughts?
“This, and this alone, is why lawbreakers ought to be punished: The aim of criminal law cannot be correction or deterrence; it can only be the maintenance of the legal order.”
Thomas Szasz (b. 1920), U.S. psychiatrist. The Second Sin, “Punishment” (1973).
And
“There is no crueler tyranny than that which is perpetuated under the shield of law and in the name of justice.”
Charles de Montesquieu
Mr. Durham:
Given the fact that you have attained no criminal convictions, but only a guilty plea from one FBI lawyer, Kevin Clinesmith, who is a free man today and can still practice law,
Mr. Durham, keeping those two pearls of wisdom in mind:
Do you believe the lack of indictments, convictions or punishment for Department and FBI officials, who—under the shield of law—instigated and likely obstructed various investigations within your appointed purview, magnifies and perpetuates a tyrannical two tier system of Justice in the United States of America today?
The FBI conducted 278,000 unauthorized (illegal) warrantless searches in 2020 and early 2021.
In 2022 Americans found out that Perkins Coie, a law firm representing Hilary Clinton and the DNC had a secure FBI portal in their office.
Was that FBI portal at Perkins Coie running warrantless searches against Donald Trump and/or any of his campaign members or associates prior to the 2020 election?
If the warrantless searches were being run from the secure FBI portal at Perkins Coie, was the purpose to convert politically motivated dirt into politically motivated investigations?
If the answer to these questions is yes, what are the implications for our system of justice, our ability to have free and fair elections, our IVth amendment right to freedom from warrantless searches and what legal remedy should be applied to those individuals who were illegally searched?
What steps should be taken to prosecute those engaging in such behavior?
Mr. Durham, is removing the Patriot Act the only way to get rid of the FISA Court System, or is there a way to reform the Patriot Act to exclude the unconstitutional FISA Court? If not, what can be done to de-politicize your FBI in the future? Your entire report revolves around seditious violations of President Trump’s ability to run the Presidency in the way he promised the American voters he would and remember that the President is the only Government official who is elected to his job by the voters of the whole country. Nobody in any Bureaucracy was ever elected to their job.
I want Nancy Pelosi and Mayor Bowser to testify UNDER OATH before Congress as to why they refused Trump’s request for a strong Nantional Guard Presence in the Capital on Jan 6th…of course they will lie- But not enough police, Ray Epps encouraging people to “go INTO the Capital”, some stranger with Epps taking down the barriers BEFORE Epps began this urging, making it easy for people to follow his agenda. Just follow this sequence.. If Trump had wanted a riot on Jan 6th (which I don’t believe for one minute he had anything to do with) why would have have resquested more security be authorized? If the mob had ignored Ray Epps, the “pipe bomb” (remember this little bit of theatre that the Dems have completely buried?) would have probably been detonated…..that was their fall back plan
Why did you not bring indictments? Isn’t that the role of a special investigator? Are you implying that it would be unreasonable to bring charges? Do you believe it would be pointless to bring a criminal action against Democrats in Washington DC?
Questions for Special Counsel Durham:
What was the role of William Aldenberg in your investigation? Was he still employed as an FBI agent at the time? Can the FBI be trusted to investigate itself? Do you believe it was ethical for Aldenberg to participate in the Alex Jones Sandy Hook defamation lawsuit as a plaintiff? Did Aldenberg’s participation as a plaintiff affect his activities within your investigation? Does Aldenberg’s award of $90 million in the judgment for defamation and emotional distress seem excessive to you?
Page 4 of the Durham report mentions contractors employed in the investigation. What work did they do, and who were they?
Page 9 of the Durham report mentions a longtime confidential human source. What is the approximate net worth of this CHS? Did they ever receive payment for being a CHS? Were these payments properly reported on their tax returns?
Page 14 of the Durham report mentions that the FBI failed to consider that the Crossfire Hurricane investigation might have been built upon a foundation of Russian disinformation. In your opinion, was this a Russian trap, and if so, who were the intended targets?
Page 17 of the Durham report mentions access to certain internet records. How was this access obtained? Who granted it?
Are you aware of any connection between your appointment as Special Counsel and the beginning of the series of internet postings attributed to “Q”?
Mr. Durham, do you think that seditious conspiracy is legal?
Mr. Durham — as a normal American patriot looks at the unbelievable attacks on a sitting president (Trump) and how no matter what he does the “Justice” Department keeps coming after him, why should the American public think the Federal government won’t come after them since there seems to be no “justice” for innocent Republicans — even a sitting President?
Who, in the federal government, trafficked children to be raped by politicians & billionaires on Epstien’s Island; and who is still covering it up?
What is Durham’s definition of a felony?
Is election interference ever a felony, in your opinion Mr Durham?
Did the FBI provide you with their action plan to reform going forward and will you monitor their compliance, or lack of it?
Is it typical for these types of reports to NOT recommend some sort of action against those who perpetrated what was outlined in the report? If actions can be taken why were none recommended?
Oh yeah, French Hill and Dan Crenshaw will get to the bottom of this. NOT!
