William Barr, the attorney general who tapped John Durham to investigate the Russian collusion hoax against candidate and President Donald Trump, clarified that neither President Obama nor Vice President Biden were targeted. In his memoir One Damn Thing After Another: Memoirs of an Attorney General, Barr praised Robert Mueller and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Mueller to probe Trump. He acknowledged Rosenstein’s “important contributions” but noted their absence in Durham’s June 21 testimony. Meanwhile, Durham criticized the FBI for failing to scrutinize collusion claims, applying inconsistent standards to the Clinton and Trump campaigns, and relying on uncorroborated opposition research like the Steele dossier.
The investigation revealed a pattern of misconduct, including the FBI’s role in Operation Mid-Year Exam to clear Hillary Clinton and Operation Crossfire Hurricane to target Trump. Key figures, such as FBI boss James Comey and agents Strzok and McCabe, faced no criminal charges despite alleged misconduct. The case of Seth Rich, a DNC staffer murdered in 2016, remains unresolved. His laptop was later found in FBI possession, but details about its contents remain undisclosed.
Durham’s findings underscore the FBI’s failure to uphold accountability, with officials resisting transparency efforts and seeking to delay disclosure of critical information. The article calls for a full-scale investigation into Rich’s murder, urging Congress to pursue answers without political restraint. It emphasizes that “there is no statute of limitations on murder” and frames the fight against institutional abuse as a battle for truth.

I commend you for reminding other readers of the very peculiar Seth Rich saga. A few months after he was murdered, we had a Republican president and the Republicans held majorities in both the Senate and the House. One wonders why none of them sought answers.
How does anyone investigate Crossfire Hurricane without having Obama and Biden in the crosshairs?
