The extent of John Durham's face plant seems to know no end.

‘Clinton Plan’ Emails Were Likely Made by Russian Spies, Declassified Report Shows​

The Trump-era special counsel who scoured the Russia investigation for wrongdoing gathered evidence that undermines a theory pushed by some Republicans that Hillary Clinton’s campaign conspired to frame Donald J. Trump for colluding with Moscow in the 2016 election, information declassified on Thursday shows.

The information, a 29-page annex to the special counsel’s 2023 report, reveals that a foundational document for that theory was most likely stitched together by Russian spies. The document is a purported email from July 27, 2016, that said Mrs. Clinton had approved a campaign proposal to tie Mr. Trump to Russia to distract from the scandal over her use of a private email server.

The release of the annex adds new details to the public’s understanding of a complex trove of 2016 Russian intelligence reports analyzing purported emails that Russian hackers stole from Americans. It also shows how the special counsel, John H. Durham, went to great lengths to try to prove that several of the emails were real, only to ultimately conclude otherwise.

Try as he might to complete his assigned task, that being to find wrongdoing in the Russia investigation for trump's political benefit, he failed. It was an extensive investigation that began in 2019 and continued until 2023. His report was palpably anticipated by the Right with expectations it would "blow the lid off" nefarious acts by the Obama admin. He found none.

DNI Tulsi Gabbard, no doubt at trump's direction, has tried to rekindle accusations against Obama and his staff. It's been another epic failure because, to coin a phrase, there is no there, there.

There's a NYT paywall. Which page of the annex states that Durham concluded otherwise?

Squirm harder, scumbag.
Your SEDITIOUS INSURRECTIONIST GRAND CONSPIRACY has been fully EXPOSED.
It's time for you demented Marxist zombies to PAY FOR YOUR TREASONOUS TREACHERY.

OP knows Hillary and Obama and the Obama intel and investigation apparatus set up the whole Russia frame job on Trump.

The pathetic defense is laughable.

THE “VAX” is safe and effective, right? Get the vaccine and you will not get or spread COVID…..RIGHT? How much time did you lefty ***** waste arguing that ******* LIE?

Funny how none of them mentioned that the email was determined to be a fabrication.

The Following has already adopted Gabbard's horseshit allegations (which are nothing more than another trump inspired diversion) as gospel even as this declassified info shows Durham's utter failure in finding fault with Obama admin officials though he tried mightily to do so.

The New York Times may be listed as co-conspirators once the indictments start dropping.

They had to try SOMETHING.

We'll see what's true over time. But they sure aren't very subtle about trying to change the subject.

Durham very much wanted to achieve the goal Billy the Bagman gave him. Find dirt on the Obama admin trump could use in the 2020 campaign against Biden. His corrupt motivation eventually became too much for one of his high ranking staff members.

The release of the annex was no exception. John Ratcliffe, the C.I.A. director, said in a statement that the materials proved that suspicions of Russian collusion stemmed from “a coordinated plan to prevent and destroy Donald Trump’s presidency.”

And Kash Patel, the F.B.I. director, who has a long history of pushing false claims about the Russia investigation, declared on social media that the annex revealed “evidence that the Clinton campaign plotted to frame President Trump and fabricate the Russia collusion hoax.”

In reality, the annex shows the opposite, indicating that a key piece of supposed evidence for the claim that Mrs. Clinton approved a plan to tie Mr. Trump to Russia is not credible: Mr. Durham concluded that the email from July 27, 2016, and a related one dated two days earlier were probably manufactured.

Gaslighting has become routine among members of the regime.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Lets see it, OP.

What parts of the Steele Dossier are true.

You still claim Trump is a Russian Spy….so prove it.

 

[berg80]

Mr. Durham’s report also mentioned that Mrs. Clinton and others in the campaign dismissed the allegation as ridiculous, positing that it was Russian disinformation. But Mr. Durham banished to the annex concrete details he had found that bolstered her campaign’s rebuttal, burying until now the conclusion that the email he called the “Clinton Plan intelligence” was almost certainly a product of Russian disinformation.

The annex shows that the person who supposedly sent the July 27 email, Leonard Benardo of the Open Society Foundations network, told Mr. Durham in 2021 that he had never seen the message and did not write it. The network is the philanthropic arm of the liberal financier George Soros, who has been made out to be a villain by Russian state media and by some American conservatives.

That deceitful bastard.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Funny how the lefties ignore the LIES OF THE STEELE DOSSIER.

The document that was THEIR BIBLE AT ONE TIME.

Verified bullshit, but that does not stop lefty lies.

Time to subpoena the emails, smart phones, and servers.

Durham did that. He couldn't find any evidence of the emails in the report.
