Sometimes the loudest person in the room is not the strongest. Department of Justice Special Counsel John Durham showed how accurate this truism was today.
Fox News reported that Durham delivered a “searing comeback” to Tennessee Democratic Rep. Steve Cohen’s nasty attacks on his character during Wednesday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing regarding the Durham Report.
As Cristina Laila previously reported, Durham released his final report in May concluding the FBI had no verified intel when it opened the Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Trump in 2016.
Durham also blasted Hillary Clinton for her “plan to stir up a scandal against US Presidential candidate Donald Trump by tying him to Putin and the Russians’ hacking of the Democratic National Committee.
TGP previously reported that then-Attorney General Bill Barr appointed Durham as a Special Counsel in October 2020 and tasked him with investigating the Crossfire Hurricane investigation targeting the Trump campaign and administration.
In July of 2016, Peter Strzok opened a counter-intel investigation into Trump’s camp dubbed “Crossfire Hurricane” on suspicions (based on no evidence) that the Russians had infiltrated Trump’s circle.
For years the DOJ and FBI resisted the release of the “electronic communication” used to launch the scam investigation because it revealed the entire spying operation was a scam.
Cohen started off his inquisition with a series of lies. He falsely claimed Durham put together his report to help President Donald Trump.
I’ve tried to follow your report. Mr. Donald Trump, Jr. would’ve called it a nothingburger. You got no convictions, you got nothing! It was all set up to hurt the Mueller report, which was correct (a lie) and was redacted to hurt the Bidens and to help Trump.
