BREAKING… AG Bill Barr Announces Durham Probe is Now a CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION — Subpoenas Coming! Deep State in Panic!

by Jim Hoft October 24, 2019 823 Comments
Sean Hannity opened his show on Thursday tonight with breaking news —  Attorney General Bill Barr says Prosecutor John Durham’s investigation is now a CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION!

** The Change in Status Gives Investigators Ability to Subpoena Witnesses, Use Grand Jury

** NYT Reports that DOJ Durham probe has “shifted” from an administrative review of the Russia investigation “to a criminal inquiry.”




For more than two years, President Trump has repeatedly attacked the Russia investigation, portraying it as a hoax and illegal even months after the special counsel closed it. Now, Mr. Trump’s own Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into how it all began.

Justice Department officials have shifted an administrative review of the Russia investigation closely overseen by Attorney General William P. Barr to a criminal inquiry, according to two people familiar with the matter. The move gives the prosecutor running it, John H. Durham, the power to subpoena for witness testimony and documents, to impanel a grand jury and to file criminal charges.

…] The move also creates an unusual situation in which the Justice Department is conducting a criminal investigation into itself.

Mr. Barr’s reliance on Mr. Durham, a widely respected and veteran prosecutor who has investigated C.I.A. torture and broken up Mafia rings, could help insulate the attorney general from accusations that he is doing the president’s bidding and putting politics above justice.

It was not clear what potential crime Mr. Durham is investigating, nor when the criminal investigation was prompted. A Justice Department spokeswoman declined to comment.

[…] Federal investigators need only a “reasonable indication” that a crime has been committed to open an investigation, a much lower standard than the probable cause required to obtain search warrants. However, “there must be an objective, factual basis for initiating the investigation; a mere hunch is insufficient,” according to Justice Department guidelines.

Keep dreaming.

The real storm will be when Trump faces criminal charges.

James Clapper involved with felony leaks of Flynn discussions with Russian counterpart Kislyak

10/25/2019



  thegatewaypundit Reports: The news out tonight is devastating for Obama’s former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper   Clapper is connected to the felony leak of General Flynn’s discussion with Russian Kislyak before President Trump’s 2017 Inauguration!Former President Barack Obama and his gang of crooks, goons and criminals are in deep trouble tonight.
                                      General Flynn’s attorney, the great Sidney Powell, released a number of pages of information that are totally damning to Obama’s Deep State actors and villains.  In one piece of Powell’s team notes that the FBI asked a question of General Flynn during their interrogation of him in the White House.  We know that the 302 was doctored by Lisa Page per prior notes from Powell and now we know that the 302 was doctored by adding an entire question and answer of the General that was later used to criminally indict the him. In addition, Powell’s filing with the court released tonight show that Obama’s former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper was involved in leaking the General’s discussion with Russian Kislyak before President Trump’s 2017 Inauguration!
                                   We may have our first clue to the very likely conspiracy charges that will come out of AG Barr's and Durham's investigation into the origins of the Russia probe, that has now turned into a criminal investigation. The following reveal basically indicates that James Clapper was involved with the felony leak of General Flynn's discussions with Russian counterpart Kislyak before President Trump's 2017 Presidential Inauguration, and this new information of Clapper being behind this felony leak of this discussion involving General Flynn and Russian counterpart Kislyak comes directly from General Flynn's defense.
​                                      This news not only comes when AG Barr's and Durham's investigation of the origins of the Russia probe has now turned into a criminal investigation, but comes as Durham's questioning of both Brennan and Clapper are incoming. Clapper should be hit with at least one conspiracy charge out of Durham and Barr's investigation, that former Trump aide Papadopolous is hinting at.

HUGE!!….. FLYNN DOCS DROP — James Clapper Connected to Felony Leaks of General Flynn’s Discussions with Russian in Early 2017!

KABOOM!!!  The news out tonight is devastating for Obama’s former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper who is connected to the felony leak of General Flynn’s discussion with Russian Kislyak before President Trump’s 2017 Inauguration!

General Flynn’s attorney, the great Sidney Powell, released a number of pages of information that are totally damning to Obama’s Deep State actors and villains.  We know that the 302 was doctored by Lisa Page per prior notes from Powell and now we know that the 302 was doctored by adding an entire question and answer of the General that was later used to criminally indict him.

In addition, Powell’s filing with the court released tonight shows that Obama’s former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper was involved in leaking the General’s discussion with Russian Kislyak before President Trump’s 2017 Inauguration!


Powell has asked the DOJ for records related to Baker [emphasis added] –

Flynn has requested records of Col. James Baker because he was Halper’s handler in the Office of Net Assessment in the Pentagon, and ONA Director Baker regularly lunched with Washing Post reporter James Ignatius.  The defense has requested phone records of James Clapper to confirm his contacts with Washington Post reporter Ignatius – especially on January 10, 2017, when Clapper told Ignatius in words to the effect of “Take the kill shot on Flynn”.  It cannot escape mention that the press has long had transcripts of the Kislyak calls the the government has denied to the defense.

How many times have you told us the storm is here?

That's right, you've had to change what "the storm" is multiple times too because each time it's a nothing burger.  You and your fellow conspiratards get a hold of some information you don't understand, think it means one thing then you get let down when you shed your ignorance and learn the truth after it's finally spelt out to you like a child watching sesame street.

What happens when they conclude that again, the Russia Probe and the Mueller investigation started because of an admission from a member of the Trump Campaign team?

Don't forget, Downer is a Right Wing conservative through and through.  He's a 3rd generation politician.  He's as "republican" as you can get as an Australian, yet you think he's in on it...

All these storms and conspiracies exist for one reason and one reason only, Trump makes mistakes and breaks laws and his fans for whatever reason think he's infallible and needs excuses to avoid the most basic and obvious truth.
