  Sorry it took you a while to catch up.
  
  All I'm going to tell you is, never assume you know who you're talking to on the internet. 😂
context: Sorry, but even in this age of goldfish-brain news cycles, we cannot allow a certain development from last week to just fade into obscurity.
  
  Thank you! This should have made a much, much bigger impact and it shouldn't disappear into the Trump news hole. Durham's investigation did exactly what Trumpians claimed the Russia investigation did -- while proving the Russia investigation didn't do those things! After an investigation that went on twice as long as the Russia investigation! And it found evidence of ADDITIONAL TRUMP FINANCIAL CRIMES! And Barr lied about the Durham investigation constantly! 
  This shouldn't have left the front page for weeks. >

  If Trump says Russia three times fast, 1/6 of the country will decide Trump is the real victim in this. "Russia, Russia, Russia," Trump will say every time he mentions it, and his sycophants will nod and send him money. >
  
  And if Trump says Russia three times fast, 3/6 of the left will take that as confirmation, that trump was a sleeper agent for the Kremlin the whole time >
  
  I mean, just yesterday Trump publicly said he still believes Putin over the reports of the entire US intelligence apparatus. I don't think "sleeper agent" is the right description for someone who openly and actively promoted Russian interests over those of the United States. >

  LOL Kremlin "screamer agent" donald j trump. >
  
  This isn't like a lot of Trump-news-Fatigue stories. 
  It's objectively much worse, the Attorney General (head of the Department of Justice and chief law enforcement officer of the Federal Government), and his hand-picked hard-nosed prosecutor, John Durham mis-represented their investigation of the 2016 Russia investigation to the American Public... and then actively gave cover for Trump in the 2020 campaign to claim he was being persecuted.
  
  By the summer of 2020, it was clear Durham's [investigation into the investigators of the 2016 Russian election interference and secret Trump support]  had failed, and the Justice Department inspector general published a report that found no evidence the FBI was politically motivated in 2016. But Trump was absolutely losing it on Fox News, floating that Obama and Biden would be indicted for their offenses against him—"the single biggest political crime in the history of our country"—and the only way they wouldn't be was if his two pet prosecutors, Barr and Durham, decided to be "politically correct." (God forbid!) Enter the Times:
  Against that backdrop, Mr. Barr and Mr. Durham did not shut down their inquiry when the search for intelligence abuses hit a dead end. With the inspector general’s inquiry complete, they turned to a new rationale: a hunt for a basis to accuse the Clinton campaign of conspiring to defraud the government by manufacturing the suspicions that the Trump campaign had colluded with Russia, along with scrutinizing what the F.B.I. and intelligence officials knew about the Clinton campaign’s actions.
  So having failed to produce the goods in time to give Trump some political ammunition for the 2020 election, they just kept the investigation going with an entirely new focus? 
  They came up with nothing, so they started to work the name "Clinton" in there? How is that even the same investigation? It isn't, except for one crucial respect: It continued as a vehicle for Trump's shadowy accusations against his political opponents. As long as the investigation was "ongoing," he had extra salt on his claims that anyone caught up in it was disgustingly corrupt.
  In this respect, it's a lot like the Ukraine extortion that got Trump impeached the first time: He just wanted Zelenskyy to announce Ukraine was opening an investigation into the Bidens. The subtext, of course, was that Trump would do the rest. >
  
  Yea, in the realm of our news i think this shit might on to something.  I think we gotta start lookin hard into these timelines and all involved. 
  what im interested in is the possible connections that NY fbi agent and this story has as the dude has been fingered as a potential leaker in said office in relation to clintons emails and comey in oct16 and the times article referenced durham was using shit russian intel. 
  following that trail it leads to deripaska and derkach, the former funded the fbi agent, the latter has been used by OAN to push the biden/bruisma narrative.  Grassley and Johnson were close to subpoenaing derkach but dropped the investigation in sept20, they were also chastised for using bad russian intel. both are tied to manafort ghuliani et al.
  Yea something fishy here. Especially with this story following the heels of the FBI agent arrest. >
  
  The theory of Right-wing Projection is now established law. >
  
  It's almost like he was projecting. >
  
  the whole investigations into biden is a witch hunt too. >
  
  I think the biggest mistake everyone made was not realizing from the minute he came down that gaudy, trashy, gold escalator that literally everything that came out of his mouth was projection. He gave a roadmap to his lies and to his plans but we didn't realize he was literally telling us the truth. >
  
  I mean, I and tens of millions of other Americans realized on day 1. >
  
  No, I really don't think that's accurate. 10s of millions of people already knew he was a liar, and probably broke, and insane, but it took a while before "it's projection" became the main response to anything he said and that literally every single thing he said was about him and the gop.
  Everything from "Mexico isn't sending their best" to "Stolen election" was about him. >
  
  It is accurate though. The sky really fell for us the day he won, and we were all utterly and completely vindicated in the end. Sorry it took you a while to catch up. The good news for you: being right from the start ultimately ended up meaning nothing.
