ActualCornHusker Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 So what I'm gathering is that most of the ppl on this board read Horowitz's opinion that there was no political bias in opening the investigation and that opening it was properly predicated, then probably stopped reading. The reason I say "opinion" is because the scope of his investigation was very limited. Also during the hearing, he was very clear that his judgment of "no political bias" applied ONLY to the opening of the investigation (which requires a low threshold from the sounds of it) but would not say the same about the FISA process. Soooo yeah... Horowitz wrote his report in a very modest manner, but there will be some SERIOUS indictments of federal agents that result from this (or there should be). This whole scandal is a giant stain on both the FBI and the FISA courts, and pretty much obliterates any credibility that MSM had left (if they had any). Link to comment

ZRod Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 It's ironic that people can defend this report, despite not finding any smoking gun or political bias towards one party, and yet they can't be bothered to accept any evidence in the Mueller report. 3 Link to comment

Who said there's no truth? In most all cases, there's a very objective truth that's sometimes very complex and nuanced - not black and white like people want it to be. But you won't find much if any truth telling by watching or reading CNN, MSNBC, Vox, NPR, Fox News, etc... And the hearing with Horowitz was the legal questioning of a respectable inspector general on his thorough and damning investigation. I watched the CBS News feed which typically leans left, but even they admitted during breaks that the findings of the IG were pretty horrendous. Link to comment

Any clips or articles you can reference? Sounds like more right wing propaganda 2 me. Everywhere that isn't FOX has been reporting the Horowitz report is far from horrendous. 1 Link to comment

Guy Chamberlin Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Bump. What's happening with this investigation? How will it rank with Donald Trump's investigation into Obama's birth certificate, in which he said he had enlisted "the best investigators" who had come up with some "really amazing stuff"? Or Trump's claim that 3 million people had voted illegally in the 2016 election — which would have been a huge miscarriage of democracy demanding investigation of the highest order. (Also, interestingly enough, the same number by which Hillary Clinton won the general election, surely a coincidence.) Or will we shift our attention to yesterday's killing of three Americans in an attack by an al-Qaeda-linked group at a U.S. military base in Kenya, demanding a non-stop investigation of key administration figures using the Benghazi! model? 1 2 Link to comment
