Was clear to me from the start RussiaGate was a fraud initiated by the US (former) Intelligence community, DNC Complex, Hillary & Friends and abuse of power in the branches of U.S. Government.

RussiaGate's Missing Pieces --
What was not said in the Durham Report? | Seymour Hersh |
Durham's 306-page report was made public on May 15, and it pleased no one with its focus on the obvious. The journalist Susan Schmidt, whose by-line was a must-read when she was a reporter for the Washington Post, pointed out on Racket News that Durham said the FBI would have done less damage to its reputation if it had scrutinized the questionable actions of the Clinton campaign in 2016: the Feds "might at least have cast a critical eye on the phony evidence they were gathering."
Schmidt was highlighting a moment in Durham's report where he hints at the real story: RussiaGate was a fraud initiated by the Clinton campaign and abetted by political reporters in Washington and senior FBI officials who chose to look the other way. Durham writes: "In late July 2016, US intelligence agencies obtained insight into Russian intelligence analysis alleging that U.S. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton had approved a campaign 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."
He continues: "this intelligence--taken at face value--was arguably highly relevant and exculpatory because it could be read in fuller context, and in combination with other facts, to suggest that materials such as the Steele Dossier reports and the Alfa Bank allegations . . . were part of a political effort to smear a political opponent and to use the resources of the federal government's law enforcement and intelligence agencies in support of a political objective."
Durham goes on to cite many instances of public statements and private communications of Clinton campaign staffers that were "consistent with the substance of the purported plan." He finds evidence to suggest that "at least some officials within the campaign were seeking information about the FBI's response to the DNC hack, which would be consistent with, and a means of furthering, the purported plan." He adds that "the campaign's funding of the Steele Reports and Alfa Bank allegations . . . provide some additional support for the credibility to the information set forth in the Clinton Plan intelligence."
However, his report focuses on who knew about the Clinton Plan intelligence and when they knew of it, while "the details of the Clinton Plan intelligence," "facts that heightened the potential relevance of this intelligence to" Durham's inquiry, and his team's "efforts to verify or refute the key claims found in this intelligence" are confined to a Classified Appendix.
It became evident to some members of Durham's staff that the real story was not about whether or not Trump had pee parties in a Moscow hotel room--one of the headline-producing allegations in the Steele Dossier that consumed the Washington press corps in the aftermath of Trump's victory in the 2016 election. The issue was whether the Clinton campaign, in its constant leaking of false accusations and false data, had crossed a line.
The investigation in U.S. Congress was by design "tunnel vision" to search for evidence in relation to Russia, not Ukraine (favoring the election of a Democrat) and not Israel and Arab states angered by the Obama/Biden nuclear agreement with Iran, so-called JCPOA to stop uranium enrichment and the development of a nuclear weapon.

Contempt of Congress a Bi-partisan Disease on the Hill
Comer & Grassley to Wray: Provide the Unclassified Documents or Face Contempt
"Today, FBI Director Wray confirmed the existence of the FD-1023 form alleging then-Vice President Biden engaged in a criminal bribery scheme with a foreign national. However, Director Wray did not commit to producing the documents subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee. While Director Wray - after a month of refusing to even acknowledge that the form existed - has offered to allow us to see the documents in person at FBI headquarters, we have been clear that anything short of producing these documents to the House Oversight Committee is not in compliance with the subpoena. If the FBI fails to hand over the FD-1023 form as required by the subpoena, the House Oversight Committee will begin contempt of Congress proceedings," said Chairman Comer (R-Ky).
"While the FBI has apparently leaked classified information to the news media in recent weeks, jeopardizing its own human sources, it continues to treat Congress like second class citizens by refusing to provide a specific unclassified record. Director Wray confirmed what my whistleblowers have told me pursuant to legally protected disclosures: the FBI-generated document is real, but the bureau has yet to provide it to Congress in defiance of a legitimate congressional subpoena. This failure comes with consequences," Senator Grassley (R-Iowa) said.
