The Department of Justice Inspector General’s (IG) report into the FBI lying to the FISA Court to get warrants to spy on the Trump campaign is 433 pages. It took AG Bill Barr one paragraph to translate what all of it means in the real world. Oh, and don’t pick it up because you might burn yourself.
The Inspector General’s report now makes clear that the FBI launched an intrusive investigation of a U.S. presidential campaign on the thinnest of suspicions that, in my view, were insufficient to justify the steps taken. It is also clear that, from its inception, the evidence produced by the investigation was consistently exculpatory. Nevertheless, the investigation and surveillance was pushed forward for the duration of the campaign and deep into President Trump’s administration. In the rush to obtain and maintain FISA surveillance of Trump campaign associates, FBI officials misled the FISA court, omitted critical exculpatory facts from their filings, and suppressed or ignored information negating the reliability of their principal source. …[T]he malfeasance and misfeasance detailed in the Inspector General’s report reflects a clear abuse of the FISA process.Because the IG has no right to subpoena and can’t lock anyone up, he can only refer people for prosecution. Currently, most of the people who conducted the abuse have been fired and were out of the purview of the IG.

If ever we are to attempt to deter this from happening in the future, the fisa abuse, the violating constitutional rights, the framing of an innocent person.....there must be the most harshest of penalties....execution.
The IG is covering up for the DEMOCRAT FBI. 17 Mistakes ????? No 17 Lies to SPY on Trump.
Soooo basically a political appointee of the man being accused of wrong doing refutes yet again another investigation against the boss. WHat a surprise.
Yes 10:59of course you are referring to the most transparent admin ever...OBAMA AND HIS appointed IG..face it TRUMP IN 2020.
So, PLEASE stop talking about all these crimes and tell me who is being arrested, who loses their pension, and who is going to prison, because, from what I read, a whole lot of people in power lied to the court, misrepresented evidence, illegally tried to swing an election (the "insurance plan" THEY talked about, abused their authority, lied under oath, and generally did whatever the hell they wanted under the guise of "we know what's best for "we, the people".
Put SOMEONE in prison.
Or, openly admit there are Two Sets of Laws. One for the serfs and one for the rulers.
"We, the people" are going to hang a whole lot of these slimy bastids.
Keep cheering.
I agree with the above comments. WTH is going on. Comey is bragging that he is a free man - upstanding man. That Trump was lying. Would someone please do something.
