DOJ Watchdog Finds No Political Bias In Russia Investigation | The Last Word | MSNBC

The New York Times’ James B. Stewart tells Lawrence O'Donnell that the Justice Department Inspector General report has "debunked every sensational claim that President Trump has made about a deep state out to get him." He also says Attorney General Barr has been "weaponizing" the report by "spinning these facts" to undercut the compelling evidence that “crimes were possibly being committed” and the FBI had to investigate. Aired on 12/9/19.

DOJ Watchdog Finds No Political Bias In Russia Investigation | The Last Word | MSNBC

  1. Well it look like all of you Ttumper has nothing to back you up but a hand full of lie’s. How do you feel now FOOL’S.

  2. Imagine how damning this report would have been prior to the age of “Alternative Facts”. Welcome to Orwell’s “1984” friends.

    1. @Plutot Crever There was a “secret” investigation? I must have a top secret clearance then, because I knew from the beginning that Russia was influencing our election. Or maybe you’re just ignorant.

    2. @Plutot Crever “Although the investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts, the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.”

      Yeah, this paragraph establishes Trump knew about the Russian interference. The fact that Trump and his campaign staff accepted it and did not report it is simply un-American. But the key words here are “did not establish” which is lawyer speak to say that an allegation may be true, but there is not enough evidence available to prove it. Mueller actually said much of the potential evidence was unobtainable during his investigation. We all know how much Trump likes to use his presidential authority to keep evidence out of the hands of investigators.

    3. @blink yeah hes also leaving out the over 150 contacts between the campaign and Russian cut outs, agents and government employees and that multiple people including trump lied under oath to Mueller

    4. Hey, bunch of morons,
      This is a direct quote from the Mueller Report:
      “The special counsel found that Russia did interfere with the election, but did not find that the Trump campaign, or anyone associated with it, conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in these efforts, despite multiple efforts from Russian-affiliated individuals to assist the Trump campaign.” – Mueller Report

  3. Of course not. The FBI was and still is not run by a crook of the bill barr calibre, meaning, there arent partisan hacks at work who will do anything to serve, for example, a criminal such as trump. These crooks and traitors that make up the trump administration project their own agenda and misconduct on the good people who do the important work because it interferes with their plans.

    1. @Justice Boofer. . . Oh, well that makes sense. I guess I just showed that I’m old. lol and thanks for the suggestion, I think I will go have me a beer. Those are beer mugs, right?

  4. So this would be the divisive chapter of our history that Impeachment brings. Barr is political, recuse!

    1. Barr is pathetic just like Pompeo, McConnell, Mulvaney & the list goes on & on & on & they all need 2 be sent out the door & off the government payroll 🤨
