Durham testifies before Congress
-
Comey knew the dossier was based on lousy (made up) intelligence. He withheld that from the agents assigned to Crossfire Hurricane.
JORDAN: Can you tell the committee what happened when you took that referral memo, and shared it with one of those agents?
DURHAM: We interviewed the first supervisor on the Crossfire investigation, the operational person. We showed him the intelligence information. He indicated he had never seen it before. He immediately became emotional, and got up and left the room with his lawyer, spent some time in the hallway, came back.
JORDAN: He was ticked off, wasn’t he? He was ticked off because this was something he should have had as an agent on the case. This was important information that the director of the FBI kept from the people doing the investigation.
DURHAM: The information was kept from them.

So far, the take away is that the FBI, or at least senior management at the FBI, has an ideology problem.

Durham didn't go quite that far. He was careful to say that there was clear animus toward Trump in senior levels (McCabe, et al), but he stopped short of saying that the investigation was politically motivated. He didn't say it, but it was obvious from his comments.
