The Durham Report and the Deep State: A Week in Review

Special Counsel John Durham found that there was never any information to justify opening the FBI’s original investigation into whether former President Donald Trump and his campaign colluded with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election. Durham was appointed to investigate the origins of that probe, known inside the FBI as "Crossfire Hurricane," just weeks after then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller completed his years-long investigation that yielded no evidence of criminal conspiracy or coordination between Trump and Russia. Key players who furthered the Trump-Russia narrative include Hillary Clinton, her campaign, and the DNC, opposition research firm Fusion GPS, Christopher Steele, former FBI Director James Comey, and former Deputy Assistant Director of Counterintelligence Peter Strzok.
