It's all part of the plan. Make them think there is nothing in it and there secretly is. when there isn't, they will claim it was secretly deleted and that barr will arrest them all.

Then trump will fire the IG and the report will be rewritten.

and low level problems way out of proportion.

Strzok explained it perfectly when he testified to Congress a year or two back - individual agents may have political bias, but there are so many layers of review that political bias is almost always weeded out.

I think Horowitz figured “they can shoot me now, or shoot me later” - so he opted for getting shot later, after Durham’s report comes out.
